Turn off auto MMS retrieval on Hangouts and the default messaging app. Do not open a MMS from anyone you do not know.
Samsung AT&T patched the s5 and s6
waiting on them to to do the s4 as well I thought I heard its a worse problem on the s4 in terms of privilege escalation
Lookout has a stage fright detector tool that seems to be pretty accurate the s5 it shows as being patched after the update after

you do thing those patched will applied on custom rom bcuz for me it seem like its only patched for stock roms right...
Well this is a problem. My S2 and S4 are both running jelly bean. My S3 here is running kit Kat. Hopefully the people over at CM Security will release some sort of protection. If I OTA my S4 I will lose the ability to use loki doki. If I OTA my S3, I will lose root and can't re-root without tripping KNOX warranty bit and my S3 is still under warranty (I think?).
my phone just got an update today. Does anyone know what it might be? its still 5.0.1

It is OC4 which is the stage fright fix
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using XDA Free mobile app
Got the update alert yesterday morning but selected remind me later. Was debating whether to take it as I still want to root this S4. Don't know if they tweaked the B/L even more to prevent downgrading, rooting and then upgrading. But then I remembered the Stage fright bug and realized what the update was probably for.
Took the update and it is OC4 but still Android 5.0.1.

Hey guys,
I recently purchased my Droid ultra and I'm loving it. The only thing is that every time I hit software update it tells me that there's no software update available.
As you can see I'm probably on the version of the software that came out of the box.
I know that on Nexus phones you could force the update by going to setting and clearing cache of Google services framework. Is there a similar way to force an update on this device?
Stock / not rooted
Thanks for your help guys.
Ps. I'm on straight talk... Dunno if this makes a difference or not.

I recently bought a Galaxy Gear Live and was excited to use it with S health on my Galaxy S5. Turns out, though samsung claimed they would update their software to be compatible with their watch, it still isnt. Not a problem, though. I thought i would still use the google fit app, as its an android wear device. Turns out my phone isnt even compatible with the google app?? Im not sure what to do as both company apps are not supported. Any ideas?

Just because it says it's incompatible doesn't mean it won't still work on your device. You could download the apk and attempt to install, worse case scenario is it won't work

Tried that now, it seems to glitch my phone and freezes it. Also, i just found out other S5's ARE compatible.

That's very odd. Normally Sprint phones are pretty flexible with most apps. Is your S5 on kk or LP?

Just got a new update...don't know what is...since I'm on OG5...I'm taking it. Here goes...
So what is it?
New everything. OG7...new baseband kernel...I haven't seen any new things outright. Phone seems more responsive... Holds an LTE signal better in my area. Still looking.
3 options in Notifications On Lockscreen now...the new option to Hide Content is present
I can confirm an update is available on mine too. I'm currently on OG5 and downloading a new OTA now. I'm in Oregon.
Memory leak issue fixed?
What about the new icons like the international version? Oh and live broadcast mode in camera?

Have you disabled any apps particularly system apps? Maybe something was inadvertently disabled and is keeping the update from being able to install. Do you receive any error message or codes?

posting that this update allowed for new locked LTE bands to become unlocked. Is this possible? I need to know because updating the phone is going to be a big hassle since mine is rooted and cannot update without first restoring it..
Please let me know if this is possible and if you find any links confirming it.

Updated last night. Today, using iheartradio, rebooted 3 times today. App worked great on 6.01 on Nexus 6. Cleared cache, reinstalled app. No good. Trying other radio apps. If it is just iheart, I don't care.
Overall, smooth. But one MM feature missing are the feature updates that 6.01 brought to my Nexus. On the Nexus Do Not Disturb became event controlled, but it is missing from my Note.
Installed the update last night with no problems. One thing missing is the ability to pin a contact to the homescreen which I use a lot. Found an app called SpeedDial that does the same thing.

What settings are you using to get LTE? I'm using Cricket and I've been trying to figure out how to get LTE working since I unlocked the phone a few days ago.
Anyone catch this yet?

Well if you are worried that your phone will update automatically, it won't because your /system partition has been modified (you have root access). Either way, you will be notified about the update and you can simply ignore it.

Did you have any issues using LG Bridge? I getting an error on my device right at 49% that says "Image Verifying Failed", two times in red. After that message I get a message in Bridge that I need to retry the update (retrying gets the same error).

I also used LG Bridge. Fingerprint scanner works great now with my Otterbox case. I had no problems updating through Bridge, took maybe 20 minutes.
Sent from my LG V10
I took the update thru the LG Bridge. It came thru flawlessly. Things I've noticed...
- Fingerprint scanner seems to be very sensitive now. Registering a new fingerprint was effortless, unlike the first times I did it. MUCH improved.
- 2nd screen functionality for notifications seem better. My messages wouldn't scroll when they got displayed, now they do.
- MUCH better battery life.
- Sharing options are improved BIG TIME. It gives frequently used phone numbers now.
- The dialer has a native video call option now and it's awesome. I called my girlfriend on her Galaxy S6 Edge and she got the option to answer or answer in a video call. Very nice.
- Maybe placebo, but the camera seems a bit snappier.
Anyway, those are my thoughts on the update. Very nice and welcomed update. Also, this is the only phone I've never had to root just to get some extra functionality.

Did anybody else notice a difference in front and rear camera quality while taking a picture and the marshmallow update?
I'm excited about the update I'm one of the few who have problems with the fingerprint scanner when I put a case on my phone but without a case this is got to be one of the fastest unlocking phones with fingerprint I've ever owned and I've owned quite a few phones... I'm going to update to marshmallow tonight
