The latest version (134.0) suffers from glitchy/choppy audio while using Bluetooth to listen to YouTube (does not happen without Bluetooth). I can say for a fact that this is an issue with the version, because manually downgrading to 133.0 solved the problem immediately! I think this is quit a major issue for many users and needs addressing promptly (As of now my fix is simply to stick to the older 133.0, which is a shame...) Thanks!

Google is the only search engine I've selected for my Firefox Android browser. Often in the last month or so – after I type a search term into the omnibox at the top of my Firefox browser page – a "bing.com" results page opens. In fact, after I tried the words 'bing hijack' in this Mozilla Help page's own dedicated search box (NOT the browser's omnibox) another 'bing.com' page opened with search results This has happened in two different mobile devices that are synced to the same Firefox account. I do use the uBlock extension so I added the bing URL to the "My Filters" list, and my browser is always set for 'Strict' tracking protection. Is there any way to defeat this nonsense?

How in Android to Block/Disable "Stripping"?

I've read that the incidence of a web page removing basic browser elements like the address box and ellipsis menu from the UI is called 'stripping.' I'm not sure if that term is accurate, but the phenomenon I just described is occurring more often on my Firefox Android browser. The obvious navigational disadvantages of that arrangement are joined by an inability to save page-specific shortcuts to my phone's screen. The query 'stripping' in this Help Community's search box provided no useful results, so I'm asking here if there's anything I can do in my settings (or by any other means) to block websites from forcing that behavior upon my Android browser?

Since the last update from Firefox on my phone when I play videos and use my ear buds a cracking sound can be heard when people speak in the videos. This doesn't happen when I play videos through other apps like VLC.

I tested with YouTube in the browser and different websites, they all have the cracking sound.

Is this a known issue?

The latest update of firefox 135.0 for Android has audio issues. When I listen to music on bandcamp or you tube the audio makes a crackeling sound with sporadic drop outs. My wi fi is a very stable fiber optic provider, I did restet the router and run speed test to double check. Not a problem with my Bluetooth headphones since I re paired them. I also re installed Firefox to no avail. Samsung internet has no audio issues currently. I turned off u block origin also. It seems to be isolated to firefox version 135.0. My system is Android 14 with ui 6.1 on a Samsung a23 5g. I have seen other users complain about this with no real answer. Spent a good part of the day trying to figure it out.

8 Feb 2025. Using samsung galaxy z flip 5, audiotechnica mth20x bt over bluetooth. Firefox mobile. Audio played from firefox app has gone wonky, hearing popping noises while audio plays. Have isolated this issue to Firefox, on other apps audio does not have decreased fidelity. Other devices also do not pose this same issue. Any idea why?
