Is there any hope of getting firefox os for our blade. I saw konstas firefox os port to blade 3.

zte have a blade 2 type model coming out with firefox os on, the specs look pretty much the same as it, same cpu i think. Not sure if it would work with our phone.

That is what KonstaT wrote aboiut this in his ZTE Blade III thread:

I doubt it. It's never been ported to an ARMv6 device.

It's open source though, so there's nothing stopping if someone wants to invest time/energy/sanity in porting it. It should run fine on the original Blade as Firefox OS is targeted to entry level devices and it doesn't require high-end specs from the device.

is ut true that firefox os doesnt run armv6? As said its for low end devices, but most of low end devices have arm v6...

You can but it's very hard to make it working.

But what is the reason that firefox os does not support arm v6? Coz firefox os is for low end devices,,,

[Darktitor]

Because new devices are running arm v7 CPU and not the old arm v6 :-(

Firefox Os may be less attractive than Ubuntu Touch, but is nevertheless based on a much better idea. No doubt that in two years, when the appearance and some featureswill be developed, it will be great!

So I'll wait...

A Firefox os port is very possible. It just needs a lot of time and effort.

Tilal, can you port firefox to our blade?
Or can you maybe release coldfusionx3 for blade too?

Anything is possible if you and your team take a look into this... your work with coldfusion X is still adorable. Cheers!
