Sprint Moto Q Patch Now available

Get it here

Motorola - Support - Software Update

Requires Hard Reset and Windows XP (no Vista or Mac support)

What it dose

1) Adds number to letter bar in dial screen
2) Adds option to clear voice mail icon to phone settings
3) Changes the default DDTM setting from on to off (reported to not work for some including me)
4) Changes the default GPS settings from off to on
5) Adds the 2007 daylight saving patch
6) Fixes the stuck in "Dialing" when making calls
7) Fix the disconnecting from DUN/PAN session issue
8) Change the call info screen
9) Change the power off screen

That's all I know for now accept that the Q seams snappier and so far works better for me. Post any changes and questions here. The update its self takes a while but just fallow the instructions and don't panic when it seams to get stuck at 49%.

Question If I do the software upgrade (patch) will a hard reset...

mean the same as a master reset and will I lose
all of my stored data such as favorites, third

Essentially what I'm asking is will I be starting
from scratch if I do the patch?
Thanks !

Yes this is a Master reset but you are given the option to save your personal information.

I can't have the update working on my Q, once I connect my cellphone, it just says: "The Motorola server is being updated, please try again later". Is anyone else having the same problem? :S I'm kinda upset about the battery peformance, I don't really use my phone all day and I will waste all the power.

with out this patch, I would be truly unhappy with the life of the battery. Battery life was barely 10hrs, now I can go two days, what a difference.

I'm having a problem with the connection to my Q, I downloaded the software to my laptop, but when the USB is plugged in, it won't connect for some reason, I haven't had a problem with connection so far for anything else

Yes I'm running 4.2 ActiveSync and Windows XP...........

Also if I download this, will it make it more convient for me? Since I haven't had any problems for the most part so far.

One more thing, should I download the 4.5 ActiveSync?

Thanks for your help D5
