Firefox for android automatically downloads an IP app, very annoying. Please fix this.

As soon as I start browsing on firefox, it automatically downloads an IP app, doesn't install it, but the app just stays in my downloads folder. Happens every time. Please fix this.

The app is from https://marketplace.firefox.com/app/ip?src=search we auto update installed apps so is it possible that is was already or previously installed on the phone?
Menu button > tools > apps would show any installed WebApps.

  • How do I get Firefox for Android to download and install?

    I had Firefox installed on my Android tablet, an Asus TF300T. I was notified there was an update so I clicked to let in install. I avoid auto updates as I need to use a website that is always a couple of versions behind in compatibility. Well, the update would not download and I tried several times. It just seems to time out (error 495 is reported). I tried uninstalling Firefox to attempt a fresh install. This has worked with other apps that were being difficult when installing updates. Now I still can't get Firefox for Android to complete a download in order to get it installed. What's the deal with this latest version? I'd like to get Firefox back on my tablet but the options are extremely limited and frankly the amount of help on the website is also extremely limited. Any help would be appreciated.

  • Firefox for Android becomes painfully slow over time. Clearing data fixes, but erases bookmarks. Where is the "Reset" function ??

    After a fresh install, Firefox loads websites very fast with almost no lag. After a few weeks, it becomes slower and slower. Getting to the point where it wil take aboit 20 seconds to display the Top Sites/Bookmarks window. Then sometimes opening a page, the loading circle stops moving and it freezes the phone. After about 15 seconds everything works again. The only way I found to fix this horrendous problem is to go into control panel for Firefox and Clear Data. I dont like doing that because I lose all of my bookmarks. It seems the Cache always shows "0 bytes" so there never is nothing to clear out. I would like to know where this "Reset" function is for Android. I see they have it for Windows versions..but what about Android?
    My phone is an HTC Rezound running stock Android 4.0.3
    Thanks in advance.

    Bruce,<br/>whilst waiting for Roland to get back you may wish to try this
    Enter into the address bar ''about:memory'' you get interactive dynamic information about memory usage, and maybe also ''about:compartments'' .
    That should at least help you see where the memory is going to.

  • How do I get Firefox for Android to OPEN a document instead of Download it?

    I have an android tablet and am using a web application that has links to Word documents. I need this to be very simple for the end user. By default Firefox downloads the file (which is on a share on our server). The user then has to find it and open it - too many steps.
    I cannot find Tools/Options/Application as there is on the Windows version.

  • Please put Firefox for Android on Amazon's apps store.

    Many of us who develop Android apps are boycotting Google because of their new requirement for making our physical addresses public. This is an insane requirement! Please make Firefox for Android available on Amazon's app store, or better yet, make available here.

    Hi technoid,
    Firefox for Android is available at ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mobile/releases/32.0.3/

  • Hi, is there plans Firefox for Android to work with .p12 certificates like desktop versions for Windows, MAC and Linux?

    I used Firefox 26 at Android 4.2.1 and try to sign docs in bank application but receive a message ”window.crypto Error:undefined, TypeError: window.crypto.signText is not a function”.

  • I downloaded Firefox for Android on my Galaxy Tablet 7.0. The browser works fine when I first open it. When not in use and try getting bk on, nothing loads up.

    SAMSUNG GALAXY TAB 7.0
    I have downloaded Firefox for Android on my tablet and added some add ons. When first using the browser, it works great and loads up fast. Once I get off Internet and try getting back on at a later time(whether it be a minute or longer), I type in a Web page address and nothing loads up. How can I fix this.

  • How to view pdf files without downloading them on firefox for android

    I use an Electronic Medical Record program using Firefox for android on a a Samsung Galaxy Pro 12.2 tablet. I need to view patient pdf files on the tablet. So far, the only way I have been able to accomplish this is to download the file first. It would be more efficient if I could just view the pdf file on the Galaxy tablet without having to download it. Is it possible to do this with Firefox for android? Thanks.

    Not in any reliable manner. There is PDF.js but it has not been optimized for Firefox for Android. https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/#firefox

  • Is there a possibility to download files directly to the external usb drive in Firefox for Android?

    I have the Android device that support external usb hard drive, when I want to download some files via Firefox there are only two possible "places" where I can put the files - external memory or SD card. It will be nice if there would be an option to save file on ext. usb drive.

    Hi Nix_N1:
    Yeah I don't know about this and I don't have an Android device that supports USB storage.
    What Android device are you using and what operating system (Jellybean? Ice Cream sandwich ?)
    I asked the Mozilla QA folks and they said Firefox for Android uses the Android platform download directory so the USB drive *should* show up if it registers properly with Android.
    They suggested the following:
    # removing the SD card and seeing if it shows up in place of the SD card.
    # perhaps changing the following preference (type "about:config" in the url bar without the quotation marks)
    ''' browser.download.dir'''
    will fix it ('''WARNING:untested and unsupported but hopefully this might help''')
    Regardless I suggest filing a bug at (I looked but couldn't find a bug that corresponds to this):

    I was waiting to surf web with firefox from my phone for a long time. can anyone please let me know any known solution to it.

    The mobile version of Firefox for Android requires a processor that supports the ARMv7 architecture, the LG Optimus P500 does not meet that requirement, it supports the ARMv6 architecture.
