Firefox for Android Support Forum

I have my phone configured to route its DNS requests through a locally hosted DNS server. I noticed that the DNS requests made by my phone through Firefox are not routing through my local DNS server even though requests route through the server when using Chrome.[[ From what I could find online|https://support.mozilla.org/bm/questions/1425188]] it sounds like DoH is not a feature on Firefox for Android so I am confused why my DNS requests made through Firefox on Android are not routing through the local DNS server. This issue does not occur on any of my desktops/laptops where I use Firefox to browse.

Please let me know if you have any other troubleshooting steps to try or any clarifying questions. Thank!

Two questions: 1. I have a 30 mega bite DSL internet connection, but when I watch some videos I get the whirling circle, sometimes another. Also while the video is paused/locked, it continues to run in the background, so I loose the video during that time. A work around used to be, use the forward or back buttons. This brings me to the second question. 2. What happened to the Forward and Back 10 or 15 seconds buttons or circles? They seem to have gone away recently.

Firefox mobile sometimes zooms in without able to zoom out on all sites. Seems to only happen whenever the samsung app store updates it. for context, i downloaded firefox through google play store but the samsung store for some reason updates the app every now and then. It happened twice so far, and reinstalling it on the play store seems to fix it

Firefox for Android has issues playing back YouTube video through my car stereo and some other types of speakers. Specifically, it works fine with my headphones but not through my car.

Chrome, YouTube app, and other browsers don't have this issue and my car is fine otherwise. I've had this issue on 3 different phones from 2 different manufacturers on multiple versions of Firefox for years and the issue comes and goes with updates but it has been an issue for the past few months now, so I know it's Firefox and not Android or my phones.

Firefox Android 122.0.1

Hello,

I am looking for a way to allow the storage of cookies and local storage data for certain websites. Like it is possible with Firefox for Linux with Cookies and Website Data -> Manage Exceptions.

Is this also possible with firefox for Android ?

with best regards Vic

Hi,

I face this two issues:

1- if you open a photo inside google search, you can't change the browser to Desktop mod

Here is a video: https://share.stars-host.com/firefox/1.mp4

2- I was registering on one of the sites and i leave for second on another app... When i return i found that all the data that i enter to register was removed because firefox refreshing the page 🥲

Here is example video: https://share.stars-host.com/firefox/2.mp4

The second issue need to be fix because i use another browsers when i want to register for Governmental things, for example, that require me to enter the passport number, which is in the photo gallery...

There is a lot of data that you entered and then it is deleted in an instant when you move to another application for a few seconds (there must be a strong temporary storage space

Best regards, Yahya

Hello all,

Recently, I was browsing a website when Firefox (Windows 10, version 122) suddenly showed me an info bar asking me to turn on DRM content. While the message seems clear, I still wish to ask if it may be possible that websites force Firefox to download DRM modules and load them against my choice (and if possible to explain, how Firefox knows that DRM content is present on the page to begin with).

A copy of the pop-up I found online is attached to this post.

Thank you all in advance!

I cant connect to my Mozilla Services ,,,i can't enable my Javascript for Firefox and a novies and don't know how so I've pressings any links i just my situation worst

I have an issue with my keyboard not showing up when I try to type in search bars specifically when the sites are saved as app shortcuts. The keyboard works fine when the sites are tabs within the firefox app but once I save sites as a shortcut and open through the shortcut, the keyboard will appear for a split second and disappear right away.

I open Gmail links and Firefox opens then in a floating window in android tablet. How to fix this? This is really annoying. I've tried unchecking the Gmail open links in Gmail to speed up browsing setting but that didn't work. Firefox is my default browser . I'm on news Lenovo tablet. I installed Firefox and from Day one I have this problem even before changing any Firefox settings. When I change default browser to Google Chrome it works fine . Also on my Samsung phone the Gmail links open fine in Firefox. I'm only having this problem on my tablet. Can anyone please help?

I have the Goodreads app installed on my OnePlus 8 running Android 13.1. When I get emails from members who comment, instead of the app opening Firefox opens a tab after having cleared defaults. I have also selected the Ask When opening settings but nothing changes. Please explain how to fix this. Thanks

Every now and then the screen if my phone gets blank and regains it's gorm may be it seems some overlapping issues through system interventions as I could see a shared browser is present in my phone of wch I am not aware off. So I would request Mozilla to activate only the Mobile data as I am not connected with any wi-fi connection to my internet services so see to that no number is linked or overlapped especially the organisational ones Regards & Gratitude K S KRISHNANANDA PRABHU

I tried to update Firefox tonight to the latest version and I got a message telling me that it couldn't install the update so I cleared the database and cache and restarted my phone and when that didn't work, I uninstalled the Firefox app and now it says it can't download the app so I'm without Firefox until I can get this fixed.

I'm at my wits end. This issue started yesterday morning, and is still persisting, and I'm not quite sure what to do at this point other than use Chrome for One Singular Website and nothing else.

Currently, the website does the following:

1. I open a new tab on this website.
2. It asks me to log in.
3. I select "Log in with Google".
4. Firefox asks me "Prevent this site from opening a pop-up window?" and includes a link to the Google login doohickey.
5. I tap "ALLOW" which opens the Google login doohickey in a new tab, where I sign in with my Google account.
6. It goes back to the original tab, not having logged me in.

Previously, it would not give me a message about the pop-up, and would work fine. Presumably, asking this "Are you sure?" causes something to break with this one website's sign-in.

I have tried with Enhanced Tracking Protection set to Standard (default), Strict, and Custom, disabling all security features and throwing caution to the wind. None of these have fixed it.

I've tried going to about:config, since that was mentioned in a similar support post on here. It just leads me back to the tab I already have open, seemingly not doing Anything.

I've looked through every tab in settings, including Site permissions, and there is No Menu Option at all for pop-ups.

This was a very recent change, and only started giving me problems in February.

Whenever i stream any kind of videos the bar on the top and bottom appears i want them to disappear so i can focus on my video only. Even if the bottom bar disappears the top bar still remains unchanged .
