I got one. It would be nice if it's on android 14 and I can unlock it immediately but for $65 I'm willing to put it in a drawer for a year.
If anyone else is looking for it, I found shortyman24's instructions quoted here: https://slickdeals.net/f/18686347-metro-by-t-mobile-256gb-motorola-razr-2024-5g-gray-30-days-60-prepaid-plan-65-free-shipping?p=179753944#post179753944
And here is the software to unlock it if you're lucky and get an older android version: https://xdaforums.com/t/how-unloc...t-90088027
But it seems like they're mostly sending on ones that are on android 15 now.

Community Reviews

The Razr 2024 deal is mainly attractive as a cheap way to get a foldable phone and, for some units, a path to Metro or T Mobile unlock. The phone includes a preinstalled screen protector, ships without a signature requirement, and can be activated with eSIM or a physical SIM. The biggest draw is the low first month price, with extra lines sometimes dropping to $30 or $35. The main catch is unlock uncertainty, since success appears tied to Android 14 and older security patches, while Android 15 or later updates often trigger server errors or a 180 day lock message. Screen durability and fold damage also remain a concern, making it a tempting but risky pickup.

  • The unlock process can succeed on some Android 14 builds using the XDA unlock tool.

  • The deal can work for multiple Razr orders when the first activated phone enables ordering additional units.

    StrongManatee366

  • The phone can become usable on an existing Metro account after the activation and registration steps.

    CyanWing

  • The phone can be set up with eSIM when no SIM card is included in the box.

    TheCochese

  • Unlock eligibility can fail depending on Android version and security patch timing, including Android 15 units.

    shortyman24StrongManatee366shortyman24

  • The Moto Unlock app can get stuck on a SERVER_NOT_REACHABLE error code 200 during the unlock step.

    CyanWingTheCocheseb2bs

  • Unlock attempts can show an 180-day requirement screen and remove the permanent unlock option.

    TheCocheseTheCochesemkm85

  • The fold screen can be at risk for damage, making the $65 offer a potential gamble if the screen fails.

Another update. I received my 2nd razr with android version 14. I was able to unlock it with the xda unlock tool.
Can you post the step by step process and did you follow the same steps that were posted before or any other steps ?

I just followed the steps were posted on slickdeals. I had a T-Mobile sim inside the phone. I had to reset the unlock app to get the "permanent unlock" link appear. I was surprised to see unlock success and ask to reboot my phone.

phone is back in stock. When trying to add my 4th line it no longer automatically gives me the discounted $35 plan. Instead, it lets me choose. However, the $65 plan is not an option. Now it's only giving me a small discount on the phone. Any ideas anyone?

Razr needs to be Android 14 and Jan 2025 security patch. I think anything after security patch March 2025 or Android 15 it will not work. Its on the other thread or look at my post history. So disable system updates and auto reboot updates asap.

Also, my 2nd phone box is date is 05/2025 its probably has Android 15 oof
First off, thanks a lot for posting this! Silly me, I activated and updated the device to the latest A15 (October 25 patch) as soon as I got it. I did install the unlock tool and connected and even got as far as Try Permanent Unlock showing up in Metro Unlock app, but unfortunately that app throws SERVER_NOT_REACHABLE CODE=200 error whatever I click in it. Tried with wifi on/off and mobile/data on/off and that VPN in the app on/off as well. Same result. Is this how latest A15 security patch manifest itself?

Interesting, thanks! Maybe its my browser. It's still showing "this item is only available in stores".


I tried in Safari and it just says "Out of Stock".

so, does think Unlock only work if one didn't activate the phone with Metro? Or everpresent SERVER_NOT_REACHABLE error in Unlock indicates something else is wrong?

Well the tool works with A14 Nov2024 build and is confirmed by a couple users on here. However, I see you already updated to A15 and the unlock tool is not going to work and throw errors. Some users were able to unlock on A14 Jan25 build, but others said they couldn't get it to work.

What determines the ability to unlock is the original firmware version. The security update can install with the core firmware remaining the same. On Android 14 core the security updates go Late 2024, Jan 2025 then finally March 2025 they should pause at that point until the phone updates to A15 then it will continue up until October 2025.

Once core firmware has been updated there are certain aspects of the phone that can not be downgraded due to anti-rollback features and why trying to flash an older firmware does not make a phone eligible to unlock.

When you update the core firmware it installs the latest security update up to the point of the core firmwares release.

From user reports it seem the core firmware version cutoff is November 2024 manufacturing date phones. Those can be unlocked if on the original late 2024 security update or if only the security was updated to Jan 2025. If you were sent a phone with Jan 2025 A14 core firmware and Jan 2025 security update it appears the software unlock does not work
