4.5.607 OTA is temporarily pulled down by Moto.

[Byakushiki]

Just as a heads up, for those of you trying to use the OTA update to 4.5.607 but haven't received it yet...
Moto has pulled the 4.5.607 OTA due to there being a problem with Microsoft Exchange excryption and whatnot; as a result, we won't be able to update for a while.
I'll just quote Ace here...

Yep, Moto is retarded. They don't get that the exchange sync issue is with ALL 2.3.3 roms, but oh well. Good thing we have CM


And from Matt over at moto support forums...

We've looked into this Microsoft Exchange encryption issue with the recent software update, and we know what's going on. The update has been temporarily suspended to allow us to address this. We anticipate the update to be available soon when it is ready, and it will take care of this. Sorry for the hassle, and thanks for reporting this.

Well, that explains a lot.
Thanks!

im kinda a noob so how does this affect us in layman's terms

you can't update to gingerbread.
you're going to be on froyo.

So basically this means that they have taken the update down from the server until they fix it. When they're done they'll put it back up. A lot of people already have the update. I do myself. I don't use Microsoft exchange so its not a problem for me.

Well maybe they can finally fix the aweful reboot problem. it's worse than it was on Froyo. I'm rebooting like 4 times a day, just by unlocking the phone. Battery life is better though.

I like how Byakushiki completely ignored my earlier post about it.

Haha ya... duplicate posts are pretty pointless

Since they are going to fix the exchange issue, maybe they will fix the backlight and led issues as well.

It means if you haven't yet updated via OTA you won't be able to until Moto fixes the issue and releases it.

Not really. You can still get the OTA by flashing the .607 Leak but it will have the same issue with Exchange as the OTA (since they are actually the same package)

i hope so, the backlight issue seemed minor to me at first, but lately its been really bugging me.

im actually glad they did this, it means at least for the near future that moto is still going to support our phone.

I did a quick forum search for 4.5.607 OTA download and after about 1 second got this thread as a result:

http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-2-global/169668-4-5-607-ota-file.html

Isn't it extremely weird that just one single forum search request can get you something that you need without having to wait for a reply?

Speaking of which, Google Search for “4.5.607 OTA download” also gives that thread! Truly wondrous.

Even more wondrous is that people never read, or bother looking for something themselves. They always prefer to add more and more duplicate forum threads.

it is device encryption issue, if you don't enforce encryption via Activesync, exchange mail I'll work fine. I use it and it is working great (no encryption)
