what are you doing about disabling lg4 MMS to protect against the Stagefright problem? I use the native LG messaging. How would we then get MMS if we disable it? Thanks in advance.
 
LG have commited to monthly security updates so it will be patched soon enough.

If you are worried, switch to using Chomp or Textra till they do.

Have a read of this: http://androidforums.com/threads/stagefright-vulnerability-disable-mms-auto-download.932588/

It's worth noting that in 5-6 years of this "security hole" being available, no one has used it maliciously and they think the 300KB limit attached to MMS would negate it anyway.

I think it's a big fuss about not much tbh.
