Firefox for Android Community Forum

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

When expanding the comments in an arstechica.com article with Firefox settings/accessibility/automatic font sizing switched on, frequently the font used is very large. A page refresh usually fixes the problem and the font return to the expected size.

I have also seen the same problem at www.theguardian.com.

I do not see this problem if automatic font sizing switched off.

I've attached 2 screenshots. In the example with the larger font, I had scrolled to the bottom of the article and clicked on the comments button to open the comments, then took the screenshot. Then I refreshed the page and took another screenshot.

Is this a known problem?

This happened to me multiple times, and although it doesn't happen every time when it does I have no idea what lead to it except this happens on websites with a lot of images such as web comics or even something like YT with its thumbnails.

Suddenly, the scrolling feels very choppy and laggy, as if it was running at a much lower frame rate. I can tell the difference easily as I use a phone with a screen with 120hz refresh rate.

I managed to fix it last time by going through the settings, and toggling on and off everything I could. And I have no idea what exactly fixed it.

Turning off all the add ons does nothing.

So my problem is that User. Interface seems to not work when I go to a Website the UI Doesn't work also the texts have some kind of White texture And it's just annoying and I've been using Google Since And to some websites The screen Just goes White

I'm using my android tablet to access the Microsoft website. When I click on the link to the desired page, the page flashes for a second and then goes blank. What's wrong, and how do I fix it?

The browser itself works in 120 Hz, but if you open any page, the phone switches to 60 hz. However, if you open, for example, the keyboard, 120 Hz is enabled again. This makes using Firefox uncomfortable. I have attached screenshots that show my problem.

Fonts on Google show outlines where they're not supposed to. This is happening as shown in the attached picture in the word 'Firefox' and the word 'Change'.

Only extensions I am using are Dark Reader and uBlock Origin, both of which I uninstall completely to test without any difference.

Problem persists in both dark and light mode. And is not present in Google Chrome ot other applications.

This is on Android 14, Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, One UI 6.1. Firefox 132.0 (Build #2016051567).

I've had the zoom disable for a while on firefox beta for a while but now the about a week ago the pages have shrank and elemant of the pages are missed aligned. is there a work around or will I have to wait till its fixed?

Hi all,

I recently got a Tab P11 Pro (2nd Gen) (8GB 256GB). I believe with the following specs:

• MediaTek Kompanio 1300T (8C, 4x A78 @2.6GHz + 4x A55 @2.0GHz)
• Integrated ARM Mali-G77 MC9 GPU

However, I'm getting 'hardware acceleration' errors with roll20, the roleplaying site, in Firefox.

If I try to launch a game in Firefox, roll20.net gives such error, and the site is not rendered at all.

I then tried Firefox Beta. Better, but I get an error that hardware acceleration is not enabled. The menu in the game is then rendered incorrectly.

On Chrome, the site is rendered, but the menu is way off to the right, similar to Firefox Beta.

Is there a setting in one of the flavours of Firefox on Android which I can turn on to activate hardware acceleration? I would have thought the tablet is powerful enough to use that. If anyone has any ideas what is going on, would appreciate it,

P.

This has happened to me for days now. Firefox keeps hiding a portion of the page, and I have to zoom to see the parts that are hidden. Can someone help me with this error? (tor). Disabled all extensions, cleared cache and data as well.

On my S24 when I use Firefox the screen starts flickering and it's impossible to navigate. Only fix is to restart the phone. Online there are lot of users of the S24 series that complaints about this issue. Can you please provide a fix? Or I will have to find an alternative for Firefox

I cant use firefox regular or focus due to dropped text and missing images. It happens on all websites and on two different phones. This doesnt happen with Brave but i absolutely hate their ads. It has become worse over time. Attached is a screenshot of weather.gov, which never loads correctly. You can see- oh shit, its happening here- icant see what im typing!

Hi I'm having trouble seeing facebook posts reply comments. Some of the first level reply comments show up but not all. Any level of reply above first level will not show. If I turn on desktop site in settings all comments show up. Is this a bug?

Recently I noticed that occasoinally if I try to load a new page on a new tab it will not render. Sometimes it helps if I close it from the recent apps and reload Firefox. Last ti.e it didn't helped. This time what was interesting I tried to switch to a not yet loaded page, it was also black. Than I switched to a page with a preloaded preview it flickered for a bit and than the issue resolved itself. The affected device is a newly installed s24 with exynos s2400 so I'm not sure if it's a driver issue or is it a firefox bug. I didn't notice any similar with other apps.

Hi,

I've been using firefox for 20 years and never experienced problems with webpage display until I started using it on my new phone samsung s23 ultra.

More often some webpages will not size correctly with my screen and is cut off so I have to switch to chrome.

For example, only 80% of this webpage is displayed. https://www.unsw.edu.au/newsroom/news/2024/04/pfas-forever-chemicals-above-drinking-water-guidelines-in-global-source-water

Is this a bug?

Thanks.

Using firefox's version of Facebook, when viewing a comment on a post I've made, the comment is cut off at the bottom. It seems like that particular page is not being formatted correctly. I cannot scroll up anymore to reveal it. See the attached image.

After I log in to Linked in I can not use profile or network pages, as it looks like some kind of semitransparent overlay is displayed above them, preventing me from interaction with the page. In the same time home feed is working fine. I tried disabling all extensions but no luck.

About half a year ago, there was a problem with parts of webpages being blocked out by rectangles in background colour on some Android devices. As I understand it, that was a problem with hardware optimization on Adreno 308 GPUs, as my phone has. The problem was fixed in 116.

Now, in 121 (and possibly earlier), the problem is back on my phone with this GPU.

E. g. on https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/ForgottenTrope, there is a white block in the second paragraph, hiding a part starting with the second half of the second line and two lines more. The text becomes visible line by line when I zoom in.

I found an entry in bugzilla, https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1843749, which seems to pertain to the problem. It was closed with the fix in 116. I guess it needs to be reopened, or a new one referencing this one?

What can I do to set the wheels in motion so the problem will be solved once again?

Hie, I am using firebase push notifications to show background notification on mobile. The issue is when I click on the notification instead of redirecting to the link it just opens up the blank page or the previously opened page. While the other browsers work perfectly for the given scenario firefox for mobile doesn't. Kindly help
