Firefox for Android DNS Issue

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!

Sometimes I have a need to copy or edit part of very long URL that includes many passed parameters and tokens in address bar of FireFox for Android. Having to swipe twenty times to get to required position in string is not very convenient comparing to ease of such procedure on PC where you have mouse and Home/End keys.

I'd like to request for a new feature of on/off toggle for address bar in FF for Android that could switch it into multiline edit mode where all URL would be visible and easily navigated and edited. I just don't know where to submit it.

Hello,

The speeds I'm getting both on and off a VPN is slower than other browsers. I've compared Firefox to Google, Brave and Edge. All are much faster, especially in the upload speeds.

Please advise, Rodney

After some recent updates, I cannot download any file, especially pdf.

"Share" -> "Save as PDF" does not work for me.

When I click any download button, either for pdf or other type of file, the download progress bar is animated indefinitely without any visible progress, no files are appearing on my phone.

hi team, i think there is something wrong with firefox's battery utilisation. as shown in my screenshots above, i dont use browser much day to day but the battery usage is ridiculous compared to youtube etc.

1. i started noticing huge battery consumption on 29th jan when i decided to check my battery utilisation just for fun. realised it has been happening all the time. 2. i then put firefox into deep sleep when not in use to restrict background usage on 30th jan thinking it will help. 3. woke up on 31st jan (today) with firefox still running in the background when im asleep despite putting it into deep sleep and now having to force stop whenever i use firefox (which is not sustainable)

please advice/fix this issue if possible. for context, im using the s24 ultra.

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!

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

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.

Cannot get my phone's default DNS resolver to be used by Firefox. My network has an intranet complete with it's own DNS, which my phone's receives via DHCP. Android 'Private DNS' is turned off. The routing on my network is fine, as evidenced by being able to access my intranet from other mobile browsers on the same device. All add-ons are turned off, as well as 'Enhanced Tracking Protection' and 'HTTPS-Only Mode'. Any explanations, or more importantly, suggestions?

I downloaded some files while in private browsing. I'm absolutely positive they fully download as I was able to see them in my gallery and set some as a phone wallpaper. After I closed the tab/private mode, all the files were just gone. I do not have the setting to delete on exit enabled.

One file that I chose to delete myself was able to be restored so I was able to see I wasn't going crazy, but all the other ones don't even come up as deleted in Total Commander or anywhere else on my device.
