Firefox OS QA held a Bug Bash on Thursday, October 23 2014. Participants from all over the world were invited to test the latest build of Firefox OS v2.1 on their Flame devices and report any bugs found. Coordinators in 5 locations helped to organize multi-hour sessions in their timezones in which 48 people participated. 10 were remoties, who joined these sessions via video conference.

A total of 117 bugs were filed across a broad range of Firefox OS components.
