Do you mean a ZTE phone running Firefox OS? Or a ZTE phone running Android, with Firefox as an app?
Apologies for not being more precise. I mean Firefox OS.
If you are referring to Firefox OS, have you seen the Firefox OS documentation?
e.g.: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox_OS/Platform/Architecture
Yes. It gives me a bit of a picture. Still, I could not find the source code yet, and I don't know how many binary BLOBs will be on the ZTE phone. It also does not give me an idea what I can expect in regards of upgrading. IMHO, one of the pitfalls of Androids and others is to rely on the manufacturer to upgrade a system. If it's "magically patched" there isn't a way to deal with this properly. A central repository would be good, as we have for Linux and *BSD distros. But any insight of the project would be welcome.
