Video: Firefox OS, B2G running on Nokia N9?

| July 20, 2012 | 23 Replies

What you’re looking at in this video is supposedly FireFox OS on the Nokia N9 via B2G..

Very nice result of merging Mozilla Firefox OS project and Nitdroid N9.
Nitdroid provides Android HAL for N9, and B2G/FF OS actually ported already to android HAL.
As result we have N9 running B2G, wlan support, hdspa, data connection, SMS, and simple phone calls without sound.
WebGL, HW acceleration works not super fast but acceptable

    Early pre-alpha build, but still:

    LOOKS INCREDIBLY UGLY.

    First it was Android (until ICS) and then this… that’s what you get when your team of visual designers lacks the most common aesthetic sense.

    why is it upside down?

    Nice, might be almost time to finally give NITdroid and this a whirl!
    Was waiting till it was much less experimental, still long ways to go, but still going strongly too.
    More interested in the possibility of running NITdoid chrooted…
    With that there wouldn’t be any need to “boot into” NITroid, just launch it from inside Harmattan.

  9. James says:

    Anyone tried the latest build of NITdoid & this yet, experiences?
