YOUR DROID 2 GLOBAL BY MOTOROLA
JUST GOT EVEN BETTER.
Verizon Wireless is pleased to announce a new software update, Version.4.5.600.A956.Verizon.en.US,
for your Droid 2 Global by Motorola. This update provides several improvements for your device, as
well as upgrading to the Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) Operating System (OS).
Droid 2 Global by Motorola
SOFTWARE UPDATE
****Lastest update 10/12/11:
Everything must be squared away now, as the new build of 4.5.608 has been approved and should be made available shortly. Normally when these support documents arrive, the update shows up within a week or so.
Letter from Motorola:
10/12/11:
Hi.
"I want to thank you for providing feedback on the Droid 2 Global Gingerbread upgrade. The feedback from Motorola Feedback Network members helped us identify a serious issue and stop the general distribution of the software before a larger number of owners were impacted. I want to personally thank you for your contribution -- it is just this kind of thing that demonstrates the value of this group.
Now we've put in the needed changes to eliminate this single serious issue and we're ready to resume the rollout. Because you provided feedback before, we will include you in the initial push and ask again for your feedback.
We will not do a private community as we think we understand the strengths and gaps of this software based on our first soak. I will be sending a survey -- maybe two -- to make sure that you are able to update, and to see that the encryption issue that caused us to delay has truly been addressed.
Expect the push of a new load tomorrow. You should see no change in how the device operates overall -- unless you encountered the encryption issue. That should disappear.
I will send out a survey tomorrow -- in the event that you have any update problems, use that to let me know.
Again, many thanks for participating in the Motorola Feedback Network. You are really making a difference.
Regards,
- Matt
Motorola Feedback Network
Motorola Owners' Forum"

VERY interested in the improvements to system stability and GSM radio .. just last week I lent my (currently idle) D2G to a friend, and now the update that sounded forever away, suddenly appears.. by the time I get around to getting the handset back, this will probably be old news
If somebody could update this thread when it's actually released, I'd really appreciate it. Would love to make a backup of my current Fusion install, SBF, and then give it a shot.
Ok here the news straight from Verizon Tech suport the update is scheduled to roll 615am cen time ...
Off network install
Will there be a way to install this update if I am not connected to the VZW network? I am currently living in Saudi Arabia (i am from Kansas(insert joke here)) and I am using the STC network with their sim card. I can not get connected wifi due to the proxy problem either.
I am able to install .apk files with android manager, but I first need the downloadable file.
Thanks,
george
i dont think so, but no worries, im sure by the time youll get a chance to install, there will be a downloadable file, if your phone has 5g you can probably download it directly to your phone.
You don't need to be on the Verizon Wireless network for the update to be able to be installed.
Any data connection, be it GSM/UMTS 2G/2.5G/3G, or WiFi, will suffice. The update process is performed over the TCP/IP stack. In case you want to get it over cellular data, you need to remember that the update is about 105MB in size.
About proxies: there are a few applications available on the market that allow you to set Android's proxy configuration, though I am not sure if these settings affect anything besides the web browser.

Same here. Nothing yet. Created a shortcut on my home screen to the System Update so as soon as I tap it it will check for updates.

I'm in the Florida Keys at the moment. Nothing available here yet. I think I'll go for a swim before checking again
The update was released @ 06:15 CET and is going out in groups; grouping is probably done by device MEIDs.
You can go to a Verizon store and ask them to push the update to your handset, though.
Doses man the wait it killin me I was light hell yea when tech support said 615 lol he didnt mention nothing about being in line for it lol
no update in seattle
I'm in the seattle area and no update for me.. been trying all morning

Hmm going to have to SBF my phone when i get home.
I am in Australia and have just recently bought an HTC M8 on eBay which was originally listed as new, and factory unlocked for $530. A few days later I found out it was actually rooted now unlocked, but was originally locked to Sprint. This was confirmed by a Sprint Connections application update etc, and the root was confirmed by the SuperSU app that was already installed in the phone. I'm recently confirmed this by the Root Checker app.
My phone's software is Android version 4.4.2, HTC Sense 6, software number 1.54.651.8, HTC SDK api LEVEL 6.17, PRI version 1.52_003, Kernel version [email protected] #1 SMP PREEMPT, Baseband version 1.05.20.0321_2.
The phone is pretty functional for everyday use except for the following issues:
- The internet network settings had to be manually obtained from my carrier as the phone did not automatically pick it up.
- The internet seems slower than usual (Signal strength -79 dBm 17-20 asu) compared to my old phone (Xperia Z1), despite the settings being specifically on 3G/UTMS mode which is faster than having it on Global Mode, and the required setting with my carrier Optus.
- I cannot access anything under System Updates. i.e. Update profile, Update PRL, UCICC Unlock and most importantly, HTC software update. This update takes >20minutes to search to no avail. This error message at times pops up when I try selecting Update profile: “vDM Client has stopped unexpectedly. An error report will be sent to HTC to help us improve our products”. This error screen would pop up intermittently when my internet didn't work but, I rarely see it now.
- Wifi would randomly switch on. I've turned off all system selections that may be caused on this. I haven’t tried booting my phone into safe mode to determine if an app is causing this.
I don't know much about phones (I had no idea what rooting was until I looked it up to get a rough idea), so I'm wondering if you experts could be some advice
I'm planning on keeping the phone for about 2 years and wondering what issues I may receive from having a rooted phone with the already above issues? Would the phone play up more? Can I use my current android version for that period relatively smoothly?
I am able to return my phone for a full refund but I don't have a spare phone and don't want to go in to the hassle of doing so if I can keep the phone (I would prefer to leave them negative feedback on eBay to be honest ). What do you guys think?
Thanks in advance for any asisstance.

Just reflash the stock rom and relock the bootloader and everything should be fine.
I just bought my first ever Android phone, Acer Liquid Zest Plus.
It's not quite working in the limited ways I was hoping it to work.
First, I drive a Honda, which has handsfreelink system for connecting the phone to the car. The phone connects to handsfreelink ok, but then shows some weird behavior, in that when using the car's controls to place a call through handsfreelink, handsfreelink immediately apparently hangs up the call (i.e. the car's display shows that it hung up the call). However, this does not actually hang up the call on the phone itself, as the call gets placed nonetheless and when someone picks up on the other side, I can have a conversation through the car's audio system. Seems to almost work, but the weird behavior just described means that I can't hang up a call without pulling the phone out of my pocket and hanging it up from the phone (as opposed to hanging up using the car's controls) while driving, which takes a lot away from the point of it all.
What could be the issue with this? Note that I had a Blackberry Passport before, which used to work all as intended with handsfreelink, and my family member's iPhone 7 Plus also works as intended with handsfreelink. Is it that my Acer Liquid Zest Plus does not have the necessary bluetooth profile/stack to works with Honda's handsfreelink? Is it that handsfreelink proprietary to Honda and uses something unique, as opposed to being a generic bluetooth device of the kind? Is a bluetooth device link this, used by other auto manufacturers, feature the same generic bluetooth thing, or is this something only Holda can possibly answer for me?
Could updating the phone solve this issue? If so, how? I go into Settings -> About phone -> System updates and it tells me that my device is up to date (I did not update it since pulling it out of the box). I notice that it's on Android 6.0 , and a quick Google search showed some discussions that it is highly unlikely that the phone will get newer Android update. The "Android security patch level" shown in "About phone" says December 5, 2016. That's a long time without a security patch. Should I, and is it possible to, update the phone?
I've heard of rooting an Android device and installing custom Roms before. Where can I find a guide for my device and the custom Rom files? I am hoping this might solve my issue with handsfreelink.
I know I am all around the place with my questions, but essentially, the issue I am having is that bluetooth connection to my car's audio system does not work as expected, and I am wondering how I might fix it. I am wondering if an OS update (either official version by manufacturer or a widely-used custom Rom) might solve this issue, or simply adding an extra bluetooth profile to the phone.
A solution would be awesome, but I'd be asking too much if I was hoping for that. Instead, if anyone can just provide me some pointers in terms of how to do research on what I should be doing to solve this, or clarify some concepts (to the extent you can tell I got it wrong from reading this post) for me, it would be really appreciated.
I've already been to Honda's handsfreelink website and Acer's support page for this product and there's nothing helpful there.
Thank you very much.

This phone is sold was the LG Zone 4 at local shops. It's a prepaid of course.
Here is box cover:
Copy paste to browser, pic I took.
warped.bluecherry.net/~shang/LM-X210VPP.jpg
Checking the stats and enabling the developer menu I found it odd that while it does have USB Debugging mode checkbox, there is absolutely no option for OEM enabled, nothing in the entire developer's menu has the term OEM.
Checking the hardware information the stats are as follows:
Model Number: LM-X210VPP
Hardware Version: Rev. 1.0
Android Version: 7.1.2
Android security patch level: May 1, 2018
Kernel Version: 3.18.31-perf-ga50810t [email protected]
Build Number: N2G47H
Software Version: X210VPP10c
PRL Version: 15371
The developer menu I enabled, I've done nothing else beside ads a blank SD Card for storage, it has usb debugging available but no mention again of OEM anything.
I'd really like to root this device as it's actually a fairly nice device. I have absolutely no plans to use it as a phone, just a wifi device, with of course Google hangouts and Google dialer installed since I have a 2 block wifi mesh network that I "could" use for phone calls. But that is beside the point.
Is this device capable of being rooted, perhaps if so if someone could say how easy or meticulously tough it may be. And I would most humbly appreciate any info and/or links to help me.
To be honest I'm not interested in installing a custom firmware, or a backup solution. I am just wanting to root it so I could install supersu if at all possible.
I would appreciate any help anyone can offer, if impossible I understand and will wait in hopes something comes along.
All I can find are for overseas versions with the OEM toggle in the deve, opera menu which mine doesn't have. Although it does have the ability to toggle option to install non play store apk's and the ability to enable USB debugging and change USB from charging to mtp, to midi to Ethernet tether, to audio source and PTP.
Anyone familiar with these devices and could possibly help me out or am I screwed for now?
I appreciate your time and thanks for any information you can give.
I need to find root as well

Phone Motorola One Vision (unlocked but NOT rooted)
Recently got updated (in UK) to Android 11 ~ 24th August 2021
Received a Security Update (dated 1 August) on 1st September 2021
Problem: Bluetooth will not stay connected - phone 'sees' whatever I try to connect to, it might 'connect' but then disconnects - depending on device it may take a few attempts before giving up
Firstly before anyone says 'search for it' - I have.
I've seen many posts about Android 11 & it's 'broken' bluetooth & the many so-called temporary fixes - but nothing works for me
(Clear Cache/Data, Reset Networks, Delete/Upair & reconnect etc) - Only thing I've not done is a full Phone factory reset
When the phone got updated to Android 11 everything went smoothly, except I had to go through all my Apps & (re)give the necessary permission to SD card etc. This also meant my Car Infosystem (SYNC 3 on a 2018 Ford C-max) didn't recognise my phone - so I deleted it & reconnected it & afaik for the week I was on Android 11 the phone stayed connected without any problems.
My Bluetooth Earbuds (cheap pair off of Amazon) still worked without any sound drop-off & My Amazefit Bip watch also stayed connected (apart from the occasional 'hiccup' when the App I use gets an update)
I then received a 'Security Update' a week later & now I've noticed Bluetooth is NFG (No F-ing Good).
When I try to pair up, the device(s) are seen (whether the car, earbuds or another phone) - I get the usual 'Check Pin matches the same as...' messages & I confirm.... then the phone disconnects/reconnects/disconnects until it finally gives up
In the case of the Car connection I get additional messages such as 'Allow Access to messages - An Untrusted Bluetooth device Ford C-Max, wants to access your messages' & I also get 'Bluetooth has stopped' pop-ups
In the case of Pairing up Phones - it just connects & disconnects, sometime when trying to reconnect - it doesn't even try to connect
The ONLY things that seems to stay connected is my Amazefit Bip watch - & ironically this is the only thing that DOESN'T show up as a 'Previously connected device' under Bluetooth
To try & figure this out I've tried all the usual tricks mentioned on Google Searches (as mentioned above), as well as trying different AVRCP & MAP options under the Phones 'Developer options' (even the 'Enable Gabeldorsche' option that apprently is suppose to stabilise connections)
- Nothing I've tried lets me stay connected more than a few seconds.
As I mentioned earlier I googled a lot & I see that Android 11 has had Bluetooth connection problems for a long time (posts I've seen go back to Feb 2012) & it's not just on one particular phone manufacturer - all the solutions given are basically all the same thing repeated, which I've tried (apart from the full manufacturer reset)
But as mentioned - these are 'old posts' (a few months old) & my questions are.....
Is there a permanent 'fix' for Android 11 Bluetooth connection problem ?
Do I/Will I have to wait until a proper fix is sent ? (afaik all this has happened due to the last 'Security Update' I received)
Is there a way to 'roll-back' to the previous Security Update (remember my Phone isn't rooted) - just to prove it's the update that caused the problem ?
or am I totally 'up-the-creek-without-a-paddle' do to a muck up by Google/Android developers ?

Im having exactly the same problem. Looks like it's the security update. May have to wait a month to get a fix I hope.
Sorry, I have the same problem with my One Vision XT1970-3 after upgrading on android 11
Did you give Magisk Bluetooth Library Patcher a try?
Same problem on UK Moto One Vision XT1970 following update to Android 11 and subsequent security update on same dates as above..
Ford Galaxy 2018 Sync 3 keeps disconnecting and reconnecting before giving up. Same Bluetooth "check pin..." message appears.
Everything worked flawlessly under Android 10. This is definitely an Android 11 issue.
It would be great to see some positive response from Google / Android / Motorola.

It would be great to see some positive response from Google / Android / Motorola.

Not a lot unfortunately.
I posted this problem on the Lenovo/Motorola Community Support forums (3rd October) & it seems not just you & I have had this problem (& not just on Ford Sync 3 either) - it does seem to point more towards the September Security Update though
Some posters have gone & brought new phones because of this problem, & (IMHO) a couple have even been a bit brash in their comments about how poor the support is. (What DID people do before phones could connect to cars by Bluetooth??? - I remember if someone called while I was driving, I just waited until I could pull over & phone back lol)
I admit I would've liked Motorola to release a sort of mid-month 'rollback' security update or something.. maybe even allowed people with problem to download & side install (somehow) the pre-1st August update just so that they could use their phones like they did before (I think you can with a rooted phone, but mine is unrooted).
let's hope they figure it out for the October Security Update

Thanks for the reply. Buying a new phone is a bit extreme. I've found that simply using a cable gives all the functionality needed with the added advantage of charging en route. Need to delete Bluetooth pairing for a quiet life.
I'll wait and watch for news of a workaround or solution.
Thanks again
