I-Firefox ye-Android Community Forum

I used to have the https-only mode on, but I have since turned it because I'm unable to hit an http only site. However turning off this setting does not work. After disabling, I have tried disabling all extensions and forced an app restart, but I'm still being forced to https for a site I'm trying to use http for. I am not being forced in a private tab, so this makes me think that disabling https-only doesn't work anymore...

My browser has been infected with Porto sites that I have trying to remove, but they just returned through emails and web posts How do I permanently remove and block them?

So I have been hacked by somebody I'm pretty sure and I think you guys have found the link between us I would like to know how to get this taken care of so I can cut them off and get them off of my phone I need somebody's help as soon as possible thank you

Прошу припинити підтримку Firefox на Android 8/9.

Ці версії ОС більше не підтримуються та не отримують оновлень безпеки. Надання підтримки старим версіям створює ризики для користувачів (шкідливе ПЗ, викрадення даних, експлойти).

Це питання безпеки та відповідальності розробника, а не сумісності.

I keep getting devastating messages from Google warning me that my Android is corrupted with Virus's! If I don't allow them to CLEAN it, I may be REMOVED FROM THEIR SITE! This is not verbatim, but close! I'm an 85 year old disabled widow & need my phone badly! I'm scared they will remove me! HELP!

When I make a screenshot in private browsing the picture is black. With my former android there was no problem. Now I have a fairphone 6 and I can no longer make the screenshots in private browsing. Is there a solution fot this problem or do I need to switch to normal browsing whenever I want to make a screenshot?

I'm giving my old Galaxy S7 to a friend, I've got her a prepaid SIM and put it into the S7 (my own SIM has gone into a new S22). I've managed to set up the S7 to sync with her data via DAVx5, Thunderbird was easy to set up thanks to the QR-Code export, and various other things worked as expected.

BUT she uses firefox sync, and so do I. I deinstalled firefox on the S7, and reinstalled it, and changed to her sync account - but all my own personal data (bookmarks, chronology etc) are still there. That's not only really annoying, but also a breach of my private sphere.

Google KI tells me to give her sync account a new password, before doing that decoupling from sync on all used devices; we have five, so that would be a real pain. The only other option I see is a factory reset and then repeat all the work setting up the S7.

So what I'm asking for is an option when firefox is deinstalled, or as an extra option in the settings, to delete all stored personal data.

Hi,

Super cool site-isolation is now rolled out for Firefox Android!

I was checking the 'about:memory' and 'about:process' info pages and noted that there only seems two different processes for all tabs. As Firefox desktop achieves site-isolation via different processes per tab I was wondering if on my android device its correctly enabled. Can you elaborate if this is intended and how the site-isolation on android works?

Thanks!

Long story short, I want to view a link from a QR code, but I don't want to open it in Firefox itself. I fear that doing so would expose me to scams. So, I want the link prompt (deny or allow) to allow me to copy the url, so that I can paste it in a different browser.
