Firefox til Android supportforum

Firefox doesn't play Youtube videos. When opening Youtube website, the loading progress bar stops at around 80% and the video keeps showing the loading circle when pressing 'play' button.

Seems like only the tabs that have been opened for a while are affected. When opening the same video in the new tab, the issue is gone.

When the app is force stopped and started again, the issue disappears and then appears again after some time.

Installed add-ons: uBlock Origin Privacy Badger Video Background Play Fix

The issue persists when all add-ons are disabled. Can be reproduced when using a mobile network without a VPN connection.

I haven't tried to reproduce the issue with all the add-ons initially disabled.

I've found similar issues, that are however not limited to Youtube: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1411513 https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1419131 https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1374967

This issue is focused on Youtube, so that hopefully it will be easier to debug.

Thank you for developing and contributing to Firefox for Android. It's a modern and competitive mobile browser. I appreciate your effort!

I get a blank white screen when I access https://www.google.com on Firefox for Android Started about 1 hour ago

Switch to a different connection - error still occurs Switch from Firefox to Firefox Focus - error still occurs Clearing cache and cookies - error still occurs

Going to https://one.google.com works Typing in the search bar and viewing the search results works Accessing all other URLs works

Accessing https://www.google.com on Chrome works

How do I resolve the issue?

This has happened to me for days now. Firefox keeps hiding a portion of the page, and I have to zoom to see the parts that are hidden. Can someone help me with this error? (tor). Disabled all extensions, cleared cache and data as well.

in this case, when I try to open ao3 from gmail links, the website just gets stuck loading (the lock symbol also has a slash across it). i try to open link in Firefox but same problem. (im on mobile btw)

i can access the same webpage just fine if i find it by searching manually in Firefox though

other website links work fine, and this problem only started maybe a few days ago

The google.com on Firefox on android is not working it displays a white screen each time I open Google.com

Version: FF Android 101.2.0 (plus other version stuff I can provide if needed), Android 12 Hi there,

I wanted to report an issue I've been experiencing on a popular news site, which seems to have been ongoing for several months now. I'm not sure if anyone else has been having this problem or if it's just me, but I thought it was worth bringing up.

The website in question is . https://alightmotion.net/

My expected behavior when browsing this site is to be able to open links and download files in the background while continuing to browse. However, I've noticed a few issues:

After opening a few tabs, Firefox for Android will hang for almost 30 seconds before doing a deep redraw/repaint of all tabs. It then functions normally until I try to open another background tab from the same website. During the hang, the tab interface continues to redraw, but the pages themselves do not repaint, and no tap events work. When the hang time ends, the pages appear to redraw from scratch, and the context pop-up for the third long-press appears on top of the tab I was looking at. This issue is 100% reproducible for me. Long-press fails when attempting to open the third background tab, but the repaint failure occurs earlier. There seems to be something toxic happening.

Interestingly, when I go back to my Android Home screen after experiencing this issue, there is a deep refresh/repaint, as if the phone has been swapped out or the garbage collector has run.

I have tried clearing all browsing data and using a guest account on my phone, but the issue persists. I don't have any add-ons installed, and neither Chrome nor Firefox Desktop exhibit this behavior. It seems to be specific to Firefox for Android.

Thank you for your help!

Firefox Beta for Android frequently loads webpages as a blank black or grey page. Reloading the tab does nothing - only closing it and reopening it allows the page to load as expected.

I'm a big fan of Firefox and have been using it as my main browser for years, but this issue happens so often that I'm considering moving over to Samsung Internet when on mobile.

P.S. I know it isn't an addon issue as this still happens when all extensions are disabled.

I'm using a Galaxy 21FE on Android 13. Tracking protection is set to default. HTTPS only mode is enabled.

Sometimes, when I type a search query or a page address and hit enter, nothing happens, the keyboard is closed and nothing more happens - a blank page - no loading or anything (the same applies when you try to type a page URL).

I use the latest Firefox (124) on Sony Xperia 5IV.

I could attach a video but unfortunately only images are supported.

Whilest using the Android Firefox app, suddenly all Videos except normal GIFs stopped playing and are instead eternally loading or showing a blank screen. This is the case for Youtube, Vimeo, Imgur and all other Platforms I found so far. By using the beta version of the app in the "about:config" menu I changed the setting "media.mediasource.vp9.enabled" to "true" which fixed it for Youtube, but other Videos on other sites are still not working. I also tried disabling all addons and doing a complete clean reinstall of the app, but this too had no effect.

Any ideas on how to fix are appreciated :) Thanks in advance

cannot display google.com website mobile version, need switch to desktop site mode at Firefox, I use Samsung note 20 ultra. please help to fix it. I could open that at yesterday.

Hello, i have a problem since yesterday afternoon, google.com always loads to a blank page as you can see in the screenshot bellow.

Fixes I tried: -Deleted cache within android app management. (Firefox cache) -Deleted cache within firefox

-reinstalled app.

I am unable to use Firefox on Android as no webpages load when I have Adguard enabled on my phone. Adguard is an ad block that works using a local VPN. It works well with all other Android browsers except Firefox. I hope there'll be some solution to this issue.

To sum it up, I have this issue where opening the app to the homepage and searching something or going to a website will result in the page taking up to 10-15 seconds to fully load. What is weird, though, is that it will not do this if I open another tab and search something. Same thing if I fully close the tab and leave the app, but I go right back into the app to search something, almost like this issue also doesn't happen if I had recently used the app. The second I don't use it for a while, though, the problem happens again. Is there a fix for this? I've tried force stopping the app, clearing the cache, and uninstalling/reinstalling, but it still happens. I checked my internet speed, and everything is fine on there. I also checked how fast other apps load, and they load normally. What is going on? This is very frustrating.
