Motorola Droid 3 XT862 3G Verizon / Pageplus, B Grade, Carrier Returns
These Motorola Droid 3 XT862 3G Verizon / Pageplus units are Carrier Returns graded B-stock, meaning fully tested and working with visible nicks or scratches on the housing or keyboard. B Grade is the practical choice for parts dealers who need working boards and keyboards, and for prop buyers where cosmetics matter less than a phone that powers on and shows a Droid home screen.
The Motorola Droid 3 XT862 is Verizon's 2011 slider: a five-row QWERTY keyboard under a 4.0-inch qHD display, a 1 GHz dual-core processor, 16 GB of built-in storage, an 8 megapixel camera with 1080p video, and Android 2.3 Gingerbread as shipped. It was also a global-ready handset, pairing Verizon CDMA/EV-DO with a GSM/UMTS radio for roaming abroad, but it has no LTE and no VoLTE.
TG Wireless moves the Droid 3 to exporters serving GSM markets, to collector and prop channels that want a working hardware-keyboard Android, and to repair shops buying donor units for keyboards, displays, and housings.

Condition: B Grade
B Grade (B-Stock) units are used, fully tested, and working, with visible nicks and/or scratches on the body or screen edges. They suit value retail and refurbishment channels where cosmetics are secondary to a tested, working unit.
Network and compatibility
The Droid 3 is a CDMA/EV-DO phone with a secondary GSM/UMTS radio and no LTE or VoLTE. Verizon shut down its CDMA network on December 31, 2022, and all US carriers retired 3G that year, so the XT862 cannot get voice or data service in the United States now. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. The realistic uses are export to markets with live GSM or UMTS service, Wi-Fi-only use, collectors, props, and parts.
Resale fit
- Export lots for GSM/UMTS markets where a global-ready Verizon slider can still register after unlocking.
- Collector and enthusiast resale of a late hardware-keyboard Android from the Droid line.
- Film and TV prop houses that need period-correct 2011 Verizon smartphones.
- Repair shops and parts dealers buying donor units for keyboards, displays, and housings.
