Get the firmware here on from my site at http://earlbentley.net/Download3.html or http://modmymoto.com:
So, the menu paths provided in the various modding descriptions are based on this firmware and the 12-icon
mma_ucp/dcp setup. If you’re on a different version of firmware, yours may be different, depending on your network
provider’s customizations. CAVEAT: If you’re using Rasputin007’s new 16-icon mma_ucp/dcp, then the menu paths will
be slightly different. But, this guide will provide menu paths that should at least point you in the right direction and get
you close. The idea is to help you navigate your phone quickly and also to give you something to help you systematically
address frequently recurring tasks. Take the Table 1 checklist and personalize it so it fits your specific needs!!.
Why to mod and Why this Guide:
So, you own a Motorola Razr V3x. Odds are you have been roaming around the web reading random sites, getting blurbs
about "seems", "flashing", "flexing", and more. You're confused, lost, and ready to pay somebody to do this, or give up.
Well, that’s what this site is for: to help. Let’s talk about modding the Motorola Razr. First off, why mod the thing at all?
Well, lots of reasons! First, it’s cool. You can personalize your phone (change the outer picture, make it louder, use
different fonts, change the look of it all, etc). Also, changing the software on the phone can increase your reception, your
volume, the menu speed, and much more. (Quote from the MotoGuide)
History of this Guide (MoGu V3xPG) or “How it Came About”
Well, the reason I started compiling this modding information was because I was lazy. In searching every forum known to
man, trying to find mods and “How-Tos” for my new V3x, I was inundated with the amount of information that was
available. So much so, that when I later tried to return to this information to refresh my memory, I couldn’t find a lot of the
stuff again. So, I started jotting down URLs and copying information into MS Word files. Then, as I started trying mods
and screwing them up, I had to recover from those mistakes which sometimes resulted in me having to set them up all
over again. Well you can imagine after doing this again, and again, and again, I got tired of having to think about all the
things I needed to do so I created a checklist (Table 1 - General and Specific Personalization/Configuration Tasks) to help
me do those redundant tasks faster. As I continued my modding education, my research continued to provide more in-
depth and complex mods—even stuff that I wasn’t ready to try yet but knew I would be someday—so I grabbed that stuff
and put it in my archives until such day as my skills (and courage) were sufficiently mature enough to try them.
Well, you can see from this guide, the vast amount of information I’ve put together and continue to put together. In data
mining the forums, I noticed that the same questions were being asked and the process of repeatedly answering these
questions was taking the knowledgeable Gurus a lot of valuable time. So, I began to make this guide available to people
so they could do their basic research; educate themselves and post questions to the forum when they needed
clarification, or when they were stuck. Now, The Moto Guide posted on http://themotoguide.com is a wonderful guide
and it helped me more than I can say. So, my approach was not to replace that guide but to augment the information it
provided and personalize it—down to the menu command level if possible--and put a lot of information in one place so
people wouldn’t have to scour the threads and guides provided in different forums and websites. Voila! The MoGu V3x
Personalization Guide was born.
And that’s the story………………………………..
