Re: [b2g] Save/restore feature

Hi all, We create a demo tool for this. It allows user to manage, backup and restore data (such as contacts, sms, pictures, music...) of a Firefox OS 1.3 phone from a host computer. For details and screenshots, see:http://1drv.ms/1fUzBbk The tool is composed of a host application running in

Re: [b2g] Save/restore feature

I know that Brian Smith and Tanvi Vyas from our security team had done some research on authentication and authorization solutions for the remote debugging protocol (which we haven't implemented yet) that included protocols like ZRTP and J-PAKE. It would be a good idea to talk to them about this.

For WebRTC, we can use any kinds of medium to deliver the SDP between host and device. It's not necessary to have a extra server for it. So for example, we could read the SDP from a QR code via camera. Best Regards, Shih-Chiang Chien Mozilla Taiwan On Jul 9, 2013, at 3:00 PM, Yuan Xulei wrote:

For pairing, it includes two features. - Service Discovery -- find each other. - Authentication & Authorization. UPnP is an obvious solution for service discovery. For authentication and authorization, it can be a plain password or a 2D bar code. "Kan-Ru Chen (陳侃如)" writes: > Yuan Xulei wr

I think BT is a very poor and slow option. WIFI is much better than BT if want to backup data wirelessly. With WIFI, we have much more protocols in the list; ex. WebDAV. Fabrice Desre writes: > On 07/06/2013 07:28 PM, James Burke wrote: >> On Sat, Jul 6, 2013 at 3:58 PM, Fabrice Desre wrote: >>

[b2g] Save/restore feature

Hi all, One feature currently missing in b2g is a way to manage/backup/restore data from the phone on a host computer. There are various scripts floating around, but they are no substitute for a real end-user oriented solution. Here's a rough proposal on how to build that functionality. First of
