I saw on this thread: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/992324?esab=a&s=zte+open+1.2&r=0&as=s

it was being discussed that if you updated to 1.2 pre-release, you ran into a potential major issue which is the notification tray does not slide down. I, unfortunately have run into this problem. Is there anyone who can provide steps on how to pull the latest build from git and compile it so I can fix this? I'm afraid my technical expertise has hit a wall in this case.

I have the ZTE Open from Ebay, MacOSX 10.9.2

I installed 1.2 through my terminal using this tutorial:

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Unfortunately 1.3 has not been totally settled yet but it is up to the manufacturer to compile their own update from us and release it to you. If you want to try flashing 1.3 onto your device you can check out the Mozilla developers network.

Hi, thanks for the response. Yea, I ended up finding a compiled FFOS 1.3 on xda-forums and installed in. So at least the phone pretty much works again and it's 99% there.

Thanks again for the response and this thread can be closed/resolved now. :)
