Firefox mobile installed on Dell Streak5 running Android 2.3.3, but font is hieroglyphics

Just downloaded and installed Firefox mobile on my Dell Streak5, running Android 2.3.3. Appears to have installed ok but the font or language is not English. It looks like hieroglyphics with just symbols, fractions, arrows, etc.

I have the same problem. The system font is not readable. it looks like a symbol font. I try to change the language in preference but the only language that is readable (written not in symbols) is Russian - Cyrillic and again the system font is like symbols. When I try to write some site URL in English it appears in symbols but the site is opening correctly.

  • I have a Driod Eris with 2.1 software, Why won't Firefox mobile install?

    The app store online has the app but will not install, and the same site from my device can't find it

    Unfortunately I can see from the specifications that it has armv6 which is an architecture that is not supported by Firefox. Only android devices with armv 7 and greater can install Firefox Mobile.
    Also it is mentioned here : https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Platforms/Android so follow the bug entered to see when build will be available.

  • Firefox Mobile available for those with no Android Market

    Seems the article [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/install-firefox-mobile#os=android&browser=m6 "How do I install Firefox on a mobile device?" ] requires Android Market.
    FYI: "Android Market" is only available with Google's GMS (Google Mobile Services) kit, and only for those devices Google has had the opportunity to approve. In addition there are limitations from which countries developers are allowed to publish and sell applications via Android Market.
    Android being Open Source, is probably used on just as many non-certified by Google devices.
    There are reputable alternative Marketplaces that power such devices ranging from tablets, Android TV's, E-book readers, etc that come preloaded (or for users download) such as the [http://slideme.org/sam "SlideME Market (SAM)" ]. Any reason, (beyond the effort it takes to stock the apk onto other stores) why Firefox Mobile for Android could not be on such stores, including Amazon Appstore (another reputable, but limited to US only)?

    Firefox makes use of a lot of the features that the Android market has such as access to select devices (only ARMv7 + 512mb RAM), provides updates, and collecting Java crash data. If someone has a device that meets the minimum specs and wants to deal with updating Firefox themselves Firefox mobile can be found on the ftp.
    Due to the above reasons and others I'm forgetting 3rd party markets are not a high priority.

  • How do I 'Open all in tabs' from a bookmark folder, in Firefox mobile? I am using an android tablet.

    One of the best things about firefox on my desktop is the way I could group bookmarks into folders per subject or task,then open them all in tabs. On my Asus tablet I can see my desktop bookmark folders, but I don't see how to open them all in tabs. Also, is there a way to put a bookmark button somewhere, instead of going through the homepage?

    It is not a default feature of Firefox mobile. Sounds possible via an extension. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/mobile/ Though anything more than 3-5 would cause some performance problems while the pages are downloaded. If a large number were selected there is a good chance that all the memory on the tablet would be exhausted and Firefox would be killed by Android.

  • Cannot get upgraded App to move into App folder. Every time I open Firefox, the install program tries to run again.

    I upgraded to FF 8.0 but have been unable to get the App to copy over to the App folder. It asks me if I want to overwrite the existing file of the same name. When I try, it tells me it cannot because certain items had to be skipped. It tells me to go to File<Get Info and make sure "Locked" is deselected and that the permissions are all set correctly. However, it does not tell me what these "Items" so I can check them. I have tried to eject the Firefox disk as well as move it to the trash but, no matter what I do, as soon as I open the browser again, the disk pops back up on my desktop and the Application copy window opens back up.

    Make sure that Firefox gets installed properly.<br />
    Open the Firefox disk image (DMG) file and drag the Firefox program to the application folder on your hard drive.<br />
    You shouldn't double-click the Firefox application to run it from the disk image, but drag it out of the DMG folder instead.

  • Firefox is installed...likewise Adobe Reader....but I cannot get them together to view the many things that require them to cooperate

    Finally Firefox has allowed Adobe Reader to be installed....but I still cannot use AR to view
    the parts of sites which require it.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == a couple of weeks ago when I could no longer visit some site

    When I open emails with PDFs I click on the attachment (doing this all on my iPad) it gives me the option to "open in iBooks", I accept then after that the document is sucked into my iPad but I can't do anything with the PDF after that.  Where is the actual file on my iPad? Why can't I email or send these PDFs to my cloud (Dropbox)?
    It's like once they go into iBooks they're stuck forever.

  • I am looking for Microsoft Media Player plugin for Firefox for Mobile, where can I find it for download and installation on my Samsung S2 Mobile phone running Android (2.3.3)

    I am not able to watch web videos on my mobile phone firefox browser (version 6.0) and running Android 2.3.3 Gingerbread.

    There is no such plugin for any Android browser. I doubt Microsoft will ever make one. The best chance you have is if the site provides a direct link to the file and you download it. You then might be able to play the file with one of the media players on the phone.

  • Installing Flash Player on Samsung Galaxy Tab2 10.1 running Android 4.2.2

    I need Flash Player on my Samsung Galaxy Tab2 10.1 running Android 4.2.2, but I'm getting a message that it's not supported on my device.  Why is it not supported?

    Your tablet (Kindle or Galaxy) uses the Android Operating System.
    Adobe stopped ALL development of Flash for Android last year. (July 2012) That includes Kindle as well as Samsung Tablets. Additionally, Samsung and Amazon have ended support for Flash in ALL of their newest tablet models.
    The following is from Samsung Support (07/31/2013):
    "Beginning August 15, 2012 we will use the configuration settings in the Google Play Store to limit continued access to Flash Player updates to only those devices that have Flash Player already installed. Devices that do not have Flash Player already installed are increasingly likely to be incompatible with Flash Player and will no longer be able to install it from the Google Play Store after August 15th, 2012."
    And from Kindle Support (07/31/2013):
    "The Amazon Silk web browser on Kindle Fire 1st Generation supports some, but not all, versions of Flash. Adobe Flash is pre-installed on a 1st Generation Kindle Fire and is disabled by default.
    If you see a message to install Flash while using your Kindle Fire, this means that the content you're attempting to view uses Flash. If you want to view the content, you'll need to enable Flash through the Silk settings menu.
    If a web page suffers from slow performance due to Flash, or you're unable to view a web page with Flash enabled, we recommend switching to mobile view when browsing a Flash-heavy website to see if that solves your problem:
    Some popular websites may also have an app available. Check Amazon Appstore, accessible through the Apps library on your Kindle Fire, for availability.
    The Amazon Silk web browser on Kindle Fire 2nd Generation, Kindle Fire HD 7", and Kindle Fire HD 8.9" doesn't support Flash.
    Some sites use alternative web technologies to Flash in their mobile versions. We recommend switching to mobile view when browsing a website with Flash content to see if that solves your problem:
    Some popular websites may also have an app available. Check Amazon Appstore, accessible through the Apps or Games library on your Kindle Fire, for availability."
    See: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions. html
    There are older versions of Flash Player (for Android) at that link, but there are no guarantees any of them will work.
    See also: "How do I manually install Flash Player on my Android device?"
    You can find info about "Dolphin" for Android at: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.mgeek.TunnyBrowser It seems to be the browser of choice to play Flash content on an Android device.
    Also, check the Android forums to see what their "gurus" recommend.

  • Ps touch on my Samsung tab2 7.0 running android 4.0.4

    you should try to install our 1.4.1 version, it should support your device.

  • Hey i dont have a mobile phone i have toshiba "laptop" to say this way and i cannot install firefox becuase this laptop runs android and cannot install linux version...can u help me?Also i cant install adobe flash player...Any advices??

    Hey I have a toshiba laptop and I cannot install firefox because the laptop runs android and there's only version for linux...and if u can tell me how to install adobe flash player too...Any advices??

    This is a known problem, but we don't have a solution for it. If your device has the Toshiba Market app, you might be able to download a (possibly outdated) version of Firefox from there.

  • TS1717 Having trouble running iTunes version 11.0.2 on a Dell Laptop running Windows 7 Professional Service Pack 1.  Keep getting an error message "the software required for communicating with iPods and mobile phones was not installed correctly..." reinst

    Having trouble when I launch iTunes (version 11.0.2) on my Dell Laptop running Windows 7 Professional (service pack 1).  I get an error message indicating software required to communicate with iPod and mobile phones was not installed correctly.  Do you want iTunes to try to repair this for you?  I normally respond with OK and it immediately tells me "could not be repaired.  Please reinstall iTunes..."  I have done this a number of times to no avail.

    I also notice Quicktime is not getting installed at all.
    That one is normal nowadays (ever since the iTunes versions 10.5.x).
    The software required for communicating with iPods and mobile phones was not installed correctly. Do you want iTunes to try to repair this for you?
    Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
    (If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
    Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you?
    If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • Firefox Mobile 4 beta 3 (and pre-beta 4) fails to install on Archos 101 Tablet using Android 2.1 Eclair with no specific error.

    Firefox Mobile 4 beta 3 (and pre-beta 4) fails to install on Archos 101 Tablet using Android 2.1 Eclair with no specific error. Is this a know issue or has someone been able to successfully install?

    Sorry, we haven't tested Firefox on this device yet, and we aren't sure why it isn't working. If anyone (especially with Android development experience) would like to help us debug this problem, please start by creating an account and submitting a bug report at: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/
    Thanks for the report.

  • Im trying to install iTunes on my friend's Dell XPS, running windows vista ultimate (32-bit), but whenever I reach the end of the install, it pops up with an error telling me:   "Service 'Apple Mobile Device' (Apple Mobile Device) could not be instal

    Trying to install iTunes on my Laptop, running windows 7 (64-bit), but whenever I reach the end of the install, it pops up with an error telling me:
    "Service 'Apple Mobile Device' (Apple Mobile Device) could not be installed. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to install system services"

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for performance issues or compatibility with third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • I cannot install FF Mobile into my LG P505R with Android 2.2...why????

    I cannot install FF Mobile into my LG P505R with Android 2.2...why????

    In general there are two classes of CPUs in Android devices ARMv6 and ARMv7. Firefox requires ARMv7 devices. If you don't see Firefox in the Android market then you are likely on an ARMv6 device.
    In the future we hope to provide a solution that allows Firefox to run on ARMv6.

  • Firefox Mobile doesnt install on my Motorola Dext.

    Firefox Mobile doesn't install on my Motorola Dext, i've download the ARMv6 that might run on my mobile but not. What can i do?

    What Android version is running on your phone? Firefox for Mobile needs Android 2.0 or higher. Wikipedia suggests that the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motorola_CLIQ phone runs Android 1.5].
