Expected: there shouldn't be a discrepancy
Actual: there is a discrepancy

For Android:
Example 1:
https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/daad30b2-fa34-4aec-98c5-5bb5c2110921
example here shows : asus Transformer TF101
asus/US_epad/TF101:3.2/HTJ85B/US_epad-8.6.5.9-20110816:user/release-keys 


Example 2:
http://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/167c7ef1-88ca-4cb9-8242-a51562110727
where it states :
Process Notes aren't listed because they're too long
This was on my own toshiba thrive. 


Example 3:
https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/bp-6f729417-73ca-4c32-9706-dbfd82110901
third example is does not even show the App notes section 

Note:
This might need to move to the breakpad instead of soccorro?

I think it actually belongs in GFX, not in either Breakpad or Socorro. Benoit?

What discrepancy do you see at this point?

The discrepancy that I can see is that while Desktop Firefox crash reports report Graphics information, Fennec crash reports don't. If this is what this bug is about, then I confirm that this should move to Core:Graphics.
