Time to patch MediaServer again.

Another 910MB android OTA update!

Does MediaServer have any of the original code left at this point?

    Well, they finally carved it up. Took long enough.

    Yep. 7.0 has the new mediaserver architecture.

    @crazyidiot Do you think it will make any difference? (serious q!)

    It should, security wise. The implementation in past versions of Android were terrible. Security was wide open. 7.0 carves up media server and puts much more granular permissions in place.

    No problem! I think they're still fine tuning it, actually. The Nexus 6P is having some serious battery drain problems. The 5X is oddly fine with the update to 7.0.
