Firefox OS Support Forum

I have a ZTE Open for Telefonica Movistar Mexico.

On my ZTE Open, adb debug is _disabled_ I was trying to update it via "More Info" menu, but it never worked. So I tried to update it via SD Update using the ztems rom [0]

It just bricked my phone and now, every time I try to update it via SD card using any ZTE Open rom (I tried with several roms), including the Movistar Mexico's one [1] I'm getting errors like this:

E:failed to verify whole-file signature E:signature verification failed Installation aborted.

No matter if I delete the first three lines of /META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script, I'm getting the same kind of errors.

Please, any ideas about this?

My device is running version 1.3.0.0-prerelease that was compiled from source (by someone else). Now ZTE has finally released a version 1.1 'update' that I would like to install. However, when I attempt to install the update I receive a signature verification failure error message. How do I install the update provided by ZTE?

I have a ZTE phone running with FF OS 1.1. Since yesterday I don't know why the SD card is not recognized anymore on my computer. - USB storage is enabled on my phone - SD card is recognized on my phone - It doesn't work on other computers either - I tried to power off / restart the phone : no change - It was working before...

Any ideas? Thanks!

This is an ongoing problem with other users. When putting a PDF in address window of Firefox and clicking go to address FIREFOX WILL NOT LOAD AND DISPLAY THE PDF. This problem has come up in questions from other users on your site. NONE OF THE SUGGESTED SOLUTIONS WORK! (trying either the Firefox PDF viewer or the Acrobat viewer as default viewer)

I am using Firefox 23.0.1 (as some of the other users with the same problem). This was not a problem in the past with Firefox. Safari and Chrome continue load and display PDFs just fine from their addresses. This is a big problem as I now have to inform people who want to view my PDFs NOT TO USE FIREFOX BUT TO USE SAFARI OR CHROME.

Phone: ZTE Open C Firefox OS 1.3 Problem: When listening to videos on youtube I'm straining to hear the audio at full volume. I've tried different headphones. The volume is louder on mp3 files but not much. Is this a hardware or software problem? Can this be fixed?

ZTE Firefox open phone. notification "1 update available, System update REQUIRED, 13.34 MB" Phone is on wifi only. click download...it does download 13+MB, uncompresses, then says "System Update Ready" "Install update now?" to which I reply "install now" phone reboots immediately....there's a "differnent" animation displayed during the boot, which leads me to believe the update is being installed. It then reboots normally. Settings --> Device informatoin and perform a "check now" for updates. The same notification as above arrives, same update (13.34MB etc etc.)

This has been repeated several times in the past 24 hours.

In the UK, the network 'giffgaff' runs on the O2 network and automatically sets the voicemail number to the O2 voicemail number 901 instead of the giffgaff one of 443. This is a known problem of for Android 2.x. With Android you can change the voicemail number in the settings.

How can you do this with Firefox OS?

There is a toolbar feature in the lower right corner of the taskbar. I tried to set up the Links toolbar. I can drag addresses to this, but when I click them, nothing happens. What should happen is the site/page whose address I clicked should open.

How can I fix this? Is it a problem with the Firefox I'm currently using?

Got my new ZTE Open-C w/ Firefox OS 3.1 in March 2015 and all was ok; Very happy with it and glad I upgraded from my previous ZTE phone with 1.0 but now in the last month or so (we're in July 2015) the Usage application won't open. When touching it, the screen just goes black. I can close it ok, it doesn't cause any other issues. Short of re-setting the entire phone, how can I get my Usage app. back working?

Hello

I have recently installed Firefox Mozilla and two add-ons that I needed.

They appear in the add ons menu and are activated.

But I cannot see them anywhere in Firefox

All menus are activated including the add-on bar which appears at the bottom of my screen but is empty

Where might the icons be for my add ons please?

Thanks in advance

Version 22 has numerous defects. I wonder how this happened since it has ALWAYS been so dependable. Copy and paste functions won't work or are erratic. The web pages are over large and "blooming" sometimes appear "out of focus." These issues began immediately with downloading of version 22.

Will these issues be corrected?

This is true on both of my computers, one using Vista OS and the other Windows 7. If I switch to the IE OS (ugh!) these issues are NOT present.

I just received a ZTE Open device in the mail today, and after playing around with it a bit, I noticed that every time I tried to check for system updates, it would show me one 13.xx MB update, which I downloaded, apparently applied, and the phone seemed to restart itself, but then I would be shown the same (??) update available. The phone is without a SIM card, just playing with it connected via Wifi, with the 4GB microSD card installed. Then, this evening, I got an error message, which apparently was recorded on the SD card, a file called recovery.log (contents follow):

The SD card also contains a zip file in updates/fota/update.zip, which in turn contains patch/system/P752D04_DEV_US_20130726.zip, which contains: amss.mbn (about 20 meg) and boot.img (about 4 meg).

I had difficulties to make my ZTE open recognize the SIM card. Depending on my service provider said on there website:

  "an unlocked GSM 850/1900MHz, HSPA handset." 

and ZTE spec I found here:

  http://www.gsmarena.com/zte_open-5320.php

there should be no problem for ZTE open to recognize my SIM card, but it just does not work! I also try my friend's SIM card from another service provider, it does not work either.

Any idea?

Hi,

I can't get data or SMS working at all with settings provided by by carrier. They have suggested they don't support my Firefox Flame device. Is that possible? I thought connections were standard?

I'm in Australia and no carrier is selling Firefox OS devices here. Not sure what to do, the phone is almost useless if I only have WiFi.

Thanks

I have updated and it has verified when I retried to update but yet the plugin still tells me to update as there is a vulnerability.

Should I uninstall Firefox and reinstall?

So after 4 months (!), there is finally an update for the ZTE Open to 1.1 After bricking devices, withholding updates and a generally sucky experience, we now finally receive the update that will deliver us!

Right..?

...oh no, wait. Sorry, my bad. "There was an error when checking for updates" "Error while downloading the updates"

So after all this time, the best Mozilla and ZTE could manage was, apparently, to have the same @#$%ing problems in the new update that were there in the previous version.

Screw you guys, I'm going home (to Android*, which, y'know, actually works).

• Because the moderators asked us to compare to Android, if I remember correctly.

there is an error due to picture. i press reload a couple of time but not working anymore. the error is https://m.ak.fbcdn.net/sphotos-a.ak/hphotos-ak-prn1/t1/1908483_209927625874419_1956547350_n.jpg

Hi, not going to rant as I really like my ZTE Open, I've managed to update it to v1.1 via the ZTE update files, however, I now seem to have a real issue with my gmail, the emails download however, opening them can be very sporadic, sometimes they will open after about 10 minutes, sometimes not at all. I have tried all the previous suggestions, but they do not seem to resolve the issue, please could you help? The only other issue I have is that the latest update to marketplace fails, is there a work around for this?

Thanks.

I would like for Mozilla to develop a relatively high end smart phone i.e. on the level of a Samsung Galaxy S6 or iPhone 6, but also have an operating system and apps that do not track everything I do, everything I buy, where I shop, where I travel, who I send messages to, etc,etc. In other words a modern smartphone with an OS and apps that will not collect and/or sell my data for profit or just snoop on me. Can Mozilla do this, please?
