Android 4.4.4 LMY49G Omnirom for Galaxy i9100

Hello everybody,
I'm using a Galaxy SII i9100 with an omnirom mod and just learned that Google released an update for android 4.4.4 (which is the latest omnirom mod for my phone) called "LMY49G" to fix some security issues. Does anyone know if theres a plan to develop an appropriate update for the omnirom mod (and therewith also for my Galaxy S2)?
Thanks for every answer.
Google actually did a KitKat security update?
Interesting. We did do some KK security updates, will need to talk to the team about this one for devices that never saw L or later.
Right, relying on my information that update called "LMY49G" has been released for android 4.4.4, 5.0 and 5.1.1; for version 6.0 and 6.0.1 the release is called "2016-02-01", I think its the day of the release. As far as I know the update has only been released for google nexus devices and for blackberries with android. It should fix some critical security issues. Maybe that information is helpful?

That doesn't make sense on further thought...
Anything 4.4 would have a K prefix to the build. Something starting with L would be a 5.x build.
https://source.android.com/security/bulletin/2016-02-01.html says 4.4.4 for "updated versions" for some items, however - I can't find an appropriate release tag for these anywhere in AOSP.
Some of them appear to be some of the old Stagefright vulnerabilities which we already backported fixes for...
God the documentation for this update is confusing/poor...
Okay, today I got a notice, that there's been another update called "LMY49H". Again its been released for Nexus and Blackberry Android devices to fix some critical security issues. And also again its called LMY49H (obviosly just the last letter changed) for android 4.4.4, 5.0.2 (thats also different this time) and 5.1.1 but "2016-03-01" for versions 6.0 and 6.0.1. So I think this time its from the beginning of march. You're sure all of those problem have been fixed in the omnirom mod before?
Thanks for your help!

Post-November patch Xposed

A new test version of Xposed has been released that works with Marshmallow-based ROMs that have the November security patch. I'm still fairly new around the forums, don't know if the average Xposed user follows the Xposed threads, so I thought I'd post a link to the thread page, here, as I have it working on my XT1095 (XT1093?) running cm-13.0-20161122-NIGHTLY-victara.

Version 87 release is now available and works!

How can I update Android security level on a custom ROM?

Hi, I have a Nexus 6P with a "MegaPixel" rom running on v7.1.1 and the security patch is at Dec 5, 2016
I just got a notification of an update. I tapped install and it just restarted the phone to recovery (TWRP). I rebooted back to system and the notification disappeared.
I tried to check for update but it showed nothing, and the Security patch is still at Dec 5, 2016.
The kernel I am currently running is ElementalX kernel. And yes, it updated to support Feb 2017 security patch.
On another topic, my battery life is ****, and this is the main reason I changed ROM and kernel but it didn't help by much(I am talking about 2.5 screen on time with 50%-70% brightness)
Thanks from advanced
Hi... Just look in the thread of MegaPixel... But it seems like last update was released in December 2016. You can't get last security patch if the dev doesn't update his ROM. You'll have to wait for an update or switch to another one.
As for battery life. It really depends on how you use use your phone. There are a lot of threads which aim to help with battery. I invite you to start reading the forum a little bit, I'm sure you'll find some tweaks to improve it.

[Q] Latest MM Rom With Security Patches

Hi All. Right, basically I don't know if this is the right place to post this but I'm looking for an up-to-date Marshmallow ROM with maybe the latest security patches installed. I've tried building RR with success but no SIM detected and my limited knowledge of Linux and building I cannot fix the issue. I'm looking somewhere along the lines of Lineage OS 13 or RR and at a push, AOSP.
If anyone can help or point me in the right direction then that would be extremely helpful as there are some very talented people here!
Thanks for your help guys!!
The last version of RR for 6.0.1 from 12/16 is still available...
https://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/development/rom-resurrection-remix-t3408504
... which I believe has the latest MM security patch from 9/16 (MTC20L).
