I have a ZTE Open and a Geeksphone.

The 1.1 release was a huge upgrade, but they still have some ways to go. There are problems with the HTML5 Canvas element and positioning DOM nodes/scrolling.

How do you get the 1.1 update for the ZTE Open? Does it need to be downloaded over the air, i.e., won't work if you're using the Open with wifi only?

I have a ZTE Open as well. Did they release 1.1 for it? I thought they didn't.

In my experience, it's not straightforward. First you need to install an update from ZTE to unlock fastboot. Then you'll need to compile 1.1 on your own, and flash it yourself. I'm hoping ZTE releases an OTA update, but I'm not holding my breath.
