Samsung’s Galaxy Note Edge on Verizon is set to receive its Stagefright patch via an update this week. Once updated, users will no longer need to worry about malicious MMS messages destroying your world.
If you own another device on Verizon, it’s likely a safe bet we will see Stagefright patches rolling out quite often this week, as Sprint and AT&T already began their mass updating push last week.
If you have yet to do so, go grab that update, Note Edge owners.
UPDATE: Verizon’s Galaxy Note 4 appears to be receiving the update too. (Cheers @arjukgandhi, @BucWild007, and @Nemo_Aeternamn!)
Update 2: Both the Note 4 and Galaxy S5 on Verizon got the update yesterday.
anyone know if it breaks FoxFi?
So does anyone know if this breaks FoxFi??? Thank you!
My verizon S5 is getting an update right now too.
Talked to instore rep who never heard of stagefright. Way to be on top of poop, vzw.
LOL… @ the idea that the in store Verizon Reps would know anything….
Downloading now. woot. that is all
I am actually BUMMED to read this news…because it’s a sure sign that 5.1.1 is still probably 2 months away for us suffering VZW users. Downloading the update on my Note 4 now.
I have read these security patches going out, no one with a Nexus or samsung device across the networks have received it yet, including my own.
Is this going through an app or an OS update?
Hope this will fix it so they can’t steal the charge out of my battery anymore.
Damn, 5.0.1. Ew.
Is this Ota only? I am outside us til Sunday note4 vzw
Part, where are you? Are you safe? Do we need to send EVAC?

Are their dev and marketing teams one in the same?
Where the F#$k is 5.1.1 Samsuck?
on the note 5… 🙂
And still a RAM hog also. 2GB usable of 4. That’s hilarious.
Save your hate until Thursday. We already know that you will be in full force that day with the battery comments.
Battery and RAM 🙂
Already saw a retail model and have everything I need to know to inform others to not jump on it.
Others as in this small community of fanboys or the people that never read your post?
Just a very small percentage will ever read our comments. I agree that sales won’t be chart busting but I don’t see any other Android OEM topping Samsung. The market is over saturated and the Chinese are releasing forgettable models. If LG couldn’t beat the S6 with their removable battery and SD Card slot no one can.
The Moto G could beat the Note 5 but I doubt that it is the phone of your dreams.
He’s iphone boy don’t stress yourself put 🙂
He’s iphone boy don’t stress yourself out 🙂
Your a idiot, free ram is wasted ram
He’s iphone boy excuse him
You’re an*. 2GB being used by the OS is wasted. It’s funny that my 3GB phone has 2.5 available for anything I want 🙂
