Tap the four corners of the display starting from top left to bottom left in a clockwise fashion to bypass the activation.

Edited: Inaccuracy.

No, I was dead serious as well. In order to set up certain features of the phone without having to enter and register with Google, the bypass feature was included in the OS.

I'm not sure how it works on the razr with the non removable back cover but I know on the nexus sometimes powering down and pulling out the sim card for a few minutes then putting it back in and rebooting will fix a no signal issue

So can you take out the sim card on the razr? If so that could fix it

And in my haste, I stated the bypass press in the wrong order (thanks thadroid). The right order is clockwise from top left to bottom left.

See video below.

+1 Definitely take it to Verizon and try a new simcard. When I first got my Razr I went through 3 of them before I could get data signal for initial setup.
