What devices is Firefox OS available for? Is the OS pre-loaded or can it be installed?

It would be helpful if the Firefox OS homepage had a fork that explained what devices support Firefox OS. I have a Nokia E7-00 that runs the Symbian OS. Is there any chance a Firefox OS could be flashed to this hardware within 0-4 years?

Hi avklotz,

Firefox OS comes flashed onto commercial devices:

Technically, it's possible to port Firefox OS to another system, but there is no work done on the Nokia E7-00 that I know of, so it would likely be a very big, lengthy, and risky process.

MDN (Mozilla Developer Network) has documentation on it, if you are interested:

I hope you find this information useful. Please let us know if you have any other questions or comments.

Thanks!!
