As of yesterday (1st Nov 2023), Firefox started reporting "Proxy Server Refused Connection" when trying to browse websites over Wifi.

I have a proxy server configured in my phone wifi settings, and this has worked before, and still works in other apps (Chrome, etc)

Checking with tcpdump on the proxy server itself, I see my phone trying to connect to port 80, rather than the configured port (8000)

Firefox version: 119.0.1 Phone: Samsung Galaxy S22 Android version: 13

Hello Mozilla Support Team,

I hope you are doing well. I am writing to seek assistance with a compatibility issue I am experiencing with the Mozilla Firefox browser. Specifically, I am encountering problems with my website, "Les Horaires de Prière en France" (https://leshorairepriere.fr/), which provides prayer times in France

Here are the details of the issue:

Problem Description: When I try to access my website using Mozilla Firefox, I encounter certain problems such as slow loading times, layout distortion, or missing functionalities. This issue does not occur on other web browsers, and the website works perfectly fine on them. I would like to ensure that my website is compatible with Mozilla Firefox for a seamless user experience.

Mozilla Firefox Version: Could you please confirm whether my website is compatible with the latest version of Mozilla Firefox? I am currently using Mozilla Firefox version [Insert Your Firefox Version Here] to replicate the issue.

Specific Errors or Glitches: Please let me know if there are any specific error messages, glitches, or warnings that I should be aware of when accessing my website on Mozilla Firefox. This information would be crucial in diagnosing and resolving the issue.

Steps to Reproduce: Could you guide me through the steps to reproduce the issue on Mozilla Firefox? It would be helpful to have a detailed process to understand the problem better and work towards a solution.

Screenshots or Video Recording: If necessary, I can provide screenshots or video recordings of the issues I am encountering on Mozilla Firefox. Please let me know if this would assist in troubleshooting.

Recommendations and Fixes: I would greatly appreciate your guidance on how to make my website compatible with Mozilla Firefox or any necessary changes that need to be implemented on my end. It is essential for me to ensure that my users can access the prayer times information without any hindrance on this popular web browser.

Browser Compatibility Testing: If you have the capability to test my website on Mozilla Firefox, I would appreciate it. Please let me know the results of your testing and any specific observations or recommendations.

Thank you for your time and assistance in resolving this compatibility issue. I look forward to your guidance and support to ensure a seamless experience for all users visiting my prayer times website on Mozilla Firefox.

Best regards, Ahamd Ezat

Shortcuts Won't Open

I have used Firefox since late 2004, and nothing else. No problems until now.


Android 14 and Firefox mobile I think version 123.


It is updated. When I'm on a website, like USPS and accessesed Informed Delivery, I tell Firefox to Add To Home screen so I can quickly access mail and packages coming today.


Has always worked fine. Now, none of my manufacturered/created Firefox shortcuts will do anything. I cleared the Firefox cache, and forced stopped. I don't know if cleaning the data or reinstalling the whole app will help.


I then deleted data and uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox, but nothing changed.


I tried earlier versions but got a notification off it wasn't compatible with my version on Android.


I'm recovering from a stroke and these lost shortcuts stored on my homescreen were vital to communicating with my doctors, therapists, outpatient rehab, hospitals, etc. I'm lost without them.


Any suggestions or reasons for this are appreciated. Thank you

My google account has informed me that some of my information has been found in data breaches on the dark web. This included a list of information found. Where a password has been compromised, the list gives the 1st 3 characters of the password followed by ******. No website information is given. My query ..... Is there a way of searching my passwords held in Firefox to find this password so that I can change it? Firefox stores my passwords, how do I find a particular password without knowing the website it is associated with?

Firefox randomly switches to dark mode (Fennec for Android)

  1. Sometimes I use the browser while the system is in dark mode.
  2. Then I switch system to light mode. FF recognizes it and switches to light mode accordingly.
  3. Then I use it in light mode for a little more.
  4. Then some time passes (maybe a few hours), I don't use FF during that time.
  5. Then, I tap on FF icon, the browser starts, but immediately switches back to dark mode, while the system is still in light mode.
  6. I have to close FF by swiping on it in task switcher, and then tap on the app again.
  7. FF now uses light/dark theme according to system.

Device: Motorola Edge 30 Neo with stock Android 14.

I am using Fennec: 124.1.0 (Build #1241020), 516df33ca9+ GV: 124.0.1-20240326023132 AS: 124.0

For many weeks now whenever I go online, I have used Firefox for years and years, from my home page at Google to every website I search the language comes in as Danish. I speak and read only English. Regardless what I have researched, changed, updated, and un-installed the language starts as Danish and forces me to translate to English. Thus is ridiculous! Never have I had this problem until recently and I truly do not appreciate the extra time I must take to translate or perform the functions listed above which lists waste my time and makes me really think about my years of using Firefox. Why is this? Why does it not stay fixed? What does Firefox need to do to correct thus permanently? Why should I remain a customer if Firefox can't or won't fix this problem?

The power draw can be heinous. In 37 minutes of use so far for this full charging cycle, it has used 5 times the power (measured by Android's battery page) as RedReader has in its roughly 2.5 hours. Is there a way that can be brought to heel a bit?
