Firefox for Android Support Forum

When attempting to open Firefox after this morning's update, I received only a message saying this version (armeabi-v7a.15) won't work. I've searched the site for advice about what to do, but the only relevant stuff I've found indicates that it should work on Android 4.0. I don't know what to do next - other than give up.

In Firefox for Android it was suggested that I "create the preference browser.download.dir as a string." I don't know how to do that even in Firefox for Windows. What does it mean, and how do I do it?

Every time I save an image through Firefox for Android, it adds a JPEG extension, resulting in FILENAME.JPG.JPEG. Since most Android apps don't recognize JPEG, I've got to go into a file manager and rename the JPEG back to JPG before it's useful.

This used to be an issue with Firefox for Windows that was fixable with a MIME type edit, but that doesn't seem to be an option with Android.

It's driving me nuts. Help?

FF Keeps crashing when open, always tries to send crash report.

FF also pushes notifications that the "App FF has closed due to an error communicating with the server, etc" This happens even when 3g and Wifi are enabled and working. Happens every five mins or so.

Hello. Excuse me, but I would to ask. I did never before, but today I have readthe description about Firefox. Did your author of description (I read russian version) read that he composed? Was he drunk or used a drugs?

Thanks for attention.

Ever since updating to Firefox 35, when I take a screenshot by holding the home and power buttons together, Firefox search pops up with a list of my Firefox search history and a search prompt. How can I disable this? Android 4.4

I have two PCs with sync configured and one android device. I can see that there is no problem with synchronizing data between PCs, but I cannot see my data on android device.

I have on both PCs ff 30 and new sync configured (I upgraded from old sync). I also tried to delete my old sync account, create a new one with same email and then configure.

I also signed up on android device to my sync account. The problem is that I cannot choose data which should be synced (positions are grey - disabled). And I don't see data from pc on android. On PC I syncrhonize bookmarks, passwords, and settings. On Android I want to syncrhonize passwords and bookmarks. What should I do to make this work?

hi there, i have updated firefox on android 6.0.1 to version firefox 54.0 (maybe even longer, i don't know exactly) and: it doesn't work any longer to download pictures from the net. do you know how i can fix this problem and can please help me with that?

The "top sites" feature is a nice idea, but most of the time I don't use it.

So I was wondering if it's possible to disable or remove it.

If not, could a extension be created, to disable or remove it?

Firefox for android has no download indicator bar, it only says downloading.

No way to tell how long will it take and how fast it is downloading.

Please do add and a download indicator with the download progress numerical indicator, just like what you did for firefox for windows.

I have a huawei ideos s7 and installed Firefox in December. Upgraded Firefox in January(I think) and it worked fine! Today I upgraded it again and now Firefox launches but immediately closes down.
