I have Android phone , Dell Venue. It has Android 2.2. I heard a lot good things about Firefox OS and I would like to install it in my phone. Will it Overrite Android and will Firefox OS let phone use someting like Android Market to get an application?

This Firefox OS is competable with AT&T 3G and 4G?

Installing FirefoxOS isn't easy. It will overwrite Android, void any warrantys you phone has, and most likely break your phone in unfixable ways.

ONLY try this if you have extensive knowledge of FirefoxOS and your Phone and are comfortable rooting and flashing your device
