Google could have announced Android 6 Marshmallow, which will come soon, but the reality is that people with previous Android devices may have to settle for Android 5.1.1 for now .
Sellers as AT & T have begun to launch Android 5.1.1 for Samsung Galaxy S5 since October 22, which could soon be available via Firmware Over The Air (FOTA), a key update including respective security fixes to a growing concern about the exploits of Stagefright Stagefright 1.0 and 2.0.
As mentioned in a previous publication, this exploit allows hackers take control of your device. This is usually done via MMS or media files such as MP3 or MP4, which makes an important Android 5.1.1 patch.
As before, Android users can review your settings phone and check for updates to see if Android 5.1.1 is available. Just make sure you have a reliable WiFi connection and at least 50% of battery when you do.
Depending on how good your connection, it could take days to complete the download considering that its size is between 609 to 999 MB.
For those who are sufficiently skilled to do it manually, Samsung Kies be used as an alternative. Once complete, the update can be applied to connect the device to a PC and synchronize.
And while the GS5 receive their share of Android love, it seems that other Galaxy devices will have to wait a little more for Android 5.1.1.
not yet known if the Galaxy S4 will receive Android 5.1.1 or jump straight to Android 6. But for those who want to have Android 5.1.1 for security reasons, is a stock Android ROM version can be downloaded and installed manually.
This carries risks because it violates the guarantee of the device. In addition, this resource is best for those with technical skills.
A poor implementation of ROM can leave the phone so useless unless one is armed with experience, it is best to wait for the official update.
Concerns Stagefright are understandable and hopefully an official update for the GS4 come soon. Once you do, it is suggested that users install the update as soon as possible.
