Firefox for Android Community Forum

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.

When playing YouTube videos in full screen using

Firefox: the gear button and the "restore screen size/exit full screen" button are nonfunctional (nothing happens when I tap on them).

Google Chrome browser: the gear icon button is nonfunctional.

DuckDuckGo browser: the gear icon button is non functional.

Opera browser: the gear icon button is non functional.

This problem started about a week and a half ago.

When I play a video in firefox android, the sound does not play from my bluetooth devices, only from the phone speakers. If I play the same video from another browser, the sound is in my bluetooth devices. The bluetooth works perfectly with all other apps. Thx for your help !

Hi. I recently opened Firefox for Android on my Samsung A53 phone to find the keyboard layout had changed. Please see image attached. I do not wish to use this layout. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling but this had no effect. I have also cleared the cache and deleted all data. None of these things have solved the issue. I would be very grateful if you could advise me how to use the Samsung system default keyboard with Firefox. Many thanks.

Hey there. I placed a one star on Google Play for Firefox and you asked me to place a ticket so będę I am. I am a long time fan of Firefox so I would like to work with you in that topic.

Basically what is the issue is that Firefox refreshes pages everytime you close the browser. That means any payments ie for food delivery can't be made because when a page gonna get refresh it refreshes payment site. It also happens on ie YouTube and then the movie goes back to the previous cached moment/start of the video. A filled survey like this would be cleared and I would have to start from the scratch.Workaround is to use split app modes but it's painful

Im using Poco f3 with newest available Android and non rooted hyper os I tried already to turn off battery optimization but then again opera mobile(god damn!) does not have such issue even when battery optimalization is turned on.tried to use autostart option as well same issue.

Hello every time I get on a website it initially loads but when I try to do something else on it, it keeps saying...

 ERROR: SSL_ERROR_RX_RECORD_TOO_LONG

And I was wondering if you could help me fix it please. Thank you!

See above please ask someone human who speaks English to assist me with a reoccurring technical support problem. My phone number is [edited phone# from public community support forum] The new norm seems to be that I repeatedly have to type in whatever curiousity I have and before I can hit the send button everything I wrote is gone. This happens repeatedly

Hi

Firefox appears in a black window when selecting split screen. Also, when clicking on links in Gmail app, firefox (default browser) appears as a small square window in the top left corner of the screen. The system and firefox app are both up to date. All other browsers are working fine.

Firefox 129.0 Samsung tablet.

Reading the Guardian via browser and the page freezes at least twice in one session. Have cleared cache.

What works is closing and reopening.

Thank you.

Why have you allowed google to overtake this search engine browser!!! They are lying about, hiding and obfuscating almost everything! I chose this search engine to get away from their garbage!!!

Hi,

I have a custom site on my ISP's webspace that can be access via an https:// link. Firefox for Android (129.0.2) on my new phone (Samsung a35, Android 14) says that it's not secure, which means I frequently have to go though the not secure>advanced>accept risk process.

The problem is that this is literally the only browser instance I have that thinks it isn't secure. Chrome, on the same device, says it is, Firefox for Android thinks it is on two other devices. Firefox for Windows thinks it is. I can find no other browser on any device or platform that thinks there is any problem.

Any hep appreciated.

I'm using a Samsung 9s ultra tablet. I have an order form from my company downloaded on Firefox. I have been using this form on my tablet for a year now. All of the sudden one of the fields quit working. The column with the totals (This column adds the totals) will not let me type in a number. It will let me type in other charaters, no numbers. I tried to reset and reinstall. I downloaded the form several times. This order form still works fine on my laptop. Do you have any suggestions? Thank you

There is a behavior change for my android installation.

When presented with a login/password web page, I no longer get type-ahead/autofill select option, instead I now only get a key symbol and passwords string.

When I started typing my username, I use to get a marquee with history of matching strings that I could select from, now its just a password/key button

logins and passwords -> autofill is disabled, save logins is "never save"

autofill is enabled.

I'm not particularly looking to autofill, just get back the type-ahead selections and get rid of the password button that replaced it, so I don't have to type my entire username everytime.

Any suggestions?

Using android Firefox I have no clue but I have been experiencing this weird lag for a long time now I always have used Firefox for along time and plan on to continue unless this problem re occurs too much.

Is there a reason why this is happening?

Sometimes there is like a 10-30 seconds lag spike for me to even use my keyboard?

Keep in mind I'm using android 13
