I downloaded the Stagefright detector app from Zimperium from Play Store and it says I'm vulnerable to Stagefright. What should i do now? Has Motorola rolled out the fix yet?

You can turn off auto retrieve messages in your text and Hangouts applications. Hangouts can be turned off, text message apps might depend on who developed it. That should help out quite a bit.

And, if the phone isn't too old, you should be getting a small update soon to take care of the problem.

Thanks i have already disabled auto retrieve and hangouts. My phone is Moto E which will be updated by Motorola soon. I will just download the small update but don't want to download the Lollipop update so when i check for update will Lollipop update also start downloading in the background? Its to avoid the forced Lollipop update that i have permanently disabled Motorola OTA updater.
