Stage Fright is a malicious bug which originates in the form of a video MMS, and then enables the hackers to get in to hack the user database completely. Till all the devices receive this upgrade, everyone is advised not to open any MMS video, as per NeuroGadget. 

It is basically a multimedia play back tool, but it is coded with a malware code. Some reported cases suggest that even if the user does not open the plagued video MMS, the built in Hangout app will automatically processes this malware file and makes this malicious video available in the gallery of the phone.

HTC One M9 runs on Android lollipop 5.0 out of the box. To check for the Android Lollipop 5.1.1 upgrade, the users can either wait for an automatic pop up in the notification area, or check for the upgrade manually. They can do so as following:

Go to the "Settings" Menu then choose "About" and then they need to Choose "Software Updates" and finally select "Check Now."

This is a huge update, which is why a minimum battery of 50 percent is advised along with a stable Wi-Fi connection to process the update.
