This is a placeholder page for design / discussion around Metrics in FxOS
Phase 1
Requirements
For User Benefit, knowing the following information will security updates and app functionality
- Build IDs, Country, Operator, OEM, Version of HW: These are needed for Device Updates and Security patches: When a bug is found, or a security risk is detected, they need to be sent as an update to the particular OEM, Operator.
- Screen Height, Width, Pixel density: This is needed for CoreApps development (Gallery, Camera, Dialer, Browser) and 3rd party apps. These apps need to know the screen sizes, resolutions that they would need to support.
Design of Ping
- Is triggered through the first-time use experience / activation. Will automatically retry until it is successful (on a 1 hour interval)
- Never pings again once it is successful (unless the phone's "userdata" partition is formatted through the recovery partition, but this is not a case we support generally, it means wiping all of the user's data)
- Can also be disabled, but requires extra work on top of disabling app updates or removing the Firefox marketplace app
Delta to what exists today
- Information:
- Gives the total number of "sold"(activated) FFOS devices, whereas current ping gives the devices connected to WiFi on a particular day
- Product decision making needs the Devices sold info
- Reliability
- Current Ping from 1.3 shows approx 5 devices reporting as of March 24th 2014.
