Hello!

The problem is I'm getting the "Unexpected response from server" message when trying to open any web page. Could you try to solve this without me updating the android version? My phone is not new and quick in the terms of performance so I do not update the OC. Please find the error examples, broeser version and my phone's system info attached in a form of screenshots.

Thank you Regards, Denis

The browser for android is excellent in a lot of ways, but I find it really irritating when I open the app and see tabs I already closed in my previous sessions open in the new session. You end up having to close the same tab multiple times because each time you leave the app and return, the tabs are automatically reopened. Sometimes as many as 2 or 3 previously closed tabs are reopened automatically whenever the app is opened next. I just find this quirk highly annoying and I wonder if there's a fix for this

I'm not sure if this behavior is intended or not.. but it seems unusual and like some sort of glitch.

Firefox re-opens tabs after the browser is closed. Say I hypothetically open the app to make a Google search, open a few tabs from the results, do some research, then close the most recent 4 tabs and then immediately close the entire app.

Upon my next opening of the app, I'm served the New Tab screen. Tapping the square icon that brings up my list of currently open tabs, reveals that those 4 tabs from my previous session have returned. This has persisted through the last few updates, and I've just been living with it for a month or two. If I close a bunch of tabs at once and then keep browsing, sometimes I'm able to keep some of them dead, but some will come back I think. It's inconsistent and strange.

Any help is appreciated.

Firefox for Android 117.0.1 Android 10 Build number QP1A.190711 Samsung Note 9 N960U1

Why does the desktop settings keep changing to mobile. This option should not be allowed to be changed by website developers when they identify your browser as a mobile device. I find mobile view is inferior to desktop view and usually has less information that is on the desktop deals I never use it and I'm constantly having to change it back to desktop view when visiting other pages.

I suggest that fire food / Mozilla make the settings option for desktop a user option that is not changeable by websites.

Hello,

I want to delete all the passwords I have saved on FireFox,

I have saved a lot of passwords so it is too heavy for me to delete them one by one, so please suggest some solution or something by which the entire saved passwords can be deleted at one go.

I have some personal reasons due to which I am requesting you.

It is not even giving the option to delete Saved password.

Firefox Beta for Android frequently loads webpages as a blank black or grey page. Reloading the tab does nothing - only closing it and reopening it allows the page to load as expected.

I'm a big fan of Firefox and have been using it as my main browser for years, but this issue happens so often that I'm considering moving over to Samsung Internet when on mobile.

P.S. I know it isn't an addon issue as this still happens when all extensions are disabled.

I'm using a Galaxy 21FE on Android 13. Tracking protection is set to default. HTTPS only mode is enabled.

I opened Firefox on my fold 5 and I can't see my tabs...I only see a small box with a number that represents the websites I have open. If I click that numbered box a window opens showing me all the tabs still open. I would like to view my tabs the old way...the way it was when I fell in love with Firefox. Is it not possible with fold 5 or am I doing something wrong???

If I open chrome however it does display all tabs in toolbar menu area. I could just use Chrome but as mentioned I would rather stay loyal to Firefox.

Thanks in advance, Mike s

First of all, I really appreciate firefox team's effort.

This problem is like this.

When I closed firefox android version After searching with keyword in address bar, usually when I restart app and if I try to input keywords in address bar, previous keyword has to be removed by typing a first alphabet in order to prevent combining previous keywords and new keywords.

But now my firefox has made a trouble by combining of previous keywords and new keywords.

It is really inconvenient because I have to manually remove formal keywords with back space key whenever I use keyword searching in address bar of firefox.

This issue exists in only firefox. As to other my browsers don't have such problem.

Hope to get your help to solve this issue

In the past, I could search for a business and the green phone would pop up on it and I could push it and it would open in my call/dial pad. Now it won't. When you click on it in the android mobile version it initially seems like it wants to load but immediately stops and does nothing. Am fully updates, full permissions, and cache/cookies cleaned since this started. Is there any other settings I should be looking at?
