Did anyone get their mobile wallet BTC stolen?
Yes. A total of 55 coins so far. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=271486.0

The relatively small amount is partly due to quick response of the community, and partly due to the fact that Android bug does not lead to every transaction being exploitable. Still, the bug has been public for many months now. Everyone - from obviously overpaid Google developers, to obviously underpaid Bitcoin developers, should be even more careful moving forward from here. This flaw was not catastrophic, but the next one may be. Tread carefully.
