When HTC unveiled the One A9 back in September, it vowed to roll out monthly security updates for the handset based on Android’s latest patches. According to HTC’s Vice President of Product Management, Mo Versi, AT&T is the first and currently the only carrier to start pushing out this month’s update.

With regards to what’s included in the upgrade, it looks like a number of critical issues have been addressed, such as the MMS failure bug, a fatal flaw that could potentially enable remote code execution through email and a fix for the longstanding error that caused some devices to randomly reboot.

As is the norm, this update is being distributed in stages. To see if it’s ready for your device head into Settings, scroll to the bottom and tap on “About Device”, hit “System Updates”, then select “Check for updates”. Alternatively, you can wait until you receive a push notification prompting you to install the update.
