Per http://mzl.la/1BsPDaX about Firefox for Android, "Some of the search engines introduced here are regionally bound".

I'd rather leave them to whatever is their default. Worst offenders are Wikipedia (pt) and Reddit, which translates every single result! Both of these seriously affect the usefulness lf the results I get (after all, tbe internet is written in English).

Right now, I simply changed the app's language to English, but that is not an ideal solution.

Is there anyway to bypass this behavior?

For some reason, for like, 19 out of 20 times I try, I cannot google search anything on the Android firefox app. I type in the query. I hit search. It loads for a long time. And I am met with "server error".

No other apps seem to have trouble connecting. No other websites on the same browser and phone has these problems. I can kind if get by as long as I know the url. But as soon as I try to find anything where I don't know the url. I get the same Server Error. It's been going on for weeks. I've disabled all extensions and uninstalled them. I've been on multiple networks both at home and work and mobile networks. I have reinstalled firefox. I have tonight even cleared both cache and data. Other devices on the same network and browser can google just fine. Nothing I can think of has made a difference.

I google. I get server error.

Anyone hasany ideas I can try out? I am certain some kind of user error is involved. It usually is. But I am at a loss of what it could be.

How do I rename downloads? I've been unable to renames files, images, videos, etc. and they're named after what happens when someone rolls their face on the face keyboard.

Is there a way to do that within the Android mobile browser? Thank you.

Firefox Mobile reloads tabs automatically

Since I am on my new Phone (Xiaomi Poco F6, Hyper OS 1.0.4.0, Android 14.UKQ1.240116.001), I have this weird thing with Firefox that when I minimize it and then come back a few seconds later, it will automatically reload the tab I was on. Which is extremely annoying because, for example, I was on the Paypal page and was getting my login code from messages, then when I got back on the Paypal page it reloaded and I could not insert the code, but had to click on 'send code' again (and again and again). I saw this issue appear multiple times apparently already on reddit and co. But nowhere I could find an answer to it. Someone? I looked in the battery saver settings and in firefox settings etc, but I can't find anything that makes tabs reload automatically and it makes no sense that anything would clear the cache every time I minimize firefox, no?

1. The homepage backgrounds need updating, I should be able to add manual wallpaper from my phone. 2. The bookmarks on homepage are in a sliding manner which requires one extra step to open prefered bookmark from home page specially when I have several bookmarks. They should be more accessible as in the form of already expanded tiles rather than just a show all button. 3. The bookmarks if removed from homepage once, can't be placed there again even though they appear inside the bookmark tab. There should be an option to add bookmarks to homepage. 4. Please bring amoled theme for firefox.
