Stagefright updates for MetroPCS?

[AP2FTW]

I'm just wondering if anyone with a stock unrooted MetroPCS Stylo has gotten any new updates pushed to their phones? LG claims they are going to be coming out with monthly security updates as a result of this thing...just wondering if Metro will actually push the updates...

Since my phone is rooted I'm not sure if I'll get them so I thought I'd ask here

google has said that with 4.0 and higher, they have a technology called ASLR enabled, which protects users from the issue.

people get to paranoid. For something like this. You'd have to be specifically targeted.

I skimmed through it. But people have done the y2k thing about android for years.

OK, well it's there if you want it.

I'm not in to discussing assumptions so I'll just agree with you.
