Do you have a Droid X yet? If so, you may be one of those complaining about wifi signal and syncing with Exchange servers. But, fear not, for Motorola has heard your pleas, and is pushing out a fix.

According to sources, Droid X’s will be receiving update 1.13.604 soon, and it will have a small arsenal of minor fixes in tow.

    Hmm…the camera issue is probably the only issue i can tell is needed. So.far my x seems to be functioning as i expected…though i was hoping for wireless n technology. Will the update make the wireless n effective or will we still be at g range?

    There is a problem with the gallery.
    if you take 100 pitchers you have to scroll 100 pitches to see the one you just took.
    I don’t know if this is a floor or it’s the way it’s supposed to be. but I know I like to see the picture I just took not 100 pitches before. I have to scroll 100 pitches every time I take one. everything else on this phone is 100% perfect. so please fix this!!

    I had ZERO issues with my X.

    I manually downloaded it this morning. The only issue i can see if fixed is that one click on the camera button brings up the camera more smoothly. Before, I had to click multiple times. I’m really liking the phone, but have found browsing to be somewhat slower than my previous Incredible. Anyone else? I also have found that some apps that worked on the Incredible go a little nuts on the X. But working through it. Otherwise, very pleased with the sound quality (couldn’t hear a thing on the Incredible and had constant dropped calls). And liking the large screen.
