Firefox for Android Community Forum

I will have to stop using Mozilla after many years - sad. But I am getting links blocked by stupid error messages about security when the sources are well known and protected. Today it was the Journal of the American Medical Association. I have no time to deal with this nonsense.

When I try to open firefox on my android phone, it just closes and gives me an error message which I have attached a screen shot of.

I do not know if this is related but this happened after I scanned a qr code and tried to open it.

I have un-installed and reinstalled the app and turned my phone off then on again after reinstalling but this did not help.

Pls can you help?

Please tweak your browser. give as much performance as any other browser available in the market. It loads some web pages slower than a snail. According to the test I have conducted on browserbench.org, firefox has performed below avarage. Please I request you to tweak your browser, I am a loyal firefox user since 2010 but the recent updates has been so garbage that I had to switch in edge browser as my daily internet needs.

My tabs are being refresh everytime after I left to switch to other tabs then come back. This constantly happening even when I did not open another app, just browsing between firefox tabs. Already play with battery setting in app info and change it to unrestricted and nothing changes. Can anyone help? btw I'm using galaxy tab s6

I have updated the Firefox to 133.0 (Build #2016056951), hg-24fce2fbde95+GV: 133.0-20241118181856n AS: 133.0. When I open new tab, and open any website, the default is set to "Desktop Mode", how do I reset it to normal default mode?

On the latest Firefox Nightly builds (I use Nightly for extensions), holding the back button in the Android navigation bar no longer brings up previous pages, like it does when holding the back button in the three dot menu. Is there a config option to bring this back?

I used to be able to hold the back button down so I could see a short history for the current tab, and I'm not sure if it was an update or a bug, but does anyone know if it's possible to enable it in about:config? It's really useful when you're trying to go back but a redirect is preventing you.

I've recently been using Firefox for work, due to this I use a cisco VPN, but everytime I turn it on, fire fox stops working by saying that the proxy refused the connection. I tried using chrome and it worked fine. I've rebooted my router and phone but still same the issue keeps happening, this doesn't happen when using Firefox on VPN on my laptop, just on my phone. Any help on this?

Phone: Samsung S22 Firefox version: 132.0.2

Firefox on my Android smartphone is well synchronized with Firefox on the computer. I can see that both contain the same list of logins and passwords. When I must log in other applications, there is a notice that appears saying "unlock faierferox" followed by the sign of fingerprints. But when I try to have my fingerprint recognized, nothing happens.

What should I do?

Thanks for helping.

Hi, I got a problem since many weeks on Firefox Nightly, the elements on websites that should stick to the bottom float around 30pixels above the bottom. It's kinda annoying. My app is up-to-date. I got a Huawei P20. Thanks Elise

Entering any text on Reddit or most forums using Firefox Nightly for Android forces indenting and carriage returns to be deleted. Even as I'm typing the text will jump randomly to condense into a single paragraph and add multiple spaces to indent the paragraph.

Samsung S24U, I saw the same behavior on my S22U as well, so it isn't a cache/cookies thing. I do not experience the issue with regular Firefox for Android.

134.0a1 (Build #2016056007), hg-108d038388ff+ GV: 134.0a1-20241113215256 AS: 134.20241109050310 2024-11-14T00:26:45.516647892

This has been going on for at least several weeks. SF Chron support escalated the issue to their tech dept (not on site), which claimed that the problem is FF, not them.

The ' add home screen ' function not working. If i click on it than the the function is not working. It is not adding the webpage to home screen. Or sometimes this function is very useful to install the webpage in our mobile but its not working. Please fix this.
