Dogfooding is easy: just use the phone, try new things, tinker, play, and try to break stuff. Here are some tips/tricks to make sure we learn as much as we can from your dogfooding. Here are some tips to get you started.
- Leave feedback often. You have a feedback app on the phone. It's the pen icon in the bottom bar. You may have swipe left to see it. Tap and leave your contact info RIGHT NOW (use your mozilla email address please). That way it's there the next time you want to give feedback. Have more to say? Use the Feedback Site and be sure to provide your asset tag when leaving feedback on the site.
- Take screenshots of issues. Creating screenshots is easy. Just hold the home button and click the power button. To get the screenshots out, simply connect the phone to your laptop, and mount as a USB device (or come find one of the B2G Ambassadors and we'll help you out).
- Restart when stuck. Phone stuck? It happens. Take a screenshot if you can. Then pull out the battery wait a few seconds and reboot your phone. Please leave feedback with as detailed instructions as you can on how you got to that state so we can troubleshoot the problem.
- Reflash when all else fails. Major problems? You may need to reflash your phone. Come find someone in IT or a B2G Ambassador and we'll get it up and running quickly.
- File bugs (if you really want to). The easiest way to provide feedback is using the Feedback and we'll file bugs for issues that are reported. If you wish to file bugs though, you can do so under the Boot2Gecko. Mention you're dogfooding the unagi phone, include any info from Settings > Device Information > More Information.
