It’s March and Google has announced the security patch update in the Android Security Bulletin for March 2021. This also details the functional updates for the Pixel devices (in the Pixel Update Bulletin) that are rolling out now for supported handsets. This comes in the wake of Samsung Galaxy phone updates (March 2021 patch) that has rolled out already. Apart from the normal bug fixes, the update brings resolution for the 43 issues in total for the Pixel 3 series, Pixel 4 series, and Pixel 5 phones.
The vulnerabilities fixed with the update include the ones that are rated moderate or high – affecting the framework, media framework, kernel components and the Qualcomm components. To the user’s relief, the update brings a fix for the Android Auto disconnecting bug and the unwanted missed calls being displayed on the Pixel 4a and the Pixel 5 devices.
