Hello, guys, I'm interested in buying this device, but first I'd like to know if there are any issues with tethering (both BT and WiFi) because I mostly use my smartphone as a phone and a hotspot (there are no legal issues with that in Russia). Does it consume too much power so the device won't work until night?

There should not be any issues as tethering is supported and the battery life of the ZTE Open is great like most other devices out for Firefox OS.

Not reccomend you but ZTE Open.
a) Low memory
b) ZTE is not normally support phone (official firmare based on FF OS 1.0 and have only English language)
c) Slow work
But better Geekphone. ZTE Open is my first and last phone of ZTE. Real not good.

Hi, I am looking to get the Aria for the wife, but I saw a post (unable to now find) that claimed it did not support WPA2/AES, I have checked on the HTC site and the manuals, I have searched on here and google and no clear indicators.
Can anyone confirm or revoke this for me?
Cheers

Mine works fine with WPA2/AES on my network. However, I've had more than one new Laptop recently that wouldn't connect, and from my experience, WPA2/AES can be a bit hit or miss based on the compatibility of the hardware/firmware of the router and connecting device.

Here using WPA2/AES with my Aria with no problem (with stock, FR008 Liberated and CM7 ROMs)
And I guess some laptops may have problems with it, as WinXP needs an update to work with WPA2 if I'm not wrong.

Hello on android lost i installed the android lost app and android lost jumpstart on my nexus 7 and when i go to androidlost.com andgoto controls it says Waiting for phone to be registered.
thank you
lukas
I think (but am not 100%sure) it requires cell service to control the app via (hidden) SMS messages.
If that is indeed the case, it won't work on wifi-only devices.
You didn't mention whether your unit was a wifi-only or 3g model.
I'm not sure what to recommend as I'm unfamiliar with apps in this space - maybe Plan B ? But for all I know, it might also use the same control channel.
Good luck

It does look like the dev specifically is trying to address wifi-only devices; OTOH the comment in the "what's new" section from the apps market page sounds like the Dev doesn't have a N7 to test...
Making detection of phone state optional since lots of tablets does not have phone capabilities. Hopefully this should make it work on google nexus 7 tablets

I would try contacting the app dev (reading between the lines, I got the impression you are testing the app rather than having lost the tablet) - he might be eager to have some testers on the N7
good luck

So i have my nexus 7 and it runs fine... got a rom on it.. no problems at all..
but i just bought a second one that i plan on giving to family in russia when i go visit them next week...
being a US user, i have never had any issues using the device but i am wondering how i can make it fully compatible for use in Russia...
the obvious answer is to choose russian as the language during setup but thats not enough... half the things are still written in english and all music shown is american...
what can i do to make it better capable for use in russia?
thanks

Dont think we'll see it anytime soon. Most of the devs working on it are GSM users so they dont give a care about ud CDMA uers. Isnt at&t gsm anyway?
Anything in the USA is CDMA, and outside of the US is GSM.
Adding CDMA isn't something one of our developers could do. It would require canonical to partner with an in US cellular company i.e. Sprint, Att, Verizon, etc...
So just wait until they have a hardware vendor preparing to sell the real handset.
CDMA will come into the picture with time.

Not true, T-mobile and AT&T are both GSM.
And ofono supports cdma now, its a matter of getting it to recognize the device.

Agreed but it can't be as bad as MIUI, having to rewrite the entire RIL and then doing a ****load of smali edit is a huge pain but its done all the time.

I don't think ofono supports CDMA completely yet, us CDMA users will have to be patient. It is being worked on thoughhttps://ofono.org/blogs/bertrandaygon/2011/ofono-049.
The OS is coming along well though.
I would use Ubuntu touch CDMA or not.

I am looking to upgrade my phone on Verizon. But want to make sure that the one I get will be easily able to be unlocked and run Ubuntu Touch.
So in short, though Ubuntu Touch may not be ported to it yet. What is the best bet for a MODERN phone, that is well made enough to last 2 to 3 years (there are still some Nokia N900s out there going strong, so don't tell me its not possible) to upgrade to that is the most hackable? I've considered the Sam G Note 2, because of the really large screen. But don't know how "Hackable" it is in comparison to other devices.
Not the Nexus, very capable phone but won't be able to fully use desktop mode with full power. I would prefer 4G, since Verizon has stated that they will drop all other radio support in the next 2 to 3 years and only use 4G for voice and data.
Thank you and God Bless you guys and the work you do here!!

I'm sorry I didn't state it fully. I am looking for the most HACKABLE device that way it will be the most likely device to LATER receive a port for Ubuntu Touch. Not that it currently has Ubuntu Touch.
I backed the Ubuntu Edge crowdfunding campaign and was willing to wait a almost a full year before receiving what I paid for. I would be more than willing to wait for a port for the same software but different device. And would donate to the person or persons that did the most work.
Pretty much has to be Quad Core of some kind, as much Ram as possible. And ability to use an SD card so storage space won't be an issue. And again, it HAS to be high quality enough to last atleast 2 to 3 year. My Moto Droid 2 has gone through 3 warranty replacements in the past 2 years. I refuse to deal with that level of incompetent hardware development. If an N900 can last almost 5 years and still go strong using various different Linux Operating systems with more capabilities than the original. Then Modern Android Manufacturers have no excuse.
Sorry for the rant, if you didn't catch that, I'm a little bit peeved at hardware companies lately.

Sorry, I misunderstood you.
I would recommend you to wait for an official device to be released because the current easy hackable devices are only Nexus or Samsung (but without drivers to port custom roms).

I've been trying to do that, because I love most of what Ubuntu Touch has shown so far. But now the left half of the touch screen on my Droid 2 Global has now stopped working. The screen still works and displays things fine. But it won't recognize any touches. It has a slide out keyboard, which helps alot cause I can use the arrow keys to do most things and still type. And I use Button Savior since this has capacitive buttons along the bottom, the left 2 buttons (Menu and Home) also no longer work. Oh and the 3.5 mm Headphone jack hasn't worked in months. And I've only had this warranty replacement for about 1 year. I would like to wait until official devices are released. But my current device is metaphorically falling to pieces.
Now you see why I am so upset with hardware manufacturers?

Oh, that's really a problem. If you don't need a high-end device asap I'd recommend you a really cheap Android device (you can keep it as a second fall-back phone). I have a Galaxy Gio as my second phone and I'd recommend that for you. It costs 40€ on ebay (I don't what it costs in your country) and has really good build quality and an active community for custom roms (you can install real stable and fast Android 4.2 on it). But it has no CDMA support.
I can't recommend you any current phone because nobody knows how they'll be working with Ubuntu Touch. Maybe the Samsung Galaxy S4...

This should be automatic if ro.product.device starts with "GT-I819" (ie GT-I8190).
But I see the official name is "golden", so next release should set it automatically.
I've enabled "golden" on Google Play for anyone who wants the full Unlocked version of Spirit.
I can only support phones well when I see sufficient sales in the Google Play app stats.
CM ROMs may stock using the stock audio library at some point, as they have on other devices. When that happens FM audio will no longer work unless I devote time to it, and ideally buy a phone myself. But I can't/won't do that without sufficient sales, especially if I get bombarded with support requests and debug logs from pirates.

To gauge popularity among custom ROM users, I look at the total XDA post counts for a phone, relative to it's age and thus the phones position in the XDA forums homepage.
IE, please don't start any campaign to get a lot of people to bug/harass me about this.
Another factor is, "does this phone sell well in parts of the world where apps, and Spirit in particular, are purchased ?". Certain corners of the world have very high piracy rates.

I tried it and it works ... though it's pain in the ass to search for stations manualy, etc.
And other things could be better, but if it's the only solution, hey... I'm OK with it.
Btw, you don't even have to change things in settings. It worked for me instantly, the moment I turned it on.
Maybe just change from 'North America' to 'World sth' (if you're not in NA), you can leave the other thing on 'automatic'.
