Firefox for Android Community Forum

How do I delete/remove/disable/kill the search engine icon on the left side of the address bar in Firefox Nightly on Android? The about:config toggle browser.urlbar.scotchBonnet.enableOverride in the desktop version doesn't exist as an option in the Android version.

Nobody asked for a search engine icon in the address bar and nobody wants it. It's already irritating enough that searching from the address bar instead of loading a search engine URL like an adult is a ~~feature~~ that can't be turned off, and I don't need a crapulous little icon reminding me of that on a mobile device.

Hi, I have problems when using Firefox Android with my Samsung 24 Pro. This doesn't happen with my other phone, that is a One Plus, nor in Chrome browser.

1) I start using Firefox 2) I search something with the bar (google engine) 3) I press the bar to change my search 4) Press to remove a character with the delete

If I searched with more than one word word, it deletes the space in between, eg. "hello how are you" transforms into "hello how areyou". Spected behaviour "hello how are yo". If its only one word a random letter is deleted. Sometimes it deletes a complete word.

If, for example, instead of pressing delete, I touch again the bar in step 4) no bug ocurrs.

Hope someone can help me Best Regards Andrés

No, I CANNOT delete Google as a search engine if I simply set another search engine as default. I DID that and the option to delete Google is still blacked out. Try again.

Hello, how to make www.yandex.ru Searching machine by default?

Здравствуйте, как сделать Яндекс поиском по умолчанию?

The instructions to allow the brave search to work from the address bar have never been able to work. So I'm willing to try this suggested "startpage" search, but they recommend to install it via an xpi file. Currently Firefox on my Android will not access the xpi file how do I change this?

No trust. Won't keep a browser that Google has to know everything. This is why I downloaded one. But search bar shows Google is there. I factory reset before cause of no trust. I'll do again if have too. I have asked for help on their helpline. Lied too, manipulated and scammed out of money.i had, passcodes, passwords, and fingerprints set up, and all info of accounts. Still, Google wouldn't give my accounts back that had money in, but would put an old account up. Sick of nosy, un trusted browsers!!

For some reason for the last year I haven't been able to search anything relevant to what I'm looking for some how someone has me hacked and Firefox is the only browser I can get through to I've bought new phones at first it works then a couple days later the same things happens with the new phone that happened with the last phone. Please can someone help?

I need a default search string in order to add Firefox as a search option. Directions on the app advise how to add a search option, but a default search string is required and I haven't been able to figure out what use. https://firefox.com/search is the best I can guess. Any help for an old man is appreciated.
