Firefox for Android Community Forum

Good evening,

ever since the latest update (and the version before it) I've encountered a problem with pasting saved user names and passwords into the login brackets.

Expected behaviour: A website is loaded; the website is a login page for which I have saved user data. For the login id and password bracket each Firefox suggests the information via dropdown menu. I choose the specific data set, after which the brackets are filled automatically by the app.

Encountered behaviour: I choose the specific data set, but the information is not filled into the brackets. The user data has to be entered manually for each bracket.

Thanks in advance for the help!

Kind regards, Il_Bolognese

I'm encountering an issue on Firefox mobile where in-browser video playback only buffers a few minutes of a video file, plays it normally for a few minutes, and then stops and won't load any additional video. Refreshing the page and scrubbing forward on the video to the point I left off will let me continue for the next few minutes but it inevitably stops again after a few more minutes. It's as though Firefox is only willing to buffer a video when the page is first loaded, and it forgets to keep buffering as the video is played through. This is frustrating for short videos where this would need to be done a couple of times, but is untenable for anything longer.

This issue replicates on any streaming website I use the browser for, it happens on multiple different networks, and it not an issue with any other video apps on my device. So I suspect it is locallized to an issue with Firefox mobile. I have tried updating Firefox (running v 110.0.1) but the problem persists

Is there a fix for this? A setting I'm missing somewhere? Maybe is it possible to increase the buffer limit on the mobile app so that it can load a whole video at once, instead of just a small portion of it when the page first loads?

Thank you!

Today I was out of the house for a bit, and towards the end of it, I noticed that my phone was really hot. I checked the notifications, and android had given me an alert that my phone had used 7 GB of mobile data (the alarm is set to notify me for anything past 1GB). This was presumably in the space of slightly over an hour - while I wasn't even using the phone actively at all. according to android's "application data usage", all but 52 bytes of that was all foreground usage. But the thing is, I'm confused what even it was using that much data on - I don't think it could have been autoplaying videos, since I think the tab it was open to was something like reddit. I'm wanting to know what could have caused it to use that much data in that short a time without me actively doing things which are that data-intensive. Could it be something to do with the fact I had quite a few tabs open? are background tabs constantly requesting data or something? could it be some kind of virus? I'm honestly not sure, but I'd appreciate feedback so that this doesn't happen again. I'm also unsure if there's any way to generate a diagnostic report of the app, or anything like that, so if there is, please let me know.

This issue started earlier this month. Sometimes, when I click on the address bar to enter a new address or something like that, Firefox freezes and I have to restart it and after the restart it comes back to the page I was in like 10 minutes ago.

Getting error Proxy Server Refused Connection sometime from past few days. Unable to browse any website. I have mobile connection with BSNL network provider, and with other networks or VPN, it's do work fine.

With my current network provider (BSNL) all other apps and browsers working fine.

Also uninstalled and reinstalled app but issue still persist.

I used to have loads of inactive tabs and usually around 9-10 active taps and sometimes 30 tabs in total and it was all good.

Start with (I think) version 109 it when I have around 9-10 tabs (no inactive) the firefox automatically closes itself right after I start it.

Doesn't leave me any chance to even close tabs or do anything.

I tried: force stop then clear cache and still happens.

If on top of those above I also do clear recent apps, it might work.

I noticed it would work if it doesn't have the thumbnails of tabs which might imply that when it doesn't have other tabs cached it works fine.

This did not happen in the Android 12 version.

This is happening after updating to Android 13.

Notification window appears too big in mobile (pop-up window)

Any idea how to fix it using [about:config] right now?

I keep having a problem on when returning to a tab or someone when opening a link the page is simply shown as a black screen. It appears that the page is loaded in the background but literally nothing is displayed on screen.

Refreshing does nothing. Navigating to a different page does nothing (as in the screen is still black, but Firefox goes through the motions of "loading" the page). Searching does the same.

If I close the tan and then immediately hit undo the page will often be displayed.

This has been going on for maybe 2/3 months now and I have updated the application and my phone multiple times; both are up to do.

I can only assume this is a bug at the stage, but if someone has insight into a work around, that would be great.

This problem has kept annoying me for months now: When I load my youtube subscriptions page on my tablet, Firefox keeps kicking me over to the mobile site (m.youtube.com instead of www.youtube.com) which is bloody annoying. Changing the m to www manually will do me no good, it gets changed back to m as soon as i hit enter. Turning on the desktop site switch in the menu will only work temporarily, it's only a matter of time before I get kicked back to the mobile site. It's not a question of IF it happens, it's a question of WHEN it happens.

The thing is that this ONLY happens with youtube in Firefox on my tablet, but not in Firefox on my phone, my computer or other websites, and it does not happen in opera on the tablet either. That tells me that it is a Firefox problem (maybe some setting?), not a YouTube problem.

So why does Firefox do this, and how can I stop it?

PS. It's the latest version of Firefox on a galaxy tab s2 running Android 7. No, updating to a newer version of Android is not an option :-( Thanks, Samsung!

After a variable time-frame, from few minutes to a couple of hours maximum of usage, the app freezes.

It is possible to close it from the drawer and restart it after a while. The problem always recurs.

Sometimes the phone also reboots itself. Approximately once every 5/10 freezes.

The problem does not seems dependent on updates, add-ons or other phone options.

The problem is present since I bought the phone in August. After a few months of tests I'm fairly sure this is a problem related only to the Firefox app.
