Firefox for Android Community Forum

I did a factory reset on my phone, and I cannot find my backups for firefox, I tried doing the about:profiles, but nothing is working, it looks as if I created another account, how do I either see my other profiles or find my backups

I recently imported a bookmarks on my laptop last Sunday. Today, when I open firefox on my laptop, there are no bookmarks, so I restore from yesterday's backup and the imported bookmarks appeared. But all the bookmarks in my phone disappeared.

I am trying to migrate to new Android phone and I am having great difficulty with migrating the firefox profile wholesale. The adb backup method fails. The sync method will not transfer addon settings (I have extensive list of ublock origin filters). Besides I would like not to touch cloud for profile migration.

I have tried https://github.com/Rob--W/firefox-android-backup-restore but that failed epically (and I am very technical person).

I do not want to root the android (it breaks banking apps).

What now?

Really appreciate the suggestions.

I am not looking forward to re-login to all the sessions and recreate all the filters.

Hi everyone,

unfortunately the device "Xiaomi" ... is the one that by accident I clicked close tabs (I have a neuromuscular disease) and the all dissappeared. This Xiaomi I was bookmarking all my open tabs and inactive tabs, to move them all to the new device. Unfortunately they disappeared. everything. I switched off internet connection immediately, because syncing Because syncing to other devices is always with tabs.... and this way, I always moved the synced tabs from an android phone to Desktops, opened them there all and bookmarked.

Now last time I synced desktop (Lenovo) was one year ago. I tried on a new one with another Redmi phone, but I can't see yhe Xiaomi one, only to this new one...S 15449.

The thing is I see the bookmarks from this one to my Xiaomi, and this Redmi was synced to my Xiaomi, where it says it has the information before the accident (the Xiaomi is offline now) but it's not showing in the tabs region "see other devices" only the new S 15449.

I add some pictures. Shouldn't this device seeing the Xiaomi as it was before? I hope you could help me please 🙏🏻🥺. It was over 100 Tabs they're re very important to me. On the third photo I even can see them "opened" but how to see them here, besides what pops in my head there were there.

Best wishes, Margarita

Hi! I accidentally deleted 30 inactive tabs that I planned to read later in Android firefox app with button "Close all tabs" and there is no way to restore them now.

Good afternoon,

I'm contacting you regarding data recovery from my DOOGE-X5pro device.

At the moment, synchronization and link "about: accounts?action=signin" d'not work on the old device. And it is possible that the device was inadvertently removed from the account, but this was done between 2018 and 2020. And you have updated your mozilla.org account services.

I'm asking you if it's possible to restore deleted devices from a backup? Specifications below.

Device setings:

Device: DOOGEE Model: X5pro Android version: 5.1

Android FireFox setings: Version: 60.0.1

I've been using Firefox on both my Linux PC and my Android phone for years. Yesterday when I pulled it up on the phone I was told it wouldn't work and needed an update. I checked for updates in the PlayStore and found nothing. So I uninstalled and reinstalled it. On the phone it has lost all history and password access. I took a copy of the history from the desktop site and copied the file to the phone, but can't find a way to get it to load.

So today i accident clicked clear data because i thought i clicked clear cache now i lost all my password and previous tab and more how do i recover back in android? :( is it lost forever?

browsing history disappeared through no action of mine! (happened just now) Using Firefox on android and my entire browsing history (which was extensive) just disappeared! CAN I get it back? HOW??
