So my 450s should be pulling it? They definitely don't seem to be. I have deployed 6 handsets today and 12 total. My 450 bootrom is 4.1.2.0037, so it seems like I should have been ok with this requirement 'Split download file is recommended, but requires that all phones are running BootROM 4.0 or newer'. They are definitely pulling config file updates. My 550s are running bootrom 4.1.1.0232 if that matters. I see that there is a newer bootrom available for each. Should I upgrade that is well? I was a little hesitant to do that because I didn't have any issues that I knew of and I read that change was typically irreversible. Thanks again for all the help and advice!
