V3 RAZR won't boot

My year-old RAZR randomly stopped working yesterday afternoon. It sometimes shows the "Hello Moto" screen and then goes black after, and sometimes it just shows a blank white screen. I tried charging the battery and nothing changes, and I also tried a different RAZR battery and I still have the same problem. The liquid damage indicator is white. I used the phone in a light drizzle so some drops got on the phone, but it was hardly nothing, and if that little rain actually broke the RAZR, I'm not getting another one. O_o

Any advice?

You will have to buy another Razor, there is nothing else u can do, unless u can solder tiny microchips and u know wat everything is inside the phone.

I was trying to update my software for the Motorola V3r phone (T-Mobile) and now the screen just says--- Boot Loader 0A.52. SW Version: R3443U2_G_0E.C0.15R Code Corrupt.

While on the charger it says all that and ------- OK to Program Connect USB Data Cable------ The only problem is that it will not charge the battery so I can't program the phone because it dies. Any suggestions?

@ reallyyessir

1) threadjack
2) get another person's battery, or get a stand alone charger where you can charge the battery without the phone.

I'm kinda having the same problem. Except I was copying skin files to the Skins folder of the phone and the power went out in the house... I then disconected the phone and pulled the battery and put it back in and now it mainly just will pop up Hellomoto and sometimes I can get it to do the Alltel loading screen but then it just goes back to the Hellomoto screen.

I pluged up the phone to charge without power on and it showed the charging screen as the skin I was copying over to the phone... How can I fix this?

just flash your phone, you can't fix it without putting a fresh monster pack on. it has happened to me too, it's a *****!

Ok, for some reason P2k commander is reading and working the phone while its turned off... so maybe I can fix it this way..

Ok, it shows that all the skins were deleted when the power turned off... Except for the one I was copying...

Ok, well I tried fixing it and I got it fixed enough to get it to boot into bootloader... so I'm reflashing the Monster...

good luck!

Ok, I got it back... but for some reason all the files are still on the phone, just hiden... I need to figure out how to revert the phone back to stock... fully reset this phone back the way it was. How do I do that? I had 37mb of free space on it, and now only 32... I dislike that!

37 mgs on a razr?

it can depand on the mp that u put on, some of them take alot of space compared to others. do u remember the software that u had? it's usually on the back of the phone under the battery.
