The way it works on Android is that you need to clear the default you set earlier. Then you will get a list of possible applications to open links and you can choose Firefox.
You clear the current default by finding that application in Settings > Apps and then removing it as the default. I think the exact wording varies between Android versions. More info in this article: Make Firefox the default browser on Android.
Can you find the setting to clear? If not, what version of Android are you running?

Hi KarenLovell834, is that a MetroPCS device? If so, could you look for an app named metroWeb and see if that is the default browser? I'm just guessing from the way the icon is labeled in screen shots of the device.
