Currently using geeksphone and peak to develop, every time I flash I have to go through FTU, make sure the screen doesnt turn off, enable adb etc etc

OH!  You're using geeksphone...

Folks at geeksphone, would it be possible for you to create an engineering build as well?
Component: General → Vendcom
OS: Mac OS X → Gonk (Firefox OS)
Hardware: x86 → ARM
We already do images for 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 and 1.4 for 2 devices so it's impossible to us to make more versions :(

But all the sources from our phones are public, you only need to build it yourself, and take out FTU, enable adb and anything you need.

And if you only compile gaia and gecko, i think that you can use variables to take this out, like REMOTE_DEBUGGING=1 and so on...
I'm not sure I understand; why is it impossible?  I think a 1.4 engineering build on the two different phones would make sense, wouldn't it?  Wasn't the intent for these phones to be used for developmental purposes originally?  Perhaps I am missing some information...
By now we do 4 versions for 2 devices which is 8 versions that we build everyday. We cannot build two versions at the same time and it last almost 2 hours to build one version, so our server is building 16 hours at day. 

Well, it's not impossible, but at office time we need our build server too, so there is no time to build a new version in a daily basis.

About change our builds from user to eng, i will share this info with some people and see if there is any problem, but bear in mint that althought this devices are for development, many people use it as a principal phone and they really dont want to lose the FTU, by example. It's much easy for people that develop to build its own eng build... they are developing FFOS, arent they?
When I filed the bug I wasnt suggesting geeksphone should do it on our behalf, either mozilla releng should, or I was filing this to do the nightly builds myself.
