[Discussion] No stagefright fix for the Nexus 7...

[RusherDude]

Cannot find any news or rumors on a stagefright ota fix for the nakasi/nakasig. I'm surprised it appeared for all the other devices except this one...

I would understand if they don't update it to M (still not happy, my ipad 2 is still updating..), but not fixing this security problem on a device in the last android release seems odd.

Nope no update for you as the tablet is 3 weeks out of it's security patches window... And google doesn't care enough to fix one of THE biggest security thread in existence on a device 3 weeks out of the security patch period!

No need for a fix as Stagefright affects phones only.
No MMS no bug!

@cylgalad probably you should become more familiar with the bug before commenting ...

They should fix this for EVERY nexus device, regardless of it's age.

Si my device that is on 5.1.1 and they just need a VERY LITTLE EFFORT to patch must remain unpatched because it just passed out the 3 years window? An EPIC security bug unfixed for this reason?

You're very wrong. MMs is just one attack vector of a lot of options.

On every device, but specially on every Nexus, and specially one that is on 5.1.1 already...


Really Google?

Yes... that's basicly the reason why it's not getting the update, If you guys are running 5.1.1 anyway, I advise everyone using it to start using cm12.1(or a recent rom based on that) as it is already patched for most devices

Hi all, according to CM's blog @ 2015/08/13, new build which including stagefright fix will be released upon CM11 and above. Could anyone help to confirm if our Nexus 7 2012 will get this build or not? Especially for CM11!
