Hi. I'm on the latest Thunderbird Beta for Android. I have recently received some emails from a university (probably sent from Outlook), containing a couple of attachments (signatures), and the moment I click to open any of them, Thunderbird just restarts. The messages can be opened easily from the Gmail app or from the GMX mail app. Any idea?

LE: just updated the app and the problem is gone, I suppose I'm not the only one who noticed it. Thank you

Hello,

I am experiencing a recurring issue with Firefox on Kali Linux.

Environment:

- OS: Kali Linux (running inside Termux on Android) - Connection: VNC (RealVNC) - Device: Android phone (low RAM) - Desktop: XFCE

Problem: Whenever I open Firefox, tabs frequently crash with the message: “Gah. Your tab just crashed.”

What I already tried:

- Disabled hardware acceleration - Disabled recommended performance settings - Ran Firefox in safe mode - Created a new Firefox profile - Lowered VNC resolution - Restarted the system

The problem still persists.

I believe this may be related to graphics rendering or memory limitations under VNC/Termux.

Please advise if there is a workaround or configuration that can prevent this crash.

Thank you for your support.

After updating to 150 (any subversion), FF crashes on almost start - I can load a page but loading another page or a video in the page will stop loading after a while and crash within 5-10sec. No about:crashes generated. No crash if I only browse the page that's opened (except if I load extra content like videos). FF remembers if I navigate to another page before the crash, it'll open the navigated-to tab (provided it has been long enough, small pages load, big pages don't). It really looks like after loading a fixed amount of data it just stops loading and crashes, taking the full browser down with it. Note that there is likely 500+ tabs opened (even though it's never been a problem), cache was cleared and extensions deactivated.

For the first time in many many years, the beta's unstable (brillant track record for a beta)!

Firefox keeps crashing and loosing what I type on pages like this.

It happenst the most if you have to check another application or answer a call. But, it also does this when copying over passcodes from other applications to a webpage.

This frequently happens with the latest version on the Android mobile platform.

I didn't change any setting personally anf this has never had any issues until now.

Running Firefox Android on a Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 tablet running Android 12. Using Firefox version 153.0.4 (Build #2016177879), 54be19de0e08edff0b797e55fd935dd3978b0a6d GV: 153.0.4-20260810162159 AS: 153.0 OS: Android 12 Also using a Fintie bluetooth keyboard. The keyboard shuts off when not used for couple of minutes. When I need it I tap the keyboard to bring it back but then Firefox crashes and needs to be restarted. How can I fix this?

Okay. So I downloaded Firefox on my chromebook from flathub, but it keeps crashing. I open a new tab: it crashes. I close a tab: it crashes. I don't open or close anything: it crashes. I don't touch anything: it crashes.

I've says that either my theme or one of my add-ons is causing the crashes but I removed my theme and it still crashes and I can't remove any add-on because it crashes if I try to open a new tab.

Now, did/does anyone else have this problem or am I just stupid and missing a very obvious thing.

Hello, Firefox keeps crashing numerous times everyday, I've just uninstalled it then reinstalled it and within minutes another notification it's crashed, works fine on my pc and been using it for years.

Mail.com support recommended that I install Thunderbird to clean out my inbox. Things went perfectly and I managed to delete 20,000. Then the app just STOPPED. It wouldn't delete any more. I emptied my email's trash, restarted my phone twice, and cleared the cache several times. The app is just inoperable.

Please help! I have 265,000 more emails to delete.

The latest crash:

HELP!!!!

Since version 134 of Firefox Android has been out, it crashes EVERY TIME when I try ot use the "back" gesture on my Xiaomi 14(i.e. swiping from right or left side of the screen) I tried Firefox 134, Iceraven 2.27 (also based on the same Gecko) - they act the same. In the same time I also have Waterfox, based in the previous version of Firefox 133, and it responds properly. I guess it is related to the latest version only. Here's the crash log:

f5e34211-feda-4d80-b244-c2e4db76c44d java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'float android.window.BackMotionEvent.getTouchX()' on a null object reference

Whenever I upload a file via my phone (Samsung Galaxy A55 5G), Firefox shows the upload prompt (selecting where the file is going to be) then crashes on its own.

I noticed this when I was using Canva, then tried a few more sites and the upload-crash problem persists all throughout.

Is there any way to troubleshoot this?

Recently, I've had an issue with your browser on my desktop. I use AOL for my homepage. When I open the browser, it takes a long time to load. When it finally does, sometimes the tab crashes immediately. If it doesn't, I try to open another tab and that will crash. I don't have the problem when I use Edge. Any suggestions? If I remove Firefox and reinstall it, will I get all my favorites back?.

Hello,

I've been having an issue where Firefox Android keeps crashing whenever I tap the address bar. This happens when any tabs are open (even just 1) and even when I try to open a new tab to try and avoid the crashing.

The issue is consistent and repeatable for almost a year now. Thought updates would fix it as this issue was reported before. However, even after multiple updates, clearing the cache, uninstalling and reinstalling, and disabling all extensions the issue persists.

This is also not just limited to the address bar but also happens when I try to change the search engine from the quick switch on the address bar, search my bookmarks, history and settings, and sometimes when even trying to type into a website. While typing this post I backed away, closing the keyboard, when I clicked back into the text box to type the app crashed.

The only way for me to type in an address or search for something is to close all open tabs and then type into the address bar. Even a single open tab causes the app to crash repeatedly.

After the most recent Thunderbird app update from Google play, the Thunderbird app crashes instantly and constantly on start up. I did restart, uninstall, reinstall, OS update, clear cache, smart clean and still the Thunderbird app crashes instantly on start up. The screen will flash a few times as the app attempts to start. But instantly a window pops up saying the app has unfortunately shutdown. I am at witts end. I have been using Thunderbird for years. Never had this happen before. Anyone have any ideas? Google suggests getting hold of Mozilla support because this is becoming an on going issue. Please help.
