Firefox for Android Support Forum

Hi

So I downloaded Firefox browser to my android phone for the first time today and sadly a majority of videos don't play in 1080p even with the add-on HD YouTube,, what I'm i missing here? I even went to the HD YouTube add on and selected 1080p but still no success.. thanks in advance

HI all. Was hoping to find/enable "go to website" feature while taking screenshots in firefox. For those who are not familiar when you take a screenshot while being on the web page you usually have little "go to website link" while viewing your screenshot and if you click on the link/ icon your screenshot will take you directly to the website this screen was taken at. Recently got s 21 / t-mobile. This feature is present on all other browsers like stock samy browser and chrome but for the reason my go to firefox browser has that feature not displayed on the screenshots. Attaching pics of the feature below.Please advise if you know what could cause that and how to enable "go to website" feature on screenshots?

I have to use the reload button often, because pages will often show outdated cached versions. How can I get the reload button back on the main toolbar, so I can reach it with one click?

NOTE: Existing solutions provided in the forums which were based on about:config usage have been effectively thwarted. Please provide suggestions which work for the Release version. (Yes, it makes life more difficult)

I use advanced tracking protection in Firefox android version specifically, Firefox 86 version came with full cookie protection, does this protection work in special option?

Hello, on Firefox Desktop you can create custom password fields, putting the manual website, username and password; I use this possibility to store personal data, like pins and other codes. Why on Android there isn't the possibility? I see there is on Lockwise, but password stored there remain on Lockwise, they aren't synced with Firefox ecosystem, adding that I find Lockwise useless, as it never syncs new Firefox passwords, losing its primary use. Thank you, waiting for your answers.

The amount of time I have spent trying to get firefox to accept my CA, I could've used to make my own browser.

1. Downloading the pem version with firefox is a myth. (tested with v85 & v86beta) 2. Security-enterprise-roots-enabled is a windows thing, NOT android (tested with v86beta). 3. Decoding the APK reveals that firefox does not even have this: <certificates src="user"/> 4. The builtin certificates are hardcoded into native library, and replacing one with mine does not work (suspected cert pinning) 5. The button "Accept the Risk and Continue" is the last straw it does not work.

Does firefox really support custom Root Certificates on Android? if so how?

Hello, I can't find a source code of firefox 68 mobile (android), I have searched github and ftp, but I couldn't find source code. Where I can downlaod it? Thanks for advance.

Hello,

How can I import a root CA certificate to Firefox for Android? I tried uploading the certificate to a webserver and navigating to it with Firefox for Android, but it does not work, either it downloads the file or display its PEM text content, no import prompt.

I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 ( SM-T505), new 2020 with Android 10.

This is as follows ( N.B this is quite annoying/frustrating):

1. If I choose other language than the factory recomended in wich country you bought the device in. For an ex If you are asked to choose Swedish ( for tablet bought in Sweden), but If you choose English either UK or US the device thinks that you are in either UK or US. According to the search results wich will guides you to sites from this countries.

2. That If you choose other language than the factory recomended,and add multiple languages Firefox gets nuts. Besides that Firefox constantly crashes( will get back to startmenu), closes down tabs. But whats most annoying ( bug or lack of compatiblility) is that the device constantly will aut change my input language to the next upcoming in the list. As I would describe it that the layout ( input language) will be changed to for an ex English layout insted of Swedish. But at the same time If I will delete all of the existig input languages,and just keep my native keyboard layout it works fine.

3. That many sites constantly crashes,and that I can't add myself to many social media sites( not such as FB,Twitter. Since I don't have any account at this platforms). I will also get error messages when a site has capture codes. Wich will result that I can't add myself there. 4. If I ask for Desktop version Firefox thinks that I'm using Linux. Note that all sites will work fine,but better than the standard mobile ver. 5. That Firefox at many Tablets from Samsung ( but since I only have exp with Samsung devices) have poor compatiblity to many webmail services. I myself know that protonmail works badly. Since non of the functions that I have at a regular Pc works. It's both when I will open an existing mail, but at the same time when I will add a new mail it's where my issues are most. What will hapend is that nearly the whole screen will be covered with the keyboard,and that neither of the basic functions ( such as formating text) will work.

5. I' ve also noticed that the keyboard have a bad respons, and that the device interpetate my sweep gesters over the screen that I will flip scren mode ( to a vertical instead of horisontal mode). But at the same time if I lock my screen to a horisontal mode it works better.

6. As an average Firefox ( to my device) have a bad compatiblity to many sites. But at the same time Firefox for a regular PC( either Win 7,8,10) works better.

7. That Firefox installed at my device have non of the other functions that I have for my regular Pc is compatible( that I can change functions such as cookies etc)

8. Every time when I update to a newer ver firefox aut deletes all of my bookmarks ( saved online websites). Why isn't it possibel to have an option to save them ( manualy delete),or save them to a memorycard or different folder.

9. Why isn't it possibel as it was in previous ver to just download a specific lang ver. For an ex English (UK or US). Since I know that the most stabel versions are English ( in particular UK). My point is that why should Firefox follow the device set language. For myself I'm more used to english computer softwares rather than Swedish. Why isn't is possible to have an option to an advanced ( custom install).

I know how I can enable camera access for FireFox on Android.

So via Android settings I can find FireFox app and then allow camera access.

Also in FireFox browser I can go to settings and then set camera to ask for permission.

This is however not enough. If I enable camera I will still be unable to use the camera.

So the question is still open: how can I use the camera when using FireFox on Android. Is there a way this can be done? Or is this unsupported?

Password managers (specifically LastPass) do not work with the newest version of Firefox on Android. LastPass support confirmed the problem was with the new Firefox version.

I would like this to be fixed. I really need to be able to use autofill.

Αγαπητή Mozilla,ο νέος Firefox είναι πολύ καλός! Σας παρακαλώ θα ήθελα αυτές τις δύο δυνατότητες στον Firefox γιατί θα με βοηθούσαν όταν βρίσκομαι στο ίντερνετ.Σας ευχαριστώ εκ των προτέρων.

Hello,

This problem exists for quite some time now. Sometimes when I download a PDF file, i cannot open it in Adobe acrobat via Firefox download "open". When i tap on "open" Firefox says there is no PDF viewer installed or it cant open the file. Although the viewer is installed and sometimes it works as it should. But some PDF files cant be opened. When I access them through my file manager i can open them without any problem.

Firefox Daylight on an up to date Samsung S10e. But same problem on Xiaomi Mi9 SE or Galaxy Tab S6 lite.

Is there any way to set Firefox to delete cookies on quit except those from certain sites? There are a few sites whose cookies I need to keep, but as far as I can tell it's all or nothing. I'm using version 81.1.1. Thanks! -- oobleck
