Firefox til Android supportforum

Hi,

I am unable to click on WhatsApp group links and join then through firefox browser on Android.

I am able to join through all other browsers like Chrome, Samsung internet etc but not through firefox.

Please fix this as fast as possible

I have a php / javascript based web-application that is running since years very well.

On some pages I am using geolocation, mainly on Android-smartphones.

Since some weeks only in Firefox (Standard, Beta and Nightly) the geolocation is very slow or I get a timeout. The timeout-option is set to 60 sec.

The application has no problems on Chrome, Opera, DuckDuckGo or the MI-Browser from Xiaomi, so I am sure that will be a bug in Firefox 107.2.0 for Android and not in my Application.

Additional Informations:

My location: Darmstadt / Germany.

The issue is tested on 2 android smartphones and a PC.

The geolocation on the pc is normal fast, less than 5 seconds.

Cannot take screenshot of problem (pop up ms from Amazon via Firefox) . . as soon as I pick up the phone or attempt any action whatsoever, the message box disappears. And since I have a fingerprint access option on, the moment my finger touches the screen for full access there is no record of the message for screen capture. Also, if I do nothing, the screen goes black (normal, with time/date etc visible) within a few seconds after the message appears . . though it is waiting for me to touch the screen at which time it reappears again for a few seconds. So it is pick up the phone . . trigger motion detection . . message box appears . . wait a couple of seconds . . black screen . . touch or pick up the phone . . message box . . black screen etc. I can of course do the fingerprint scan and have full phone features, but the preliminary nag "box message" all the time bugs the hell out of me. In the text of my "complaint" I quoted what the message says, it is not from Firefox but does have a tiny Firefox logo upper left. The small rectangular window also has a left/right "full return" arrow (grayed out each one) with a black "pause" button in between the two arrows, and it is not grayed out. However nothing happens if I touch it. In very small print under the main text (first few words of my Amazon review) is a link to the Amazon page where I posted a review of a product. The message itself that I refer to is NOT from Firefox, but is comprised of the first few words of my review headline (not all of it but most) on the Amazon product comment review page. So even though the "content" of the unwanted message is from Amazon, the Firefox logo nevertheless appears (very tiny) in the upper left of the rectangular window, so it appears to be a composite error interaction between Firefox and Amazon. How to tell Firefox to stop posting it? Or how to tell Amazon that their software is somehow involved? I haven't a clue . . ! This is a re-written complaint . . the original one resulted in an email request from "Seburo" who asked for a screenshot, but did not provide a return email address that functioned. So I am posting here a second time, thanks.

I did a test on quic.nginx.org without Warp+ and the result is "Congratulations! You're connected over QUIC.", but when using Warp+ it doesn't support QUIC.

Why do I keep getting a server error message when trying to access a link?

Hi,

When using Firefox recently I've noticed my android 12 phone (running on LineageOS 19) is getting noticeably hot within a short period of time of launching Firefox. Additionally I notice a battery drain of roughly 20% in a time span of 20 minutes.

By estimate this started happening about 2 updates ago as of the time of writing this.

I'm using a OnePlus 6T and have root acces, not an expert user. Though I do know my way around software and hardware. Feel free to ask or send short instructions on how to help you guys solve this performance bug.

If you guys need a log or any other information please tell me and I'd be happy to help.

Best regards, Vincent

Hello. I have been having this problem for a while now. When I enter an address in an existing tab with a :port number at the end of the website address and press the RETURN key the browser does nothing. You can see this issue in the video below. Video will expire on 12th september 2022 https://files.fm/f/xm2mxb829 Only way for me to enter an address with a port is to use an older website link from history or send tab from my desktop through ff sync.

Is there something wrong with my device or is it the browser. Im using firefox for android 102.2.0 on android 10
