Firefox for Android Support Forum

If I ask to view youtube after asking for the desktop site (request desktop site) there is a flickering strip across the bottom of every video. This also happens if I use the plugin Phony.

This has started only after I updated FF a few days ago.

Thanks for any help

I have had this device ASUS MEMO Pad for 6 months and Firefox for Android has never been able to play any media or plugin content without crashing. I have tried playing flash with the appropriate flash plugin installed and without and it crashes every time (it should not crash even without the plugin - it should handle it).

Even HTML5 video and mp3 audio will cause a crash every time (with tap to play enabled or disabled).

I recently. Upgraded to the new Firefox for android and all of my tabs disappeared which was unexpected, but alright. What is not alright though is that after I fixed the tabs I wanted they disappeared again when I closed the browser. I have it set to restore tabs, but it only does so 1 or 2 times out of 10 and never when I restart my phone. How can I fix this? It's just plain annoying! I never had this issue with 28!

is it possible to change the bandwidth for Firefox? photon browser gives you this option. does make a difference on my phone. my phone is Samsung galaxy s4 with jellybean 4.3. Firefox is my main browser with duckduckgo my search engine. thanks in advance

Hi,

On Android Firefox, say I an on a web page and either zoom in using double tap or pinch and then click a link on the page. Firefox displays the page. All good.

If I then use the back button to return to the previous page, Firefox will not display the page as it was previosly zoomed in. It requires me to either zoom in again by double tap or pinch.

Is the a setting or add-on that will preserve the zoomed in state after returning to a previous page using the back button?

Thanks in advance.

I would like to know what the 'barriers to entry' are for the next gen mobile OSes (Tizen, Sailfish, BB10, Ubuntu Touch etc.). I know iOS and most of the older ones are ruled out because of no support, but I can't come to terms with the development aspects because most of the above OSes (mostly Linux based) use very similar libraries, so I don't understand why porting even the old Maemo version would be difficult. Thanks in advance.

I have been having this problem since 06/01/2014 with www.cruzetalk.com & www.9thgencivic.com. I have submitted multiple crash reoprts. I am using an ASUS TF700T tablet with v4.2.1 OS and the current version of FF. I only have this problem with these two sites with the Android version of FF. There are no issues with the current version of the Windows version of FF on these sites. After afew seconds of typing, FF will just crash. It can be a few as 5 or 6 words and if you pause for a few seconds, FF just crashes, or it will crash while you are typing. My usual internet connection is via the local router in my house. My wireless connection speed is 54Mbps and my cable modem connection speed to the ISP is 26Mbps. I am using AdBlockPlus and Ghostery addons also, as I do on my Windows version of FF.

I've updated the app today to the newest version. When I tried changing the character encoding on a website that'S not displaying properly, I found that selecting a different encoding did nothing except check the circle next to it. The only thing I could do from there was to select cancel or push return on my phone. It's getting a bit annoying to surf on a few websites now since I can't fix the encoding.

The OK button in the Character Encoding page disappeared in the latest version. Even after I choose a code page, it only shows the Cancel button and doesn't allow me to change encoding.

FireFox 29.0, Android 4.0.4
