I just installed Stagefright Detector, and my phone is partially vulnerable. It failed 3 out of the 9 tests.

I'm running a beta ROM on my phone, which is updated weekly. Hopefully it gets fixed with the stable release. It's dissaponting that this has not been fixed yet, considering that my phone gets regular updates.

 

Nice, Google releases out of band update:

Note that it was last updated November, which means the vulnerabilities detected are at least already 4 months old, so maybe you need to contact the ROM developers.

 

@BoerenkoolMetWorst I will wait for the stable release of the ROM (which hopefully is not too far away), and test it. If it's still vulnerable I will post on the phone manufacturer's forum.
