Firefox for Andoird crashes every time tab listing opened. If I do "about:crashes" i see the attached list of crashes ...

"java.lang.IllegalArgumentException..."

Version is 130.0 (Build 2016041319)

I tried clearing cache but it didn't help.

All of a sudden my Firefox app is crashing. It will show the home screen fine but other than that, it crashes. It worked only an hour ago! I even deleted it and then redownloaded it via the App Store. It still crashes!

How can this be fixed? Or must I leave Firefox for good?

Hello, I've been having issues with the Firefox app on my Android ever since the most recent update on 4th of July. Whenever I tap the "tabs" button, the tabs viewer opens as always, but if I try to scroll and browse the tab, or if I try to close any of the visible tabs, the whole app crashes. Because of that, I can only switch between tabs by swiping, but it can be annoying if you're used to using many tabs like myself. I have cleared my cache multiple times and it didn't help. I am not too tech-savvy but is there any way to fix it? Thank you!

When I try to open firefox on my android phone, it just closes and gives me an error message which I have attached a screen shot of.

I do not know if this is related but this happened after I scanned a qr code and tried to open it.

I have un-installed and reinstalled the app and turned my phone off then on again after reinstalling but this did not help.

Pls can you help?

I keep getting the attached message when I sign into my bank. This just started yesterday (9/4/24), but when I sign in with another browser I don't have a problem?

When using Firefox on Android for a while, attempting to use pinch to zoom on a web site will cause Android to crash, as in the screen will go black, the G logo animation will appear, and I'll be sent back to the lock screen. It's not just the app that crashes. It doesn't seem to be a full reboot as that takes longer and starts with a different animation, but some part of Android is restarting.

It's consistent but not predictable. Pinch to zoom will work on one site fine and then crash on the same site later. It seems to be a resource issue as it's unlikely to happen on a fresh instance and it becomes more likely the longer you've been using Firefox.

This has been happening for several months, since at least July. It's happened both on my old Pixel 6 Pro and my new Pixel 9 Pro. It's happened on both Android 14 and 15.

I eventually found out I could go to Settings > About Firefox > Crashes and get some debugging info, but I don't know what to do with it. I currently have 15 crashes between now and Oct 16th which all say:

java.lang.RuntimeException: Adding window failed

Clicking Share to get more info on the latest one adds:

I don't know what to do with this info. Should I file a Bugzilla report with just this? The GUID associated with the most recent one is 7a5e5497-bb62-4e3c-94fc-5c63c51d0830. I can't look it up in crash-stats.mozilla.org. Or should I assume all crash reports are automatically received? I'd still like to be able to have a Bugzilla bug to watch for progress.
