While you have Android 2.2.1, it is the cpu that it uses that makes it not compatible.

Whether it is the LG Optimus (GT540) or LG Optimus One, it uses a older ARMv6 type of cpu and not a ARMv7.

https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Platforms/Android hese devices have ARMv6 processors and are not compatible with Firefox for Android: LG Optimus, Optimus M, Optimus T, Optimus S, Optimus V


If you had a newer Optimus model like the LG Optimus Black or LG Optimus 2X or LG Optimus 3D or Optimus Z for example then mobile Firefox would work on it.
