Firefox OS Devices

• http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/os/devices/

I'm talking about the SAR https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_absorption_rate of the new Firefox OS device called Flame https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox_OS/Developer_phone_guide/Flame.

I don't think that there is this kind of specific information available... but maybe the manufacturer may know?

For instance this website reports the SAR values for ZTE Open and ZTE Open C http://www.phonearena.com/phones/compare/ZTE-Open,ZTE-Open-C/phones/7744,8463?ft=2. Where can I look for manufacturer information?

Hi erotvlas,

The manufacturer for the Flame reference device is T2Mobile. You may be able to find their contact information on their website:

Please let us know if you have any other questions.

Thanks!!

Check this for Flame Device

Hi,

are there any news about Flame device?

Thank

Hi erotavlas,

I don't believe that Mozilla has access to this information about this specific device.

Were you able to contact T2Mobile directly through the link I provided earlier?

Hi Ralph,

yes I tried to connect to T2mobile by sending two emails, but I did not received any answer.

Hi,

is it truth that Flame device does not support 3G+ (HSDPA) data connections but only GSM+UMTS connections? If yes it will be a fail...

Hi erotavlas,

I personally have seen the 'H' icon showing up on my Flame device, which would suggest that HSDPA is supported. However, not all the frequencies from my carrier (T-mobile) are supported, so data connection isn't always the best.

I contacted our TAMs (Technical Account Managers) who have a relationship with the OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers) so that they can confirm the SAR value and whether HSDPA is supported.

I will post back in this thread as soon as I hear of any news!

Thanks,

well according to the flames "getting started" manual the sar values are:

• head sar: umts 2100 + bt +wifi: 0,253 w/kg
• body-worn-sar: umts 2100 + bt + wifi 0,322 w/kg

and then there is this sentence: "the highest sar value for this model mobile phone when tested is 0,39 w/kg for use at the ear and 0,77 w/kg for use close up to the body.
