You need to bring that up with Samsung. Carriers don't touch code like people in the states think they do.

In fact, I posted about it on the Samsung members forum, but the moderator deleted it. Neither Samsung nor T-mobile can or will answer when this update will be available. I’m really astonished at the low priority this has been given. I hope you don't do your banking or use a password manager on your phone. 😏
You're astonished? Is this your first ever smart phone? This is by far not a uncommon thing to happen..with all carriers..with all manufacturers...
Yes, I'm astonished. This is not an ordinary security update! There are articles all over the internet about how serious this is. And, no, this is not my first smart phone. I have been with T-mobile since it was Powertel back in the day. Over 22 years. As I stated, I'm astonished at the priority this is NOT being given. I mean some of the S series are already getting the APRIL update, which is supposed to include stuff to make prettier pictures. Should that take priority over a very serious and simple exploit where a hacker can literally take over you phone? As of today, still no update.
and would you like to know who takes care of those security patches and then kicks them out?
