Firefox OS ROM for HTC HD2

Here is the first Firefox OS ROM ported to “the best” phone ever, of course – we are talking about the HTC HD2

In fact, that’s the first Firefox OS ROM port ever, thanks to feherneoh from XDA-Developers. It’s based on the NexusHD2-ICS ROM and uses tytung-ics kernel with modified ramdisk. Of course, the Firefox OS ROM is in very early alpha stage and it’s for testing only.

What’s working:

• Mobile network (SIM not detected correctly, but STK apps are loaded)
• Sound (works, but with very low volume)
• Camera (sometimes it works)
• Bluetooth
• Wi-Fi and Marketplace

This is a NativeSD ROM and can be installed from recovery, you can find the kernel in “BootHD2Gecko” folder on /sdcard, in case you are using cLK, use NativeSD-TWRP to install the extracted kernel. After the Firefox logo you will get a black screen, it’s normal – just wait a minute and the GUI will appear.
