When there's a system update notification it tells you how big is it (XYZ Mb), but then when downloading, it just says how much it has downloaded so far and shows an indeterminate loading spinner. Unless you focus on remembering the size of the download you can't tell how far it is or how long will it take for it to finish which makes for a disappointing experience. Please can we have a % downloaded indicator, as we DO know how big the file is in advance. I'm using Nightly 20140413 on a Geeksphone keon.
This issue also occurs on the Flame. In Flame 2.0 it has the loading spinner but in 2.1, 2.2, and 3.0 it just has the blue/white striped bar that animates (http://youtu.be/fdbVLTEDNZg). A finite bar with an accurate representation of amount downloaded and remaining would make for a better UX. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Device: Flame 3.0 (OTA) Build ID: 20150209010211 Gaia: 0d7b35f23402c4cb29bca6b98280fec48a196dec Gecko: 3436787a82d0 Gonk: e7c90613521145db090dd24147afd5ceb5703190 Version: 38.0a1 (3.0) Firmware Version: v18D-1 User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Mobile; rv:38.0) Gecko/38.0 Firefox/38.0 Device: Flame 3.0 (KK - Nightly - Full Flash) Build ID: 20150209010211 Gaia: 0d7b35f23402c4cb29bca6b98280fec48a196dec Gecko: 3436787a82d0 Gonk: e7c90613521145db090dd24147afd5ceb5703190 Version: 38.0a1 (3.0) Firmware Version: v18D-1 User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Mobile; rv:38.0) Gecko/38.0 Firefox/38.0 Device: Flame 2.2 (KK - Nightly - Full Flash) Build ID: 20150209002504 Gaia: e827781324cbde91d2434b388f5dead3303a85ee Gecko: 0552759956d3 Gonk: e7c90613521145db090dd24147afd5ceb5703190 Version: 37.0a2 (2.2) Firmware Version: v18D-1 User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Mobile; rv:37.0) Gecko/37.0 Firefox/37.0 Device: Flame 2.2 (KK - Nightly - Full-Flashed) Build ID: 20150209002504 Gaia: e827781324cbde91d2434b388f5dead3303a85ee Gecko: 0552759956d3 Gonk: e7c90613521145db090dd24147afd5ceb5703190 Version: 37.0a2 (2.2) Firmware Version: v18D User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Mobile; rv:37.0) Gecko/37.0 Firefox/37.0 Device: Flame 2.1 (KK - Nightly - Full-Flashed) Build ID: 20150209001212 Gaia: 4a14bb118d55f3d15293c2ff55b7f29f9b0bfcdb Gecko: 6cbe28d0bb8c Gonk: e7c90613521145db090dd24147afd5ceb5703190 Version: 34.0 (2.1) Firmware Version: v18D-1 User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Mobile; rv:34.0) Gecko/34.0 Firefox/34.0 Device: Flame 2.0 (KK - Nightly - Full-Flashed) Build ID: 20150209000204 Gaia: 2989f2b2bd12fcc0e9c017d2db766e76a55873b8 Gecko: ad3cf982b94d Gonk: e7c90613521145db090dd24147afd5ceb5703190 Version: 32.0 (2.0) Firmware Version: v18D-1 User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Mobile; rv:32.0) Gecko/32.0 Firefox/32.0

Hi Gerry, I agree with the proposal here. When downloading, let's show: (Title line) Downloading updates... (second line) %size_of_downloaded/%size_of_total_file %unit downloaded For example: Downloading updates... 30.3/52 MB downloaded Thanks!
