Hi! I just bought this domain that i will be either using to construct website to provide latest android firmware related files or simply will sell it if it seems to be giving profit. Please provide your valuable opinion about the domain androidfirmware.com.
Thanks!
& Regards!

Does that mean anything?
I think it could make a good sight.

First off it's a TM ~ it's worth nothing if you can't sell it

No its not like that. Its just like other android related unofficial websites like androidpit.com, android-freeware.com etc
Why you think it will not sell?

Thanks for supporting my own idea. I would love to develop it. But i am still wondering how can i bring all official roms of the devices at the website as its hard to find sources and copying them to my website. Any expertise you have in this field?

Android is OS, and Firmware is more like built-in software for specific device, I don't see close relation with Android as OS. Maybe like Firmware download site for Android phones, but does not sound good as a name to me.

Many developed websites have Android in their names so I'm not sure about their TM policy...

@talking.domains Well i don't know exactly about TM issue but yeah i have seen many sites having android in their domain names e.g. androidpit.com , androidpolice.com, androidcentral.com etc. to name a few. All these are up and running from years. Talking about name I think it was a good name. Even if Android is OS, stock android can't run as it is on any hardware. It has to be tweaked by smartphone manufacturers for branding and compatibility, bringing it close to be so called firmware for the specific model. Domain can be used under broad niche for hosting stock android firmware's for broad range of smartphones.

Develop it.. U can use autoblogging softwares that can copy content from other firmware sites.. With reference to the original author to prevent copyright issues.

Don't develop it, it can be taken by google anytime if they have wanted regardless of other people or sites who are using android in domain as unofficial sites.

Secondly, if you want to put so much work to develop something why not get a different domain.

if someone is infringing by buying tm domains, you really can't say you can use it too. You asked for "valuable" opinion yet you keep on saying you don't think it would be a tm issue.

If I were you and build a site I would buy something that does not have tm issues down the road , building sites is easier said than it's done.

@Domainscoop.com Thank you for your valuable opinion. I just read their TM policy and found that i must stay away from similar names. However I could not locate information about use of word "Android" in domain names. Interested people can read Android's official guidelines for branding at http://pwo.pw/brandingguidelinesforandroid (shortened link without ads or affiliates)
