I note that Firefox works on a Huawei Impulse 4G phone. Do you have plans to make it available for a Huawei 858 Vodafone smartphone some time in the future, please?

Thank you.

Possibly, it meets all the minimum specifications. Does the device have the Android market? If you search for Firefox on the market does it show up?

If not you can get Firefox manually at http://bit.ly/fennecftp Note there is no updater in this build so to stay safe and get the performance improvements you will need to check the link for new releases (every 6 weeks).

Thanks for your prompt reply. Yes my phone can connect to the Android market. When I perform a search for Firefox on the market, it only shows up books, no apps. When I type in http/fennec etc (correctly), I get a screen showing "Index of/pub/mozilla.org/mobile/releases/latest/android/multi", with 2 choices underneath - a "Parent Directory" and one with a ? So I have selected the one with the ? It showed "downloading" for a few seconds, then returned to the "Index etc" menu. There is nothing new on my phone - certainly not Firefox.

Not sure what to do now, but thanks for your suggestion.

It transpires that my phone is blocked to non-market downloads. When I try to clear this, I get a warning message that "my phone and personal data are more vulnerable to attack by apps from unknown sources. I have to agree that I am solely responsible for any damage to my phone or loss of data" So, I am a little uneasy about this!
