Форум поддержки Firefox для Android

Using Firefox for Android on new Samsung phone. Some text on web sites appears garbled, like some letters came loose and landed on others on that line. Sometimes turning the phone sideways fixes it, temporarily. Is there anything I can do?

I got a new phone (new model as the old one - a replacement) and set up Firefox Sync on it. However, I haven't been able to get my Sync account to fully recognize this new phone.

When I go to Settings > My account and select "sync now", nothing ever happens. It always says "last synced: never". Bookmarks aren't synced. I can't change what syncs with the new phone, as they're greyed out (perhaps since it doesn't think the new phone ever synced?). When I try to go to the Synced tabs menu (next to the open tabs and private tabs), it just says "please enable tab syncing". Pressing the "Sync" button will make it say "Syncing..." but nothing changes.

I can change the name of the new phone in my account, and this is recognized by other devices synced to my account.

I had taken off my old phone from the sync account. I thought something was weird with my account. I tried adding the old phone back on and... it works fine. Bookmarks sync, tabs can be sent.

I've already tried: Clearing Firefox app cache on new phone = didn't work. Uninstalling Firefox and reinstalling it on the new phone. Signing into Sync again. = didn't work. Signing out of all devices on my Sync account, then signing in to my main computer and then new phone = didn't work.

What is wrong with this new phone?

Hi, I missed my two-step login, I do not have any device logged in. All my passwords were stored in this account, I desperately need it, please send me the recovery code again if possible

edited email from public and search/spam bots view as there was no need to post email in public.

There has been a sudden failure to resolve the graphics of websites I attempt to access in Firefox. I am using a Galaxy tab S2 with android 5.0.2.

Any attempt to view a website which uses graphics produces a few blocks of colour and maybe some black dots where the text is meant to be. This is a sudden change in performance. I don't get the same problem on other android devices or with windows 10.

Repeated uninstall / reinstall cycles have not improved matters. Firefox nightly produces the same result. It is possible that there is some incompatibility with a recent Guardian (newspaper) beta installation but that has been replaced with the stable public version without any improvement in Firefox performance. There are no associated crash reports.

Can anyone offer any assistance in diagnosing what is going on and correcting the problem please

Why in this browser only Facebook shows pages like this instead of the normal dark mode? This problem does not exist in other browsers, it only happens on Facebook

When clicking on local hyperlink to a PDF-file, like: href=photos/xxx.pdf .. i have to chose how to open, I useAdobe Acrobat, then firefox crashes. JPG works fine

is there a configuration to solve this or what to do? I appreciate all the help I can get.

Thank You

Hello

A few months ago, Firefox on my Android ebook reader (Likebook Ares, Android 8.1.0) started to render transparency channels in black (see images: comparison Firefox/Vivaldi). Any clues why this is happening?

Thanks for any help! Michael

Greetings everyone,

Sorry to be creating a thread about this, but it's a serious question I need help with.

I was just about to install Firefox for my old Android phone. However, before installing Firefox it warns me that it requires access to a bunch of my personal data... :(

Why is this the case?

I currently use Google Chrome on this Android phone.

I'd really appreciate any advice.

Every site I try to load has the warning in the attached screenshot. Im trying to switch from chrome to Firefox permanently but I get this error on literally every website I try except Firefox.com.

It's literally the only thing preventing me from using Firefox permanently on desktop and Android.

I understand it's because it says https but even on chrome I connect to every site with https and I rarely ever see a warning.

Also Google is automatically sending any email from Mozilla into the spam folder which seems... Anti trust to me.

Thanks

1. ¿Qué hay que hacer para cambiar la imagen del perfil en Firefox?

1. ¿What do I have to do to change the profile picture in Firefox?

2. ¿Hay alguien capacitado para instruir al respecto paso por paso?

2. ¿Is there someone trained to instruct on this step by step?

I want to sync my android phone with my desktop PC. I follow the instructions on the phone and scan the QR code on the PC and then I always get "missing oauth parameter.channel.id" Bad request.

Please assist.

On the previous Firefox browser I had on my Android phone, I set it to close all my tabs when I closed the browser. I've just updated to the new Firefox on Android and I can't find the option to do this. I have to manually close all the tabs every time I close the browser. Surely they haven't given us less options and features in the new version?!

Pressing quit in the app closes the tabs but it doesn't also close the app down on my phone.

The last update of Firefox Android completely broke base functionalities such as tabs, and you now have to go into sliding sub-menues just to open up new tabs, or even switch between tabs.

For the longest time, I've been trying to stave off using Chrome, even as more and more pages seem to flat-out not work, but with this latest update, I really can't excuse using Firefox anymore, as even basic usage now becomes a constant back-and-forth, trying to fight against the application itself.

Is there any way to resolve this, or am I forced to migrate?

Or, if this is not possible and Firefox Android 79 is indeed unusable, how do I upgrade to 68 (which I believe was the previous version) without losing my pre-existing tabs (of which I have oh-so-many).

When trying to play videos within YouTube, I want to use desktop mode instead of mobile but when you select full screen, it doesn't properly fit. in the phone (has a zoomed in look). resolution and speed aren't an issue, but full screen doesn't work in desktop mode.

used to rum firefox on Phones and Tablets .. for years ...

but if I try to update on T906 Phablet (2 years old ... and FIREFOX was working good!) .. it works NO longer

Any idea

I run ff on both desktop and mobile. I watch youtube on both. On desktop, no problems. Add ons include adbock for youtube. On mobile, I can see the thumbnails but when I attempt to play the video, I get "invalid response recieved" error message.

I've disabled the adblocking software thinking that was causing the problem, but nope. No change.

Whats up? Is Youtube attempting to force us to use their mobile app rather than accessing it through a browser?

Why won't Firefox work on Android phones? Always defaults to Google/Chrome so I can't login to apps and pages that only Firefox knows the passwords. How can I open apps and pages on Android phone using Firefox as default browser?
