Firefox for Android Community Forum

On 28 September 2023 It started to "show proxy server refused connection" when i was browsing google pages. I've tried chrome it seems to be working just fine. Regarding the Mozilla I've tried everything, reinstalling several times, restarting the phone, reading on the net for similar problems and i failed to find solution. On 2 October 2023 I've tried again to install Mozilla it seams to work just fine. My question is what happened?

When using Paypal I keep getting warnings from Firefox that it is an unsafe site. What steps can I take to make Paypal safe and stop getting the warnings? I've looked in the settings area but can't find what might relate to making a site safe.

I use Firefox nightly and about a month ago using mobile data completely broke. Everytime with every site it says "Connection timed out". Every single other application and browser works on my phone with mobile data but not Firefox. I've tried reinstalling Nightly and installing the regular version but the issue persists. I do use a tracker blocking application but I have Firefox completely whitelisted in it and it's been working fine before.

Hello there,

Unable to open websites through Android phone. While trying to open or browse got message that THIS WEBSITE REQUIRES A SECURE CONNECTION. What to do to solve this issue.

Kindly help

Really do Like Firefox/Mozilla; Appreciate the opportunity offered to apply an app to link to cell phone; However my Cell Phone does Not allow apps, No Internet Connection. Should I go to 'Settings' to opt-out for the app??

I recently logged into the WIFI of my TAFE, which uses a proxy, only to find that Firefox would not work. 1 hour of crazed searching later I have found that you pretty much *cannot use a proxy with Firefox on Android*.

Sure technically you can download the FoxyProxy add-on or go to about:config and change the settings there (but not on the stable build which y'know most people use) but the fact that the stock, stable install has *zero* support for proxies, which are extremely common on school/work networks, is absolutely unacceptable. This is *basic* functionality that was reported as missing as far back as 10 years ago and *nothing* has been done to fix this.

The worst part is Mozilla are clearly aware of this. An issue was opened on github and was only closed to be moved over to bugzilla where it remains open. And for some reason on bugzilla the severity is marked as N/A even though this literally means you cannot use Firefox Android on any network with a proxy

I apologize for the harsh and direct tone but I am truly astonished that no one seems to think that this is as severe as it actually is. I use Firefox because I love open source software and I hate the idea of google having a monopoly over browsers. Things like this where basic features are missing (resulting in the browser being completely unusable on certain networks) make me reconsider if this browser is even worth using. And please don't say that FoxyProxy solves all of this because the fact that basic functionality is locked behind a third party extension is unacceptable.

Ever since I downloaded Firefox 108.0.1 on Jan 16, I have been unable to access logibiztech.com. I get the message "SECURE CONNECTION FAILED ERROR CODE PR-CONNECT-RESET-ERROR"

This is driving me insane. On mobile data (3,4,5g) Firefox will not open any websites, it just sits with a white page until eventually I get "connection reset". Every other browser on the device works fine though, and Firefox can access sites when on WiFi.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled the main app *and* installed focus,beta and nightly versions,all have the same problems. Permissions on mobile data are allowed.

I cannot even get a sensible log or network trace out of the browser as there are no Dev tools.

It sometimes feels like Mozilla are trying their absolute hardest to lose users, I even had had the old "browser uses 12gb of memory for two tabs" problem on desktop the other week.

Just today all my bookmarks , every other site that I try, shows "address not found" and Also each site shows "Your connection is not secure".

I have only 1 add-on, UBlock Origin. Whether this is OFF or ON doesn't matter.

HTTPS-Only Mode : OFF or ON doesn't matter.

I've also re-installed Firefox Android, no change.

Thanks, Rod

PS: WiFi & Cell connection very good.

When ever i use my Mobile data to browse in website it always shows error or gets stuck in loading.Its happening feom long time i tried uninstalling and re-installing still does not works.
