Android browser, location not working, exhausted various app and phone settings, it's stuck in NY city. Google Chrome has accurate location data. Editing about:config didn't work, applying a set of instructions from about 7 months ago. Extension Location Guard seems to have allowed me to fix a location, and has become a temporary fix. Wondering if it's the phone or browser, although other apps using location seem to work.

I have a ton of java malware and DNS redirects on my device and it Im trying to remove it but it seems like the abuser is still has some type of device admin still. What's my best options if I really need my device (android) to function for just a while longer sothat I can replace all of the other bricked and malfunctioning equipment that got wave linked with it? I'm not even totally sure the abuser has gone on because some of the software is still not working properly and some has even changed from the developers intended use. Im frustrated can someone give me advie

Die Synchronisation der Firefox Android App funktioniert nicht mehr zuverlässig. Teilweise tagelange Unterbrechungen, obwohl Einstellungen und Verbindung korrekt sind. Abhilfe schafft nur Neuinstallation und/oder Trennung und Neuanmeldung im Account.

Hi Bookmarking over the last 3-4 updates have changed a lot. Adding a bookmark these days now by default ends up n the folder I last visited ... even visited on my PC (bookmarks are shared via my Firefox account). I therefore have to edit the location every time I'm adding a new bookmark, a tiresome and not needed not wanted process. I liked the old default on the Android version so much better. It had its own folder (when viewing bookmarks on my PC), and was clearly separated by mobile (I using two mobiles). Had hoped there was an optional default to modify, but if there is I cant find it. I'm I missing something. Cheers Bjarne

Thank you jscher2000, you have the right solution. Now I have a different problem in this context. I use the Mozilla Firefox browser deleting all cookies after finishing the browser, and now I want to enter Startpage as an exception. Unfortunately, I cannot find this option. I am sure you can help me here too. Brigitte

Firefox for Android, Galaxy phone

Whenever I use "previous page" or back arrow to return to a Google search results web page it goes to the top of the page of search results instead of returning to where I left off.

For example, if I tap on the 57th link on a page of Google search results to check out the web page and then i tap the back arrow to return to the page of Google search results it should return to the 57th search result where I left off. In actuality it goes to the top of the search results page and I have to scroll down to the 57th search result to resume from where I left off.

When I tried to recreate this problem in the Opera browser for Android it always returned to where I left off.

Firstly I've been a Firefox on android user forever & thanks so much for a fab browser all round. Even if it runs slower, for some reason at times than say Chrome on this phone. Please. Hoping there a setting to disable the below total annoyance, not convenience, for just a few of us it seems from my weeks & weeks of looking up. I'm truly amazed most are fine with it & I'm here finally as fed up with searching the web for already answered

So. I do not want, need nor appreciate the new, "convenience", of when I want to add a new bookmark to a folder, now comes with the little pop-up that shows it will be saved to the last folder a bookmark was saved to.

Sure there's an edit function to click to manually choose the folder from the big drop down bookmarks menu. But. If you're not fast enough, like less than 2 secs, it will auto save to the folder u don't want it in.

Then u easily forget what folder that your new bookmark went to. Again, sure you can immediately go to the filled star on the page site, click that, muck around with editing so it lands in the correct folder.... Or other muck arounds.

But this is all just more clicks, supposed to be saving my time? Perhaps it's great for those in a work situ or with 100s of folders Idk.

I did manage to muck around with "Homepage" settings a some weeks ago to somehow disable that autosave or edit popup, to regain the more simple option of choosing my own folder when hitting the add new bookmark star.

Seemed to work for a while. But then after exiting the browser app on my phone, just one random day open Firefox & it defaulted back to this auto save popup. And although as I said I managed to fix it in settings for homepage, I just can't get it right now or no longer an option. Tired but not stupid old brain ha.

The oddest thing is although I manually update Firefox consistent & regularly, the last 2? versions i slacked off. Now this issue began way after the update of the current version I'm using!

If, & I'm hoping it will be a fix, just getting the latest version gives me the option or fix great. Currently on v133.1 i think. Otherwise, disappointed but will likely stick with Firefox still. Thanks kindly for the help or anything if any, anyone.

In the 2010s, before bigtech algorythms shadowbanned me to dust (online and offline) firefox was great. But after google's spooks (my half-sister but 1) and Silicon Valley algorythms, left to using Samsung phones and the (Google) android OS, using other than their chrome browser is impossible. Which says that such systems, device brands and forprofit bigtech corps are operating illegally, so need to have all their patents, rights, "permissions" and even rights to profit, revoked.

In my opinion....

With the Last version of Firefox android, i have the possibility to download pdf and when i want to open it with drive reader, it gives an error and stay in Firefox.

I have used Netscape for many years. And Thunderbird. I installed Mobile Thunderbird a few weeks ago on my Android phone, importing the settings from my desktop Thunderbird.

Everything work, just that ALL my sent messages disappear. They reach their destination, but I can’t see them in any sent folder on the phone. Is this a bug? I have checked, that «Subir los correos enviados» (= upload sent messages) is checked. It was already checked. I unchecked, sent mails, no change. Re-checked, sent mails, no change.

Ideas?

Also my «bandeja de salida» (outbox I think) is empty. Only my Sent and sent-mail folders have mails (one seems from the desktop thunderbird, the other from the webinterface).

The link from this Firefox in my phone to Google Play store download is not working. While using Firefox, my activities online at gaming sites notably Africabet.com have been manipulated via Firefox. My Google Account inFirefox have been manipulated through redirected links to fake pages of Google, MSN, Yahoo, Duckduckfo, PayPal, Payoneer etc OTP verification codes when I sign in to my Google account have been intercepted and the automatic redirect prompt intercepted. Firefox has been used to intercept OTP security codes from my Amazon KDP accounts and my Google Mail on Firefox has been manipulated either through delays on the app which make no sense when you use the website Firefox instead and then see the difference. I have lodged a complaint before and it looked as if the issue had been resolved only to resurface

I Thank you.

Created a HomeScreen shortcut for FB.

I also have my FF Theme set to dark and that works great from the main FF window but seems to be ignored from the window launched from home screen (and shows light, this is the case also when the theme is set to follow the device theme)

if there is a wayvy9nsetvgtheme for HomeScreen shortcuts it's not obvious how to do so

screenshots attached - Theme setting - The HomeScreen shortcut in question - FB as viewed from tab on main window - FB as viewed from HomeScreen shortcut

That was a useful feature, and we were still able to long press either buttons to navigate history on the fly, or refresh (if not using pull-to-refresh from the top of the page). And now it's gone, with no way to long press the NavBar back button for history, and we have to do an extra press on the 3 dot menu? What the heck gives!

Currently folders are sorted alphabetically and it doesn't appear that you can change that. This means that the Trash and Spam folders are way, way down in the list.

It would be better if you could manually override the alphabetic sort or if, by default, the Sent and Spam folders appear under the Outbox folder.

Hi

I'm wondering why you ignored Arabic language among other languages in your App. for translation from any other language especially English TO Arabic language

the users of your Browser Are so many users in Arab countries and Abroad

pls. consider adding ARABIC LANGUAGE
