I'm pretty sick and tired of my Android OS and the Firefox OS has caught my attention. is there an easier way to install it on my phone instead of building it myself?

There unfortunately isn't a better way to do it at this moment. Was there something you were stuck with?

Hi kidchaor89,

There are some Android devices which other people have already built and installed Firefox OS for.

I believe the Galaxy S2 and Nexus 5 are two of the devices which may be a bit easier to port Firefox OS - however, there is always the risk of bricking your device and making it useless.

Please also be aware that not all features of Firefox OS may work correctly on a ported build. If you are curious to know more, you may find information on these sites:

Thanks,

- Ralph

Not really. I'm just really busy nowadays and I don't feel like building it up from scratch, that's all. Thanks anyways :)

Hey Ralph,

Thanks for the reply. Where can I find these OS already built? I'm pretty busy nowadays and I don't feel like building it from scratch, so having one already done would be very nice. As for the bricking part, I was under the impression that backing it up before making the flash can restore my phone at the backed up state if ever I bricked it? I may be wrong. Please explain if I am.

Thanks!
