Stagefright Still An Issue After Patch? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4

Am I reading this correctly, in that we could still be vulnerable even after the patch?

P600 WiFi Only Update Notification

Currently rooted, running stock 4.4.2. Got a notification of an update....not sure what it would is - 4.4.4 maybe? Not sure if I should update (don't want to lose root). Anyone know what the update is and if updating with cost me root?
Thanks
Same situation
I too would like to know this. Thanks in advance!
You probably already know this, but it's just a ChromeCast fix (and maybe some other minor stuff) for 4.4.2. Some people have reported horrible battery life after taking/flashing this update, so since I don't use ChromeCast (and I'm rooted), I haven't flashed it.

No. Didn't realize that, thanks for the info. I usually keep up with this stuff but there's been so little support for this particular tablet that I just haven't paid as much attention as I usually do.

Amen on that. Most of the forums for my devices seem to be a ghost town these days, but especially for this tablet.

Ouch. That hurts.
I got tired of the nagging. You definitely lose root

No. Just no more nagging notifications. Mine would only update with Kies too. Have no idea why I did it but at least my TiVo app streams video now (it was blocked by root before)

[Q] Progress of LG G4 unlocking & rooting

Does anyone know how far we are getting root & unlocked bootloader in all models of LG G4? I heard about a month ago, we are close as someone is/are working very hard for it.

All I can tell you is don't take the updates!
There's a link at the end of that post to a post from Autoprime that has a bit of information.
September I heard.

No. It won't reverse the firmaware version. It will only wipe all user data. The problem with updating is that it may or may not render the root exploit that devs are working on as incompatible or useless. Also new update might enhance the security in the firmaware with chances to make it even harder to root. The opposite could happen as well.

Do you have the Hong Kong version? I think you'll be fine. The US Carriers are the one making things harder by providing a Kdz firmware with a modified version # 01. So, users can't be 100% stock if they try to reverse. Your's can be reverted anytime. Your phones Kdz file ends "00" ours ends with "01" but wait and see if the root method works or not when released.

Woot! Have they mentioned anything about the firmware versions (other than what Autoprime posted) preventing root?
All i can see is that none of the big boys are been active in the forum so thats a plus and great news. Just because they are so busy working on solutions and i cant wait so i can actually bring few roms to this baby..

Yes. I am having the hongkong version. U relieved me. This waiting is killing me. I had never waited for this long since my Desire S. Without root & unlocked bootloader, it feels like I am not enjoying such a enjoyable phone.

New update G925TUVU3DOI

I have just recevied a new update its a 59mb only
its include samsung pay
Is that the only change? I got it to but already had Samsung pay so I'm not sure what else changed.
Only thing that changed is the build number from U2 TO U3
Sammobile had an article about u2 to u3 was going to be a major update. Lol its probably just Samsung pay as we can see here
Thats mean we will se android 6 very soon on Galaxy s6 edge
Samsung pay will not open. It just sits and says loading. Anybody else with the same issue or does it open for you?

Yes me too wont open :/
May be the beta has been closed?
It's going to be released to the public on Sept 28, maybe they are rolling it out a bit early to make sure we all have it. Then activate it when it's released.
Edited: tmobile on its website says the update is for "Various bug fixes and improvements".
Samsung pay had an update to include features like swipe up when the screen is off and others. This is Samsung actually sticking to the release date. The major update is 6.0 and should be release shortly after the announcement. Sammy and Android know they fall behind timely updates so its only going to improve in speed.

No beta is still open it works fine for me. If anything if feels a bit snappier when loading it.
I didn't want to create a new thread for this but was wondering if anyone ever got the advanced messaging to work from the last update?

My parents have S5's and I can see when they're typing. Pictures also get sent individually even if you group them.

That's odd. Do we need to factory reset? We're both in volte markets. I'm not sure what the issue is.
Here's a screenshot after updating.

Well I'm not sure what's up. It's not a must have feature but it would be nice not get left out lol. We both have the same phone and same build number and baseband. The settings are there in the messaging app. The only thing i can think of is maybe one of us isn't on volte. She's in FL and I'm in Vegas
is it still rooted after update ?

didn't get marshmallow

Not that I want marshmallow from looking at all the complaints, but I'm still on lollipop. Is the update still on a beta skew? Or is something wrong with my watch?

Same reason as why mine has not been updated yet. Our watches were not yet in the "update list".
The update were once pushed to Moto360 before 12 Feb, believed to be when Motorola noticed that lots of reports saying that devices were bricked after the update.
