We love Firefox OS...but all we could get in the U.S. was eBay's ZTE Open. With all its bugs and failures, we're ready for something better. Why can't HTC or another company build higher-quality Firefox phones for EVERYONE IN THE WORLD to love? We'll even take LG Fireweb (D300). It's already out in Brazil...WHEN is it coming to the States?!

My Open is still running FFOS 1.0 and I want to update it. Since the 'check for updates' method keeps telling me there was a problem downloading updates I'm getting ready to try the SD card method. I've downloaded the relevant update from http://www.ztedevices.com/support/smart_phone/cba40ed6-d3ab-44c0-bdee-3a15803dc187.html and backed up my contacts using the Con Backup app from the marketplace, but I can't find a similarly easy way to back up my messages, and was hoping someone here could point me at something helpful - all I can find is https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox_OS/Firefox_OS_build_prerequisites#Backup_the_phone_system_partition and (whilst my laptop runs Ubuntu as well as Windows so I could theoretically try that and probably will if there's no alternative) it's frankly way over my head, so something with a bit more hand-holding or would be immensely useful.
Other potentially relevant info: I own and thus have easy access to Windows 7 and XP, and Ubuntu 13.10, and could probably borrow laptops running WIndows 8.1 and OS X for a few hours/overnight if I asked nicely enough.

I have an eBay version American standard ZTE Open with OS version 1.1 updated onto the phone. When I missed a phone call, I would be able to see a new notification on the drag down menu but the missed call would be be logged onto the call log. The missed call log is always empty.
Am I the only one who has this problem? It's annoying because if I missed a call from someone whom is not only contact list there's no way I can call the person back.

I have an ebay-bought ZTE Open. Before the recently released upgrade to Firefox OS 1.1, geolocation (in HereMaps, zMaps, etc) was working perfectly: very fast, and with a very small error. After the upgrade, geolocation locks in the wrong position and has a huge error circle. I've tried different GPS-using applications, being outside for a long time, and rebooting the phone but the problem persists. I know of, at least, one other person with exactly the same problem.

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?

I recently bought a ZTE Open off of eBay in the US. I'm currently working on building an app for the phone.
I need to upgrade to 1.2 to use the Firefox emulator that comes with FF nightlies now and test out this app on a real device. It's currently running OPEN_US_DEV_FFOS_V1.0.0B01
I've tried the Fastboot method, but... *sigh* this is one of the broken versions so that's out. The recommendation from Mozilla is to upgrade via the SD method with the image provided by ZTE on their site.
I went out and bought an SD card to do this (!) and have tried all of the .zip files and followed the instructions from ZTE (and the Mozilla Hacks blog). I've tried a ton of different things and read all the comments... but...
Frustratingly, it keeps saying "E:Signature verification failed" and won't flash when using the SD card installation in the recovery menu thingy. The thing is... the files are fine! I can select it... I'm 99% sure I'm not being an idiot. I've tried the 1.2 images as well. Nothing will verify! Nothing! :(
The phone boots up fine afterwards and I come back and try and do more googling.
Help! All I want to do is support this new OS, but... man, I've put about 5 hours of time into this so far... just the phone!

ZTE Open stuck in a reboot loop after upgrading to 1.2

I own a ZTE Open, UK edition bought form Ebay. I tried upgrading from 1.0 to 1.2 following these instructions.
The update I installed came from ZTE themselves, and was not a custom, or third-party ROM.
The upgrade worked smoothly and had no errors, and I was prompted to reboot my device. Since then it has been in a reboot loop.
I've tried entering recovery mode and restoring to factory settings, but nothing worked. Likewise, I've tried wiping the cache from recovery mode, but with no success. It's also worth adding that I cannot reach the phone via Fastboot or ADB.
Any help would be much appreciated.
