Everything I've read so far has indicated that it needs to be
integrated by the device manufacturer (on behalf of the carrier). My
understanding (although no one has definitively said this yet) is that
it needs to be done this way in order for the software to be properly
interfaced with the device.
I haven't seen it on my Droid Razr, but I haven't had the time to sit
down and run a debug session over USB yet. Short of that, the best bet
would be to use Trevor's logger test application:
