FWIW, I'm very happy developing on my ZTE open.  It took a little while to 
generate a boot.img to root the phone.  I did find that the 
"OPEN_US_DEV_FFOS_V1.0.0B02" base image was insufficient to effectively develop 
on the device.  I needed to use an exploit to enable root priveledges, generate 
a custom boot.img, and flash.

There are plenty of posts out there which helped me along, but it certainly 
wasn't simple.

the key for me to establish a good development env (for flashing gecko/b2g and 
gaia) was to flash the phone with a default.prop that includes:

ro.secure=0
ro.allow.mock.location=1
ro.debuggable=1
persist.usb.serialno=lloyd_inari_fox
persist.sys.usb.config=adb

Would a post of my experience be useful, or are folks generally able to hack 
their ZTE opens without as much fuss as I experienced?
