Bug in firefox beta four Android

hi,
I have a nexus 7 2013 and when I search something on Google if my tablet is in landscape mode the result show half the page, like if it was only made for phone.
I tried switching the tablet from landscape to portrait and vice versa but it doesn't change

How to exctract/backup a client certificate from Firefox for Android similar to question #1000240 but for the latest Firefox Beta for Android?

As in #1000240 and in #1032181, I've installed a StartSSL login certificate in my Firefox for Android and having a problem with extracting/backuping it to use with another device/browser.
I'm using the latest Firefox Beta for Android (35.0) at present; the Android version is 4.1.2, my phone model is Sony LT26i (Xperia S), so neither of the aforementioned questions asked at the Mozilla Support website do not contain any solution to the given problem.
Any chance to recover the certificate?
P. S. I haven't rooted my device; if getting a root is the only possible way to recover the certificate, I may consider doing so.

You can try https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/android/addon/copy-profile/ If that does not retrieve the file then see below.
If you know the name and path of the file you can get it using run-as function of adb. See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18471780/android-adb-retrieve-database-using-run-as
If you end up down here you'll need root to be able to navigate the file system. I don't know the file name, though it is likely in your profile folder which can be determined by visiting about:cache in the Firefox address bar. It will be similar to /data/data/org.mozilla.firefox_beta/files/mozilla/$RANDOM.default/

Using KineticJS in Firefox causes memory leak (page works good in all other browsers, including Firefox Beta for Android)

Hi,
You can visit http://brandy.pararuk.com and see just 15 flying comets animated with KineticJS library.
When I run it (viewing Windows Task Manager) I see that firefox.exe consumes 100Mb of memory every second up to full avaliable memory and hangs on Windows.
I've tested this page also on desktop with: Chrome, Safari, IE9 and on my Android tablet with: Firefox Beta, Chrome and Android browser - page works good everywhere, except of desktop Firefox.
Thank you for help.

Did you try to disable extensions like Firebug?
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

I know there is a bug with the new firefox 3.6.14 and how Java operates. I've un-installed 3.6.14 and re-installed 3.6.13 Does the Firefox Beta 4 have the prob that 3.6.14 has? When will firefox updates fix this Java bug?

Under tools options for the 3.6.14 there is no tab to enable java, only java scripts. There was an add- on for Java that automatically downloaded that may be part of the problem. I' also updated to Java 1.6.0.24,- is that may be part of problem. The Pogo.com website will not load certain games.
My biggest question is whether the Firefox beta 4 is safe(er) to use, and/or does it have other and perhaps worse bugs that have not been worked out.

Firefox 3.6.15 fixes that problem with Java.
Use Help > '''Check for Updates''' to get 3.6.15.

Firefox Beta quits on my android. no crash - just quits - is there a fix for this yet?

This thread is apparently abandoned by the support people.
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1026282#answer-643651
so I'm starting it again with some details from the other thread...
Galaxy S4 Model ISGH-M919 Android 4.2.2 Baseband M919UVUAMDL Kernel 3.4.0-453951 se.infra@SEP-133 #1 Fri Apr 26 16:55.54 KST 2013 Build JDQ39.M919UVUAMDL-iwireless1.2 SELinux status permissive
on 10/16/14 started quitting on any website. no crash notice. App just quits. uninstalled on 10/17/14 and reinstalled with no add-ons from Google Play Store No change - Firefox runs as long as it is not connected to the web. Shows history - bookmark - etc. Soon as it connects on the internet it quits. Connecting via wireless network. I have uninstalled it so I can use the internet
I got this suggestion but was unable to duplicate all the steps...
Ok so I tried this finally and got it to work: this might be long but a shortened version:
. Connect the device to the computer via usb.
2. In android settings go to About device and double tap on build id 7 times
3. Go back and now see the developer menu
4. Open and enable remote debugging
5. Open up Firefox on the android go to settings > devloper tools and check remote debugging
6. From Desktop go to Tools > Connect
7. Open Tools > Console
8. Click on gear and on the far right click on "Remote debugging for this session only"
9. [adb sdk install required] in a terminal window
adb devices
make sure a device is listed.
10. On desktop in the window that openned up when you opened up connect click on connect
11. Immediately after run this in the terminal:
adb forward tcp:6000 localfilesystem:/data/data/org.mozilla.firefox/firefox-debugger-socket
12. On the device hit enable on the connection
13. should be connected on the connect and click on the remote tabs.
14 the logs will start to show up in the console.
15. If you need adb log cat logs run in the terminal before you start to test:
adb logcat > text.txt
do you thing, and attach it to a bug.
Here was my response:
I'm getting lost on #6 What "Tools" are you talking about?
I am using a laptop btw. Windows 8.1
Thanks
This is where it stopped... some fool got on that thread and was being obnoxious - so I hope we can start fresh here.

Hi,
The "Tools" are in the old drop down menu, which are not shown by default in the new Firefox Design. To show this menu:
Firefox Menu > Customize
On the bottom left there will be Show/Hide Toolbars. The Menu will be listed here.

# Type "proxy.http" into the search box on the about:config page.

Firefox Mobile for Android download link = FAIL... Yeah it doesn't work....

I've tried to download the beta with my phone, with firefox, and with IE. The link is broken, or non existent... I've tried it for about two weeks now.

The link to download Firefox from the Android Market will not work on phones with incompatible hardware. You can check if your phone is compatible here:
https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Platforms/Android
Even on some supported devices, a bug in the Market software prevents Firefox from showing up. This may be related to the fairly recent Android Market app update. If you go to Settings/Applications/Market and choose "Uninstall" you can uninstall the update, and then search for and install Firefox from the marketplace.
Or, if you have a supported phone, you can download the app directly from here:
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mobile/releases/4.0b3/android-r7/multi/
(Note: To download the app directly for an AT&T phone, you will have to search for instructions on "sideloading" the APK file, since AT&T disables the option to install from non-Market sources.)

When using firefox beta can not enter text into reply areas on forums.

When visiting vbulletin type sites, the firefox beta will not enter text into the message reply text box. Seems to be only a problem on honeycomb os.

This sounds like a known bug in Firefox 4: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=624163
We have a fix ready for this bug. The fix will be included in an upcoming version of Firefox. If you want to help us test the fix today, you can download a pre-release version from the "Aurora" channel here: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Platforms/Android#Download_Aurora

Firefox Crash after Android 5 update

I have 'Samsung Galaxy Tab 2' upgraded to CyanogenMod 12 android 5.0.2. After this the app crashes every time I open it. I checked on other phones, and other phones also with Android 5 are suffering with the Sam problem..Please help!

hello Cleanaeronstone72, it might be related to this bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1140830
there's a fix in the pipeline so make sure that you check the next few versions of firefox beta once they get released...

I installed firefox beta 5 and flash crashed on every page so i reverted back to firefox 4 and now flash crashes on every page of firefox 4. how can i fix it?

Ever since i installed firefox 5 beta and the new version of flash, flash crashes on every page with flash on it no matter what version of firefox i run, and flash wont let me roll back to another version. I need flash for my work which is due by the end of the day so any help yall can offer is appreciated.

well i fixed this for a bit by reinstalling ff4 and restarting but now the firefox 4 that i re-downloaded continues to very aggressively update itself to 5 beta without asking me. it just notifies me once its done it telling me to restart and once i close firefox, boom. flash crashes every minute or so and freezes my computer. I love firefox. i have used it for years. but if no one can help with this problem or at least tell me how to stop firefox 4 from updating to firefox beta 5 im gonna go download something else because im losing money fighting with firefox to get my work done which is now taking 10 times longer to complete. i really want to keep using firefox but this is kinda ridiculous guys... I understand that betas have bugs but dont make me use it without asking me first...

Firefox beta 35 not ready for prime time.

I have spent the entire weekend trying to get the Firefox beta 35 to work. What I have found is that *all* extensions fail to work with the exception of Places Maintenance. I can not download any extension Firefox is so famous for. The error is something like "cannot install 'plugin-name' in it's current state." Enabling any extension require a FF restart, even Places Maintenance. Trying to remove an extension fails and must be done manually.
I am on Windows 7 Premium desktop Firefox, 32 bit. I "committed" myself to FF 35 last night (which meant clearing history and cache on exit because the extension "Expire History by Days" was no longer working), when I discovered that 35 was not playing nice with some sites using Flash. It was a capricious thing. Many sites worked as normal but some would not render at all. Examples:
http://www.wunderground.com/US/WI/La_Crosse.html
http://www.weather.com/weather/5day/l/Hustler+WI+54637:4:US
First time I have has a problem with a Firefox beta, but it is definitely not ready for prime time. I realize FF is attempting to get away from what we are calling "Proprietary add-ons" but FF 35 in its present state will just fill the Moz Support forums with millions of complaints (guess I am one of the first). I have at present 1 extension (the only one that works on 35), the above mentioned "Places Maintenance."
I thought you might like this report as "user input." God knows I have tried...I must have downloaded 35 at least a dozen times and then been forced back to 34.0.5. So I am back on 34.0.5
I have submitted a bug report here:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1108196
Let me know if anyone else is having these problems or anyone needs more information. I'd love to help fix this. I know some of you good support people have probably tried 35. Are you having the same difficulties?

Just for the record I'm using Fx35b1 with lots of plug-ins and extensions with absolutely no problems now or for quite a long time.

Where can I get an APK file to install Firefox Beta? I don't use Google Play.

I'd like to test Firefox Beta but I can't seem to find a direct link to download the APK installer. It seems to be only available from Google Play but I prefer not to use proprietary software on my devices. My test devices are Galaxy SIII and Kobo Arc if that matters.
Thanks in advance for any information about this.

Thank you for the detailed replies. I was under the impression updates would be handled like Aurora APKs, it's useful to know they won't.
I have [https://f-droid.org/forums/topic/firefox-beta/ submitted Firefox Beta to F-Droid] hoping it can be managed automatically via its Android app.
If a Firefox Beta developer can help in this process more details [https://f-droid.org/forums/topic/read-this-before-posting/#post-11918 more details can be found here].

Do i need to have Firefox and Firefox beta at thr same time?

i downloaded Firefox 9 but i want Firefox beta do i need to have both on my Android ?

Hi,
No, you can just have Firefox Beta on your Android.
-Michelle

I have downloaded firefox beta version on my galaxy y it shows that it installed on memory card but it occupy space on my internal memory why?

when the application shows 2.3 mb data and 20 mb other data stored on memory card why my 24 mb internal memory occupied by firefox beta.
why is it so big when opera mini is so small and efficient.
is it works on downloading like ucweb does.

hello atuljains, unlike opera mini firefox for android is a full-fledged browser and contains its own rendering engine. firefox uses as little RAM and storage as possible but there are limits & its requirements are similar to those of other full browsers like chrome or opera (not the mini version).

Running Firefox beta on nexus 7..4 the last two days O/S crashes using various websites..is there a fix?

running Firefox beta on Google nexus 7 with android v.4.4.2 with no issues until the last two days.
Various websites like Facebook, CTV.ca, any and many while running on Firefox will freeze up, and then crash.
most annoying!
Is there a fix for this, or do I have to uninstall and reinstall Firefox?
thanks for your kind assistance!
