Verizon Rolls Out Motorola DROID X2 Maintenance Update - MobilEgypt

Two months ago, Verizon Wireless published the official changelog of a software update for Motorola DROID X2, though it did not provide any details regarding availability. Although the DROID X2 was launched at Verizon exactly one year ago with Android 2.2 Froyo on board, Motorola and Google have already delivered an Android 2.3 Gingerbread upgrade. The latest software update is meant to add some new applications, as well as to improve the phone's overall security, performance and stability. Software update 1.3.418.MB870.Verizon.en.US for Motorola DROID X2 is pushed OTA (over the air) in waves, so users might have to wait a bit more until they will get notified on the new software. Although the official changelog is still listed as “Coming Soon,” the folks over at AndroidCentral claim that DROID X2 users have already started to receive the update, which is 35MB in size. According to Verizon, it will take about 10 to 20 minutes to download the software, but that mostly depends on network conditions. Installation should take up to 5 – 10 more minutes, so make sure the DROID X2 has enough battery. Motorola DROID X2 owners who have yet to be notified on the update can check for it manually by going to Settings / About phone / System updates / Download. One of the most important changes is the addition of a Google Security Patch, which is meant to improve the security level. Furthermore, the DROID X2 will be pre-loaded with Verizon Video and VZ Navigator 3D City applications. It is also worth mentioning that the smartphone will be enabled with the Wireless Alerting System. Several fixes have been included as well, such as shortcut names, which can now be updated and saved, as well as the purchased ringtones that are now able to be saved and set. Last but not least, the keyboard Input Auto Error Correction setting now defaults to off.
