Status: VERIFIED FIXED

Description

[Nick Nguyen [:osunick]]

The rules are in bug 514610, we should make sure we're still looking for the Fennec UA and switch the default AMO home page to mobile.

Is there a problem?  What is the Fennec UA?

Comment 2

[Wil Clouser [:clouserw]]

Fennec UA has "fennec" in it - we're looking for mobile.

about:fennec gives me this for my 1.1 build on my n900:

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux armv7l; en-US; rv:1.9.2.5) Gecko/20100614 Firefox/3.6.5pre Fennec/1.1

That doesn't work, but 2.0a1 works for Ayan; that's intended, right?  Only going to work for builds from then on?

Fennec trunk nightlies now have "Firefox" in the UA string too.  This change happened after Fennec 2.0a1 branched.  Before this month, only official releases (beta, RC, and final) had "Firefox" in the UA.

Using a recent Fennec 2.0b1pre build, I get the non-mobile home page at https://preview.addons.mozilla.org/.  Here's the UA:

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:2.0b6pre) Gecko/20100831 Firefox/4.0b6pre Fennec/2.0b1pre

Verified FIXED; works with both the stable 1.1 release, as well as the 2.0a1 and 2.0b1pre builds!
