Hi,

When using Firefox recently I've noticed my android 12 phone (running on LineageOS 19) is getting noticeably hot within a short period of time of launching Firefox. Additionally I notice a battery drain of roughly 20% in a time span of 20 minutes.

By estimate this started happening about 2 updates ago as of the time of writing this.

I'm using a OnePlus 6T and have root acces, not an expert user. Though I do know my way around software and hardware. Feel free to ask or send short instructions on how to help you guys solve this performance bug.

If you guys need a log or any other information please tell me and I'd be happy to help.

Best regards, Vincent

Hi

I am not aware of this being reported by other people. When you rooted your device, what changes did you make?

Hello Paul,

Did it by using adb over computer, after I simply sideloaded LOS19 and Gapps. Everything according to the specified order on the LOS wiki.

After first boot and setup I've installed Magisk. No exceptional modules used other than Props config to pass the safety net security.

It worked fine for a good while coming from LOS18 (A11).
