Default 4.2.2 firmware issue

Please Login to Remove!

I have not come across this anywhere else on the forum this morning...apologies if I've missed it:

Please be aware that there are issues with BlackBerry 4.2.2 handheld firmware and calendar/reminder synchronisation. Not all users are affected, and the following three issues have been identified:


§KB13420 Reminder notifications for calendar appointments may not display on the BlackBerry smartphone

oCause: The reminder manager is unable to find the appointment to remind the BlackBerry smartphone user.
oNote: This issue also affects BlackBerry smartphones that are using the BlackBerry® Enterprise Server and that contain a BlackBerry® Internet Service [CICAL] service book on the BlackBerry smartphone.
§KB13419 Unable to synchronize calendar with duplicate entries from BlackBerry Internet Service integration

oCause: The first BlackBerry Internet Service CICAL service book sent inherits the appointments from the base system calendar (calendar appointments which were created before any calendar service books were sent to the BlackBerry smartphone). The last BlackBerry Internet Service CICAL Service sent to the BlackBerry smartphone will be the default calendar.

o Notes:
  • This issue does not affect BlackBerry smartphone users that are associated with a BlackBerry Enterprise Server or only have one email account integrated into the BlackBerry Internet Service.
  • New appointments created after the last BlackBerry Internet Service CICAL service book is sent, will not be affected and work as expected.
  • Appointments created before the last BlackBerry Internet Service CICAL service book was sent will be affected.
§KB13330 Calendar entries created on the BlackBerry device will not synchronize to the email client when performing a wired synchronization

oCause: All Calendar entries are saved to the base system calendar of a BlackBerry smartphone that is not activated on a BlackBerry Enterprise Server. Entries in the base system calendar are only recognized by the Calendar application on the BlackBerry smartphone; therefore, any external application (Backup and Restore, Intellisync®, PocketMac for BlackBerry smartphones, etc.) will not recognize the Calendar entries.
oThe Number of Entries in the Calendar options shows the number of calendar entries in the service calendar (BlackBerry Enterprise Server).


The affected software versions are:

4.2.2 Bundle 148 - 4.2.2.66
4.2.2 Bundle 150 - 4.2.2.67
4.2.2 Bundle 164 - 4.2.2.75
4.2.2 Bundle 171 - 4.2.2.81
4.2.2 Bundle 176 - 4.2.2.85
4.2.2 Bundle 186 - 4.2.2.89
4.2.2 Bundle 188 - 4.2.2.90
4.2.2 Bundle 192 - 4.2.2.89
4.2.2 Bundle 207 - 4.2.2.103
4.2.2 Bundle 218 - 4.2.2.112

Resolution:
RIM are putting together a website outlining all of this and with details of a patch/workaround, which is looking to go live on the 29th June/3rd July.
