Hi, I tried to install Firefox on my Huawei 8500 (Android 2.1) but it is indicated that is not supported. You can get some clarification? Firefox might work with my corporate proxy, and it would be extremely useful

Hey Kyashan29,

Unfortunately, the Huawei 8500 device contains hardware that is below our minimum specification for running Firefox on Android [1].

Minimum hardware requirements for Firefox require:

  • A phone with an ARMv7 processor.
  • Approximately 17MB internal or SD storage and a device with at least 512MB of RAM.

You can find all current supported devices at http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/mobile/platforms/
