STATEMENT PURSUANT TO RULE 13d-1
OF THE
GENERAL RULES AND REGULATIONS
UNDER THE
SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934, AS AMENDED

Item 1.    Security and Issuer.

        Item 1 is amended and restated to read as follows:

        This Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D (this "Statement") relates to the Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Shares"), of Next Level Communications, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company") and amends and supplements all information contained in the initial statement on Schedule 13D (the "Initial Statement") filed on January 14, 2000, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed on June 15, 2001 by Motorola, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Motorola").

        The Initial Statement amended and supplemented all information contained in an initial statement on Schedule 13D ("GI Schedule 13D") filed on November 22, 1999 by General Instrument Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("General Instrument"), the Voting Trust and the Trustee (each as defined and identified in the GI Schedule 13D) in which Shares were previously reported as beneficially owned by General Instrument. On January 5, 2000, pursuant to an agreement and plan of merger (the "Agreement and Plan of Merger"), dated September 14, 1999, General Instrument merged with and into Lucerne Acquisition Corp. ("Lucerne"), a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Motorola (the "Merger"). As a result of the Merger the separate corporate existence of Lucerne ceased, General Instrument continued as the surviving corporation as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Motorola, the Voting Trust was terminated and Motorola became the sole beneficial owner of the Shares of the Company held by General Instrument, with the sole voting and investment power with respect to such Shares. Consequently, since the date of the Merger Motorola has assumed the reporting obligations with respect to such Shares. Unless otherwise indicated, capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the same meanings assigned to such terms in the GI Schedule 13D and are incorporated herein by reference.

        The Company's principal executive offices are at 6085 State Farm Drive, Rohnert Park, California 94928.


Item 2.    Identity and Background.

        Item 2 is amended and restated to read as follows:

        (a)—(c), (f)    This Statement is being filed by Motorola. Motorola's principal executive offices are located at 1303 East Algonquin Road, Schaumburg, Illinois 60196. Motorola is a global leader in providing integrated communications solutions and embedded electronic solutions. These include: (i) software-enhanced wireless telephone, two-way radio, messaging products and systems, as well as networking and Internet-access products, for consumers, network operators, and commercial, government and industrial customers; (ii) end-to-end systems for the delivery of interactive digital video, voice and high-speed data solutions for broadband operations; (iii) embedded semiconductor solutions for customers in the networking and computing, transportation wireless communications and digital consumer/home networking markets; and (iv) embedded electronic systems for automotive, industrial, transportation, navigation, communications and energy systems markets.

        The names, business addresses and present principal occupations or employment of the directors and executive officers of Motorola are set forth in the attached Appendix 1, which is incorporated herein by reference. To the best of Motorola's knowledge, except as noted on Appendix 1, all directors and executive officers of Motorola are citizens of the United States.

3



        (d)—(e)    Neither Motorola, nor to the best of Motorola's knowledge, any of the directors or executive officers listed on Appendix 1 has been, during the last five years, (a) convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or (b) a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.


Item 3.    Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

        Item 3 is amended and restated to read as follows:

        In connection with the Merger described above, each outstanding share of General Instrument common stock was exchanged for 0.575 shares of Motorola common stock, with cash in lieu of any fractional Motorola shares that former General Instrument stockholders would have otherwise received. As a result of the Merger, Motorola became the sole beneficial owner of the 64,103,724 Shares of the Company held by General Instrument, with the sole voting and investment power with respect to such Shares.

        On May 16, 2001, Motorola and the Company entered into a $60 million credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement"). Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Company granted Motorola warrants for up to 7,500,000 Shares (the "May Warrants"), all with an exercise price of $7.39 per share. The May Warrants expire on May 15, 2006 and are exercisable in varying increments described below in Item 4.

        On October 24, 2001, Motorola and the Company entered into: i) a Guarantee pursuant to which Motorola will guarantee the Company's $20 million mortgage loan obligation to a third party; and ii) an Environmental Indemnity Agreement in favor of the third party relating to real estate security. In exchange for Motorola entering into such agreements, the Company granted Motorola warrants for an additional 400,000 Shares ("Warrant No. 10"), all with an exercise price of $3.82 per share. Warrant No. 10 is currently exercisable and expires on October 23, 2006.

        On December 11, 2001, pursuant to an Amendment to the Credit Agreement ("December 11, 2001 Amendment") by Motorola and the Company, Motorola agreed to provide an additional $20 million of loans ("$20 million tranche") to the Company. Under the terms of the December 11, 2001 Amendment, the Company granted to Motorola a convertible promissory note ("Convertible Promissory Note") that is convertible, at the option of Motorola, into Shares or other securities of the Company upon the same terms as will be offered to other investors in the Company's next future equity financing in excess of $15 million. If no such Company financing occurs and either (i) the Company delivers a notice of prepayment of this $20 million tranche or (ii) this $20 million tranche will mature within thirty days, then Motorola, at its option, can convert the outstanding principal and interest under the Convertible Promissory Note into Shares at a rate of $4.29 per share, subject to customary anti-dilution protection provisions. This $20 million tranche may not be prepaid while there are outstanding any other loans under the Credit Agreement, as amended. The conversion option under the Convertible Promissory Note is currently not exercisable. As additional consideration for entering into the December 11, 2001 Amendment, the Company granted Motorola an additional warrant to acquire 2,500,000 Shares ("Warrant No. 11"), all with an exercise price of $4.29 per share. Warrant No. 11 is currently exercisable and expires on December 10, 2006.

        On February 21, 2002, Motorola and the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement whereby Motorola purchased 6,912,442 shares of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company ("Series A Preferred") at a per share purchase price of $4.34, for a total purchase price of approximately $30 million. Each share of Series A Preferred is convertible into two shares of the Company's common stock; is entitled to cumulative dividends at an annual rate of 7.5%, payable in cash or additional shares of Series A Preferred; and is entitled to a liquidation preference of $10.85 in

4



the event of insolvency or dissolution of the company, in the event of certain change in control, merger or consolidation events and in the event of sales or transfers of a material portion of Company's assets outside the ordinary course of business. In addition, a majority of the holders of the Series A Preferred may call for redemption on or after February 19, 2007 at a per share redemption price of $5.21. Further, each holder of Series A Preferred may vote its shares on an as-converted basis. Finally, certain material actions require the consent of a majority of the holders of the Series A Preferred. In addition, the Company granted Motorola a warrant for 3,456,221 Shares with an exercise price of $2.17 per share ("Warrant No. Series A 001") and a warrant for 3,456,221 Shares with an exercise price of $2.60 per share ("Warrant No. Series A 002"). The warrants are currently exercisable and expire on February 19, 2007.


Item 4.    Purpose of Transaction.

        Item 4 is amended and restated to read as follows:

        Beneficial ownership of the 64,103,724 Shares was acquired by Motorola as part of the Merger. Reference is made to Motorola's Registration Statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-88735) for more information regarding the Merger, including the background and reasons therefor. Prior to the Merger, beneficial ownership of the 64,103,724 Shares was with General Instrument. Reference is made to the GI Schedule 13D for more information regarding beneficial ownership of such Shares by General Instrument, the Voting Trust and the Trustee.

        Prior to the Merger, the 64,103,724 Shares were held in the Voting Trust, which was terminated upon the Merger. Following such termination, such Shares were registered to General Instrument. Pursuant to the Corporate and Intercompany Agreement described in Item 6 below, upon termination of the Voting Trust, the Company's board of directors took action to appoint four Motorola employees as Company directors. Currently, Eugene Delaney and Richard D. Severns, employees of Motorola, serve as Company directors. Jerry Roseland and Ferdinand C. Kuznik, retired employees of Motorola, also serve as Company directors.

        On May 16, 2001, Motorola and the Company entered into the Credit Agreement. Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Company granted Motorola the May Warrants. All the May Warrants have an exercise price of $7.39 per share and expire on May 15, 2006. The May Warrants are exercisable in varying increments as follows: a) on May 16, 2001, (the "Effective Date") of the Credit Agreement, warrants for 1,500,000 Shares became exercisable; b) on May 18, 2001, warrants for an additional 1,500,000 Shares became exercisable when the Company's cumulative borrowing under the Credit Agreement exceeded $30 million; c) on June 20, 2001, warrants for an additional 750,000 Shares become exercisable when the Company's cumulative borrowing under the Agreement exceeded $40 million; d) on June 27, 2001, warrants for an additional 750,000 Shares become exercisable when the Company's cumulative borrowing under the Agreement exceeded $50 million; and e) warrants for an additional 3,000,000 Shares become exercisable in 1,000,000 increments on May 17, 2002, November 17, 2002 and February 17, 2003 respectively, unless prior to those dates the Company's borrowings under the Credit Agreement have been repaid in full and the Credit Agreement has been terminated.

        On October 24, 2001, Motorola and the Company entered into: i) a Guarantee pursuant to which Motorola will guarantee the Company's $20 million mortgage loan obligation to a third party; and ii) an Environmental Indemnity Agreement in favor of the third party relating to real estate security. In exchange for Motorola entering into such agreements, the Company granted Motorola Warrant No. 10 for an additional 400,000 Shares, with an exercise price of $3.82 per share. Warrant No. 10 is currently exercisable and expires on October 23, 2006.

        Pursuant to the December 11, 2001 Amendment to the Credit Agreement, Motorola agreed to provide an additional $20 million tranche to the Company. Under the terms of the December 11, 2001

5



Amendment, the Company granted to Motorola the Convertible Promissory Note that is convertible, at the option of Motorola, into Shares or other securities of the Company upon the same terms as will be offered to other investors in the Company's next future equity financing in excess of $15 million. If no such Company financing occurs and either (i) the Company delivers a notice of prepayment of this $20 million tranche or (ii) this $20 million tranche will mature within thirty days, then Motorola, at its option, can convert the outstanding principal and interest under the Convertible Promissory Note into Shares at a rate of $4.29 per share, subject to customary anti-dilution protection provisions. This $20 million tranche may not be prepaid while there are outstanding any other loans under the Credit Agreement, as amended. The conversion option under the Convertible Promissory Note is currently not exercisable. As additional consideration for entering into the December 11, 2001 Amendment, the Company granted Motorola Warrant No. 11 to acquire 2,500,000 Shares, with an exercise price of $4.29 per share. Warrant No. 11 is currently exercisable and expires on December 10, 2006.

        On February 21, 2002, Motorola and the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement whereby Motorola purchased 6,912,442 shares of the Series A Preferred at a per share purchase price of $4.34, for a total purchase price of approximately $30 million. Each share of Series A Preferred is convertible into two shares of the Company's common stock; is entitled to cumulative dividends at an annual rate of 7.5%, payable in cash or additional shares of Series A Preferred; and is entitled to a liquidation preference of $10.85 in the event of insolvency or dissolution of the company, in the event of certain change in control, merger or consolidation events and in the event of sales or transfers of a material portion of Company's assets outside the ordinary course of business. In addition, a majority of the holders of the Series A Preferred may call for redemption on or after February 19, 2007 at a per share redemption price of $5.21. Further, each holder of Series A Preferred may vote its shares on an as-converted basis. Finally, certain material actions require the consent of a majority of the holders of the Series A Preferred. In addition, the Company granted Motorola Warrant No. Series A 001 for 3,456,221 Shares with an exercise price of $2.17 per share and Warrant No. Series A 002 for 3,456,221 Shares with an exercise price of $2.60 per share. These warrants are currently exercisable and expire on February 19, 2007.

        Of the 17,312,442 warrants for Shares currently held by Motorola, 14,312,442 are currently exercisable and 3,000,000 are not currently exercisable within 60 days. Each of the 6,912,442 shares of Series A Preferred are currently convertible into two shares of the Company's common stock for a total of 13,824,884 Shares.

        As a result of the Merger, and the transactions described herein, Motorola is able to exercise a majority of the total voting power of the Company. Motorola has appointed four of the eight current directors. In addition, two of the current directors are employees of the Company. Except in connection with the agreements and arrangements described herein, Motorola has no current plans or proposals which relate to or would result in any of the events described in Items (a) through (j) of Item 4 to Schedule 13D. Motorola does, however, expect to evaluate on an ongoing basis its intentions with respect to the Company and may determine to pursue one or more of the actions specified in Items (a) through (j).

        Motorola currently intends to maintain beneficial ownership of all of its Shares. However, Motorola may acquire beneficial ownership of additional Shares or sell or otherwise dispose of beneficial ownership of any or all of the Shares it beneficially owns. Motorola reserves the right to change its plans and intentions at any time and to take any action, with respect to the Company or any of its debt or equity securities, in any manner permitted by law.

The following summary of certain provisions of these agreements is qualified in its entirety by reference to these agreements themselves, which are filed as exhibits hereto and hereby incorporated by reference.

        Corporate and Intercompany Agreement. General Instrument and the Company have entered into the Corporate and Intercompany Agreement, dated as of November 15, 1999, (the "Corporate and Intercompany Agreement") under which, among other things, the Company has granted General Instrument and its affiliates a continuing option to purchase additional Shares or shares of non-voting capital stock of the Company. If the Company issues any additional equity securities after its initial public offering, General Instrument and its affiliates may exercise this option to purchase: (i) Shares to the extent necessary for them to maintain their then-existing percentage of the total voting power; and (ii) shares of non-voting capital to the extent necessary to own 80% of any class of non-voting capital stock which may be outstanding. The purchase price of the Shares will be the market price of the common stock. The purchase price of non-voting capital stock will be the price at which third parties may purchase this stock. The stock option expires if General Instrument and its affiliates beneficially own less than 30% of the outstanding Shares.

        The Corporate and Intercompany Agreement also provides that, immediately upon the termination of the Voting Trust, the Company and its board of directors will take all actions necessary to appoint on the date of termination any number of additional directors nominated by General Instrument. As

indicated in Item 4 above, upon the Merger, the Company's board appointed four individuals as Company directors at Motorola's request.

        Registration Rights Agreement dated November 15, 1999. General Instrument, Spencer Trask Investors LLC ("Spencer Trask") and the Company entered into a registration rights agreement, dated as of November 15, 1999 (the "1999 Registration Rights Agreement"). Under the 1999 Registration Rights Agreement, the Company granted to these stockholders and their affiliates the right to request that the Company use its best efforts to register their Shares under federal and state securities laws so that they may sell or dispose of their Shares in accordance with these laws. So long as General Instrument and its affiliates own 30% of the Company's outstanding common stock, they will not be limited in the number of times they may make that request. After their ownership declines below that level, they will be able to cause the Company to effect up to four demand registration of their Shares. Under customary "piggy-back" registration rights, General Instrument and its affiliates will also be entitled to include their 64,103,724 Shares in all registrations of common stock that the Company makes, either for a sale by the Company or any of its stockholders, subject to customary exceptions. The Company will pay for all out-of-pocket expenses relating to these registrations and indemnify General Instrument and its affiliates against liabilities under securities laws. General Instrument and its affiliates may generally assign these registration rights to transferees of their 64,103,724 Shares.

If no such Company financing occurs and either (i) the Company delivers a notice of prepayment of this $20 million tranche or (ii) this $20 million tranche will mature within thirty days, then Motorola, at its option, can convert the outstanding principal and interest under the Convertible Promissory Note into Shares at a rate of $4.29 per share, subject to customary anti-dilution protection provisions.
