Firefox na Android Community Forum

When I click on YouTube comments to read them Firefox mobile pops up a blank window. Works fine if I switch to desktop mode. Android Version 16. Tried reinstalling Firefox. Cleared cache and cookies. Nothing so far has worked.

Hi!

I have some problems with Firefox on Android.

I often visit the Swedish public service news site "www.svt.se/nyheter".

Sometimes some videos won't play, but if I open the same page in Chrome, playback starts as it should. One example is the video in this article:

https://www.svt.se/nyheter/lokalt/smaland/over-400-kvadratmeter-parkslide-ska-bort-vaxjo-testar-ny-metod

A general problem is that I almost always have to reload the tab, to be able to watch the video, when I open an article in a new tab. The first time I press play, the video freezes. The sound plays but the image becomes static and pixelated, often in shades of green. One example is this article:

https://www.svt.se/nyheter/lokalt/stockholm/uppgifter-sjukdomsfall-bakom-bussolyckan-i-stockholm

I have a Google Pixel 5 with Android 14 and Firefox version 145.0 (but the problem has existed in previous versions).

Thanks in advance!

I have a few web pages on my local network that are behind basic HTTP authentication. If I try to navigate to any of these sites in Firefox for Android, I get the popup to enter my credentials, but after entering my credentials, the page just never loads. The loading indicator just stays in place.

I do get a 401 unauthorized if I don't enter correct credentials, but with the correct credentials entered the page juat never loads.

I've tried clearing site data, disabling extensions, and disabling protection features like tracking protection and dns protection, but none of that resolves the issue.

I also tried Firefox Foxus to see if my particular installation is borked somehow, but Firefox Focus has the same issue.

A different mobile browser though, such as Brave, loads the page just fine after my credentials are entered. Works just fine in Firefox desktop as well.

Is basic HTTP authentication just broken in Firefox for Android? Are there any other workarounds I can try?

so whenever I try logging into PlayStation using Firefox, it gives me some kind of server error. But when I try logging in with chrome for example everything's fine. (Android)
