Not applicable

The update normally will ask if you want to run the update. however I have read here that in some situations the update will install by its self.

My own experience has been a notification asking if I wanted to update. And one of my phones is a Motorola Razr

Well I hope I get to make a choice as I can't afford things to go wrong. Battery already doesn't last and anything else would be a nightmare for me. I'm not good at all with tech stuff even as simple as soft reboots or safe mode.

If you go into settings/ manage apps/ and find the download manager app and disable it you should not recieve the notification anymore...It worked on mine...matt

When viewing Manage Apps, All ... scroll to the very bottom of the list for your disabled apps (that way you can re-enable them if you need to).

This is NOT the worst phone by far!!! Go try a Droid Eris or an LG Vortex and you wll beg for your Razr back...I have had mine for a year and can get a full days use (unless i use the crap out of it)

I use to get good battery life a long time ago - now 2 hours of use and its time to charge or goes dead immediately. I live in a major metroplex area and have a hard time getting or keeping connections never happened with the original. Nothing against you thanks for your input.

Your battery life issue could be related to the phone looking for a signal.  You might try turning off cellular data (if not needed, of course) when you see it struggling to find a signal ... that might improve your battery life.
