Steps to reproduce:

Hi,

there should be a way getting more Device Information for Debugging Logs. I´m working on an app that will send error logs "home". (with informing the user)

For fixing bugs I need informations like:

Gaia Build Hash / Date
Hardware Info (iccid, msisdn, imei)

Would be nice to get them via:

navigator.mozGaiaBuildDate
navigator.mozGaiaBuildHash
navigator.mozDeviceIccid
navigator.mozDeviceMsisdn
navigator.mozDeviceImei

I did look at how Gaia Settings App handles this. But there´s no way to get this Information in external apps:

Nice, found out that there´s a

navigator.mozMobileConnection

in Firefox OS that contains ICCID, MSISDN, and IMEI.
Now only Gaia Build Date and Hash si missing. :)

There's also a new FFOS App called FxStumbler that needs more info like network MCC, MCN, GSM cell ID, signal strength aso. These APIs shouldn't be certified, I think privileged would be a better choice.
