Firefox OS Identification

Firefox OS is a new mobile phone operating system. which is open source and Linux based.

The ZTE Open is the first Firefox OS based phone from a major producer, and this is what I tested to see how different counters reported a visit to this website.



The user agent string is:

Mozilla/5.0 (Mobile; rv:18.0) Gecko/18.0 Firefox/18.0

which should identify as Firefox 18 / Firefox OS


Firefox / Unknown:

BraveNet
GoStats
24Log
SiteMeter


Firefox 18 / Unknown:

ExtremeTracking
ShinyStats  


Firefox 18 / Firefox OS:

Statcounter
W3

Thus, currently, only two counters correctly identify Firefox OS ~ Statcounter, and W3.

Statcounter Now Identifies Jolla.

Recently I  checked out the response of Traffic Analysis Tools to my new Jolla phone. Alas, none correctly identified Jolla, and some results were completely wide of the mark. However, today I playing around with Opera 19 and I then noticed:

Click for finer detail.

Jolla Browser: Sailfish 1.0 Jolla Jolla 360x640

Opera 19: Opera 19.0 on Android Jolla Jolla 360x592

This is progress!
