729557 - Need Firefox icon for MWC specified Nightly build

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect, P1)

Description

[Jaclyn Fu]

To keep our brand consistent, we will need the Nightly build we're using at MWC to have a Firefox logo instead of the Nightly logo. 

Erin - can you provide info on which build we're going with? 

Thanks!

(referring to the app icon you see on your Android home screen)

This is blocking.

This means we'll need to do a special one-off build with official branding. Personally, I would not want to do that. We only use official branding for official release builds. This would not be an official release build.

I would agree. That feels wrong to me as well.

OK, let me check with Chris Beard.

This will be for the builds installed on the demo devices only.  It will not be for distribution.  I want to use the Firefox logo for these as we don't want to introduce new brands or complexity, and people picking up the devices to "play around" should only have to think "let me check out Firefox" vs. "I wonder what this globe icon is?"

I hope that clears it up.  I don't know if there is an easy way to do this, but it's something we should try to do for MWC only.

This makes sense to me; fall back is currently the 2/19 build; we will be testing the 2/23 build with the latest web api tonight (waverly) and tomorrow.  There are some checkins to make the Awesome Page faster today.

Damon - Does this bug block release? I don't think it does, but even so, I don't think we are using the blocking-fennec1.0 flag anymore. Use the fennecnative-beta(release)blocker keyword.

Not sure if we have enough time for releng to complete this and QA to qualify.  CC'ing aki and joduinn.

I think we can get this by pushing whatever changeset we want to Try, with official branding instead of nightly branding.

Per Naoki, we want to have a branded build off the same revision as the 2/23 m-c android native nightly.

Per http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mobile/nightly/2012-02-23-03-12-36-mozilla-central-android/fennec-13.0a1.en-US.android-arm.txt , that's http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/5e756e59a794 .


I submitted the following build to try:

We did these builds for MWC.
