phone went black only menu on bottom (Home) (Return) (search) stays lit.....how can i reset this phone if nothing is working?
try doing a soft reset, holding the power and volume down and it should restart
it won't erase anything, its like taking the battery out
Is there any difference at all between doing this or a battery pull?
not really, but you can't pull the battery on a Razr Maxx
My fault I don't have the Maxx. Just trying to educate myself
Hi mm123,The option provided by commonsense101 is the same first step I would have recommended. Did this work for you? Please keep us posted as we want to determine if the screen needs further troubleshooting. I also ask that if it didn't power back you let us know of any other screen issues you may be experiencing. Such as a broken screen or any other damage including liquid damage.Thank you,MariaC_VZWPlease follow us on Twitter @VZWSupport
