Hi everyone,
QA needs your help to find bad bugs with 2.0 on 273MB Flame. We need everyone
to join us in testing our product together at a bug bash to be held on July
24th from 4:00pm to 7:00pm PDT in the QA vidyo room (associated meeting rooms
are Sanctuary in MTV, The Warfield in SF, and Orange in Taipei).
Folks in different locations are encouraged to show up/stay earlier or later to
fit their respective schedules.
We want everyone who shows up to try to use 2.0 as a real user. That means
locking your phone with Find My Device, using playing music in music player,
browsing your favorite websites, using the calendar app with your Google
Calendar, of course making phone calls and sending SMSes, sending emails with
your email account in the email app, etc.
Everyone is welcome to join. To participate, we recommend you to bring your
Flame set to 273MB (some Flames will be able to be borrowed in MTV) to the bug
bash with the latest 2.0 build running on it. Here is how to throttle down the
memory: https://intranet.mozilla.org/QA/B2G_Tips_and_Tricks#Throttling_the_phone
We'll provide free pizza for the Mountain View attendees during the bug bash.
Additionally, we'll have prizes for the (1) most blocker bugs found, (2)
highest number of bugs found during the bug bash, and (3) the most creative
screenshot made out of the Gallery tiles.
All of the details can be found here:

Hope to see you around!
Jason Smith & Johan Lorenzo
While I think the goals of this are laudable, I'm concerned that the
bugs we'll get (primarily of the MemShrink variety) won't be
representative of a true low end device, and we'll end up spending dev
time fixing issues that would not necessarily manifest on real hardware.
The issue of doing a better job at simulating a low end device has been
raised in separate threads, but I'll reiterate a few points here:
* zram - the disk size needs to be lowered
* display - one recommendation was to set it to HVGA instead of FWVGA
* camera - in some way simulate a lower res camera
It's not clear to me _how_ we do those things, but I'm sure other folks
can chime in. If we can figure that out for the bug bash I say go for
it, if not I think we should hold off.
