I'm using Firefox on a Samsung moto G6 with Android 9. When I open Firefox it displays a yellow page that says XML Parsing Error: no root element found. Location: chrome://geckoview/content/geckoview.xhtml line number 1, column 1.

I can't open any pages. I've tried restarting my device but I still get the message. What should I do?

I manage this website:

https://www.poderesantangelo.com/

On my desktop firefox displays the site without any problems, on my android mobile using firefox I see 'Error 521' with 'poderesantangelo.com Host Error'.

The same website displays without any problems if I access it using Chrome.

Do I need to contact my hosting provider as suggested by the same error message? Is this a bug in the latest version of firefox (which I am using)?

Thanks,

Graham Bradford

Dearest creators, Firefox for Android have a bothering issue. In any Android phone while listening directly from SoundCloud site not from app, while only in background the sound of the music is clipped and sometimes interrupted. I only use Firefox and also as a music player and it's perfect, but lately I have found that SoundCloud have problems with audio rendering while (in my case only) Firefox is in background. Also for this site cannot be applied any sound equalizer compared to any other YT or online radio. Please fix this issue... You're the best!

I use Firefox on Adnroid, which is synced to my Firefox on desktop. The logins and passwords are all there, correctly synced.

I also used to be, not but a month ago, that these passwords would also correctly autofill.

This autofill feature has been broken for me for two or three weeks. No icon, no suggestion, nothing.

Here's a list of people who have had the same issue in this very forum, going back August of 2020:

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1302596 https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1301401 https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1313507 https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1342917 https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1301994 https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1334514

Please let us know when we can throw a birthday party for this malfunction of a fundamental feature.

My phone is Nokia X100 with android 11. CPU is 480 5G UFS 2.1 storage Ram is 6gb I already did some tweaks in about:config but it is still slow to load webpages especially going from one site to another site. Any flags recommended? I know there is the option to reduce animations but they split into many animations flags I just don't know which are supposed to be able to speed up the speed by disabling them. Please share your view

Ever tried to download a file through firefox and then pause it to resume it after sometime and end up having the rest of the file being downloaded in an instant but upon opening realise the file has been corrupted. I am facing this issue like so frequently it has become like a norm that pausing a downloading file will give a corrupted one for sure. And please note that other browsers don't reproduce the issue infact the links are pause supported in all aspects

I have an old tablet with Android 5.1.1, 4GB of RAM and Intel 64bit Cherry Trail x5 CPU, that I use daily just to read news from BBC.com. After the latest automatic Firefox update by Google Play to 91.2.0, all the images in that site as well as other web sites, no loger are displayed by the browser. Everything else seems to be working fine.

I tried different things like clearing cache, disabling complements, etc... that did not worked. I know I can try to reinstall firefox, but before going that way, is there anything else that I can do ?.

I am thinking it might be an issue because the Android version that I am using (which I can not change), so as an alternative is there any way to download the previous Firefox version (which worked just fine) ?.

I have no idea what is happening... But after restarting, clearing my cache, making sure I have data and it is working for other apps... Still no results.

No matter what, whether I try to type in a URL, click on a link in the google app, or refresh a page I already have open, the app doesn't even attempt to load a page or throw up an error. Just a blank background, no loading bar, no error messages, and no redirects...

After I updated Firefox on Android to version 89, at random times it crashes when I open it and nothing works excepts reinstalling it (Android says it's crashing continuously and the only thing I see after is the crash reporter). Problem is that everytime it happens I lost my collections and settings (those seems not to be synced like bookmarks).

I suspect its related to sync, I currently have 3 devices in sync, a linux desktop, an android 5 phone and an android 9 phone (I consider it the main firefox for me). It started after updating both the phones and the desktop to 89.

I like to collect my tabs and delete my all tabs. Collection feature in Firefox let me collect tabs of my name choice, I really like this feature a lot but this feature has a bug

  • Suppose I made collection of 3-4 number of tabs as list 1.
  • Then i delete all the tabs
  • Now when I go to my collection list 1 and select the open tab option from list, the tab comes back but again when I select open tab second time it also bring back all the tabs which was not even in the collection, and it keeps on bringing all the tabs you ever made irrespective of the collection list, though they not add to my collection list but when I open tabs from collection list it brings all the tabs which was deleted and they (tabs) even come back after clearing the browsing history also.

Please fix this problem, the solution which i recommend is

1. Collection of tabs should be separate form other browsing activity it should be like a copy which I can curate accordingly. 2. Collection list should not delete even after clearing the browsing history only by manually delete the collection list does so. 3. Give is the option of select all option for selecting tabs its very hard to select tabs one by one and then group them into my collection

Please fix this problem it's very annoying i have used collection feature in safari try to take hints from them.
