@B33 - 2.3.4 is the correct Android version and the new System Version update brings it to 4.5.621  .. so indeed it looks like they're rolling it out.

Still got him Bear he's not doing to bad i got a case that i put him in it was a tight fit kind of made me Leary putting him in it but once in the Maxx looks good but it might be pain to get him out if i need to do any thing with the Sim Card but i got one of my smart features on it's the Wi-Fi one when i come home it Automatically kicks it to Wi-Fi then when we leave it does the same. It Takes great Pictures outside an inside is not to bad either an it does it in a Fast maner no hanging up. The speaker is the only thing that kind of makes me kringe a little With it's high Treble but i fixed this with the E.Q. App.

I have done some soft resets about 4 since i got it an once in a while when we go for ride me an the folk an it's bouncing from tower to tower it takes a few minutes to reconnect but it eventually it does i'm thinking it has to do with the Radio i got mine on C.D.M.A. / L.T.E. i have never switch it to C.D.M.A. Only. i have heard that it's not a good thing to do that.

I got it Monday morning; part of the Soak test group.

That's all I will say about it, or I'd have to kill you all!!

As you can see from the above "ad", it's nothing to write home about.  Fixed some glitches, cleaned up some stuff...nothing earthshattering, but no new headaches either.  Actually one of the smoother updates (I've been a part of each "soak test" since the rollout of Gingerbread back in May).  While I didn't say "COOL!!", I did at least say "cool".

I'll stick with what I got...but I do hope that it fixes the errors of the last update, and is a benefit to users as opposed to a headache...good luck

Got the update this morning, and my phone has been giving me nothing but constant problems. Resets every now and then, wireless going in and out, 3g not even working, the phone is jumpy and slow, and nothing works on it. When my phone resets, it hangs after the red Motorola sign pops up, and I have to do a battery pull. Not sure what this update actually did for the phone, but it seems like Gingerbread is nothing but a failure on Motorola...they should just update the X to ICS and be done with it...this would fix a lot of problems.

@Moomba - can you confirm what your Version # is ??  Settings / About Phone  -  is it 4.5.621  ?? or what?  Very strange because it doesn't look like a general release has even started, only the SOAK (test) group so far.

When you say you "tried a factory reset", what does that mean? You DID one or it failed?

Wait...what? I did a factory reset 2 days ago, before I installed this update.

Some of these problems have been happening since I updated to Gingerbread from Froyo, like the resetting, but it has gotten significantly worse. Nothing that I did could fix that.

Maybe it's my phone that's the problem?

How often does your phone "reset" (power off & on) on its own? If it's frequent, I would try running for some period of time in SAFE MODE -- just to rule out any rogue 3rd party APP causing your grief.  FYI, Mine is rock solid with this update, except for 1 annoyance that I reported to Moto.
