For those of you Droid 2 Global owners, you should start to be on the look out for a new software update in the near future. The upcoming build number will be 4.5.629 and should bring some welcomed improvements. Some of the listed fixes are:

Device Features

Device is enabled with the Wireless Alerting System.
A Google Security Patch has been added to improve security level.
Fixed issue where the device may power ON without user interaction.
Adjusted camera settings will be saved, even after the device is powered down.
Resolved possible device resets while playing music.
Reduced Out of Memory errors.

Email, Messaging & Data

improved ability to access and receive Gmail messages when the Mobile Hotspot is turned on.
Addressed error that replicated thumbnails in message threads.

Applications & Widgets

WAV files can be played from Visual Voice Mail.
Purchased ringtones are now able to be downloaded, saved and used where appropriate.

The update is going to be 19.4MB in size and should be rolling out soon, if not now. I just checked my girlfriends DROID 2 Global and nothing was available yet so you may have to wait a bit before you can update. Be a pal and let us know in the comments when you see something, will ya?

Stacy Bruce was born and raised in Spokane Washington. He attended the University of Washington to study pre-med only to change his course study a year later to forensic science. Although currently not a doctor or a scientist, some believe he posseses the knowledge of both. He was a resident of San Diego California for ten years, lived beachside and sometimes wonders why the hell he moved back to Spokane. A multi-talented man, Stacy is a fabricator, an artist, a gear head, a tech junkie and at most, the disciple of Casanova. Growing up, he was always enthralled with electronics, gadgets and gizmos. Throughout his life he has had one, if not two, of every cool and new electronic device available. He began his smartphone experience with the original iPhone. After realizing it was more like theirPhone, he decided he wanted the ability to customize, so Stacy moved to the OG Droid and has been a loyal Android fanatic ever since. Moving through all of the top tier Verizon phones, he recently retired his Droid Charge in favor of the Galaxy Nexus, only to wonder what great device Samsung will come out with next. Stacy is a busy new homeowner in where he lives with his beautiful girlfriend and two dogs.

Just got mine, haven’t noticed anything yet. Also, they haven’t fixed the obvious bugs since the GB update rolled out.
