blueborne says hi.
samsung fixed blueborne on the august security patch before google for the s8 though.
a security patch from google is fixes that google believe need implenting.
the same security patch from samsung has the google fixes, plus the samsung ones
google aren't the messiah (look at the september patch they recalled or the pixel 2 xl being a hardware disaster)
it's only the google fangirls that can't seem to grasp reality
no they didnt, they are still vulnerable.
That's my S8 on the latest UK BTU firmware, August Patch.
Samsung may well have rolled the fixes in to an firmware update but that doesnt mean diddly squat if we dont have it yet, and i dont count fartarsing around with installing different firmwares for other countries as being 'fixed'.
I'm not sure why you would try to deflect the issue on to Google, it isn't google's fault that UK S8's are stuck on august security patchs and are still vulnerable to bluebourne; Google fixed it two months ago. If anything, that proves that moving to the security patch model works, because google can fix issues like that and roll it out very quickly without the need for full firmware updates, but it still shows that manufacturers are lagging behind because it's still up to the manufactures to implement the security patches, which is why i have Vernee Apollo sat in my draw still sitting on last July's security patch (which was before the phone was even released)
Depends on the device.Don't the monthly 'security updates' also include general OS bug patching? The October 2017 security update for Oreo fixes some of the bluetooth issues apparently..
That's impressive. My Honor 8 Pro is still on 5th July 2017. Their ongoing product support is awful, especially for the flagship phone of their brand.
Unfortunately now that Lenovo own them you can forget any sort of timely update, one of the reasons I gave up on my perfectly good moto x force and moved back to a Google phone.Just checked my Moto G4 and it's still on the March 2017 security patch and Android 7.0 - doesn't exactly fill me with confidence
