even google chrome works since ur phone is armv7..and chrome is more faster than firefox, but it sometime uses more battery..
so use both and decide for ur self

he said Firefox OS, not the webbrowser...
Firefox OS source not released yet, it should be introduced to masses in MWC February

its not matter of free or paid version its matter of licencing as you kno you can find many apps free but you can not have access to their source code so you cant get into the source to add your modification but you can clone it (im not sure but it may be illegal in some cases ) so yeah you can have a read here for more details http://www.apache.org/licenses/
i was just refering site where ported apps are posted

I think Google Chrome (the beta version) was for ics, so I think that when we have a complete ics rom, we´ll can use Google Chrome in Samsung Galaxy Ace.
If I´m not right, please correct me, because I´m not sure if Google Chrome was for every Android 4 devices or only for Galaxy Nexus.
Sorry if I don´t talk very good in English, It´s because I´m Spanish and I´m Studying English, so I´ll try to talk in English as well I can
Nope.. Google chrome For android works only on devices with an armv7-processor.
The ace has an armv6..

That's a modded browser not Chrome.
Chrome hasn't been ported for ARMv6 yet.
Firefox, on the other hand, is under development by the Mozilla Team. Google for it.

XDA, ive got a challenge for you!

I've got an old Samsung Galaxy Mini S5570. It won't start, It goes into Download Mode, Not into CWM Recovery. I don't care about this Phone, and it's in crappy condition. But, It would be amazing to see if someone actually could install another OS on it. I only know a Three alternative Phone OS, which are iOS, Android and Firefox OS. (If you know another one, name it.)
I'm Shure iOS won't run on it, so we can count that one out. I don't want Android on it either, so count that one out too, Which leaves us down to FireFox OS.
So, Whos interested in making this thing work?

I think you can't install another OS, but you can install custom Rom based on it, like iOS rom, windows 8 and others. If you don't want android os, you shouldn't have bought it in the first place
I bought it 2 summers ago, it was my first Android Phone.
I'm a Noob when it comes to ROMs, I usually like what it out-of-the-box.

Just a complete guess, but I would think as long as the hardware supports whatever you're trying to run on it, it will accept any OS. Just like you can install Linux or Mac on an old windows computer, all you really should need is the framework. As far as I know hardware isn't necessarily specific to software. In theory it should be possible. :beer:

Did you mean Gecko OS ? Wow, you don't want Android heh... why ? Android has better customization than both Firefox, and iOS.
If you don't want Android then why you run Android X86 on your PC, :sigh: people these days...

Mini can run :
1. Debian
2. Ubuntu
3. Android
4. Windows 95
5. Windows 2000
6. Windows XP SP1 / SP2
Meaning of these color :
- Orchid : Can run without any simulated platform, overclock, and flashing things. That means it's was "firstly there, and always there"
- Dark Green : Need a simulated platform, but no need to overclock and flashing things. That means it's was "secondly there and maybe there"
- Light Green : Need a tougher simulated platform, need a overclock feature + kernel. That means it's was "maybe there, and sometime there"
So give him Java, symbian, bada and meego. Just joking

Its super smooth for me... Bug fixes seemed to have a good improvement
I feel it smoother too and they said they will catch up with the desktop version in early next year. Yay!
It is still a slow rendering resource pig.

Still no plugin support and that's most disappointing. If they really do make a full desktop browser experience it will be welcome with open arms. As it sits now, I want nothing more than to filter the crap ads that permeate every part of the internet, without the need of a separate app that may or may not work without rooting.

Still the only Android browser that doesn't have an easy to access History option. Utterly bizarre that they hide it away and you need to enter an url to get to it.

I'd just be happy if they fixed the thumbnails on the bookmarks widget not showing up. its been like that from the beginning. How do they not notice that? Sometimes i wonder whether Google employees actually use android devices.
Although to give them their dues, page rendering seems a lot faster on the new update. really noticeable for me.
For me, the chrome update has made a world of difference in loading times. I was using opera mobile because chrome was so slow, but now chrome is flying past opera. Don't get me wrong, it's not flawless, but the loading speeds are what matter most for me.

Weird issue for me with the new Chrome: Tried opening a website last night on it and it told me I needed to set a proxy server, then provided instructions on how to do that but only applicable to the desktop Chrome. Opened the same website via Firefox Nightly and it was fine.
Chrome update has been a lot better for me. It used to be very slow and calculated. Now I can zip around pages.

Omg please tell me you are just kidding :crying: :crying: :crying:
I started reading a lot of info yesterday because i figure out that BBM it wasn't going to be compatible with gingerbread, i flashed at least 5 roms, fixed permissions at least 15 times and drank at least 12 cups of coffe, just because i thought i was doing something wrong.
now all i can do is killing my self.
Dudes chill out ! The official BBM app hasn't been released yet !
And the leaks worked for about a day only so no bbm(official if you want the fake then there are plenty of apps out there) for now
it hurts when I help someone and they say thanks Instead of pressing the button

proton is right, here is the official statement:
Prior to launching BBM for Android, an unreleased version of the BBM for Android app was posted online. The interest and enthusiasm we have seen already – more than 1.1 million active users in the first 8 hours without even launching the official Android app – is incredible. Consequently, this unreleased version caused issues, which we have attempted to address throughout the day.
Our teams continue to work around the clock to bring BBM to Android and iPhone, but only when it’s ready and we know it will live up to your expectations of BBM. We are pausing the global roll-out of BBM for Android and iPhone. Customers who have already downloaded BBM for iPhone will be able to continue to use BBM. The unreleased Android app will be disabled, and customers who downloaded it should visit www.BBM.com to register for updates on official BBM for Android availability.

Play store says that is only compatible with android 4.0 and up, i think that using cm 10, 10.1, 10.2 or AOSP, maybe works. Maybe.
