Hi everyone,

Bug 810092 and Bug 874484 just landed on b2g-inbound, so they'll most likely 
show up on m-c (aka master) within a day.

Since this affects adb, I figured that an announcement would be appropriate.

First of all, the changes should have no impact on builds which have marionette 
enabled (i.e. developer-built builds, VARIANT unspecified, VARIANT=eng, 
VARIANT=userdebug).

For production builds (this should include nightlies), then there will be some 
changes.

Bug 810092 - When the phone is locked, then ADB will be disabled. This won't 
turn off the Remote Debugging setting (Settings->Device Information->More 
Information->Developer), which means that ADB will be re-enabled as soon as the 
phone is unlocked. If you disable phone lock (Settings->Phone lock), then ADB 
will stay on.

Bug 874484 - 12 hours after ADB is enabled, it will be disabled. This causes 
the Remote Debugging setting to be unchecked. You can disable this by changing 
the b2g.adb.timeout-hours preference to zero. The 12 hour default is set in 
gecko/b2g/app/b2g.js. 

I put together a shell script which you can run to disable the timer
