VM have confirmed that the v2.01.03 SH2 firmware is being withdrawn on the grounds that field trials (i.e. the area roll-outs for the WiFi trials) have not passed the standard necessary for general release.

You may recall that this was a "base code" rewrite. VM said at the time that this was to handle the additional public WiFi service flow.

The unintended consequence was the modem mode problem as discussed on these forums. It is not known if there was any other concrete problem and Windows 10 has clouded forming a view on this.
