How to make firefox default browser

When I try to access apps espn app for the droidx for ex. they are set to open with the stock browser. I would like them to open with firefox. How do I make this happen.

# Open the Android "Settings" app.
# Tap on "Applications" then "Manage Applications."
# Tap on the "All" tab, then find Browser and tap on it.
# Under "Launch by default" press the "Clear Defaults" button.
Now when you open a link, Android will ask which browser to use, and offer to set a new default.

how do I make Firefox my default browser

Make firefox default browser for all users without firefox checking for default browser

Hi,
we have 2 citrix servers in the same farm . We want to make firefox the default browser for all of our users.We also want to ignore the settings that they decide themselves influencing the default browser. 
Now the citrix forum suggested that i made a gpo that edits the folowing register keys:
HKCR\http\shell\open\command Change the value in the default key to firefox.exe location. 
HKCR\http\shell\open\ddeexec Change the value in the default key to Firefox HKCR\https\shell\open\command Change the value in the default key to firefox.exe location. 
HKCR\https\shell\open\ddeexec Change the value in the default key to Firefox
so i did that , and all our links now open through firefox. 
However we still get the question to make firefox our default browser while it already is defined as default browser since it opens links using firefox.
the 2nd strange thing we encountered is when we open pdf's using firefox , firefox opens but the pdf's won't open untill we make firefox default browser using the provided popup window when we start firefox 
i have googled this for days now without a proper answer . i even tried to run the "firefox.exe -silent -setDefaultBrowser" command to fix it on my personal profile without any luck.that's why i am relying on your answer

Just in case, check this article for the missing information

The akamai servers are used by a lot of web servers to store large files (e.g. images and media files)
A domain with fbstatic in it is likely a domain that is used by Facebook (fb), so you may have other problems if you stay on such a web page or get redirected
If you use extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) like Adblock Plus or NoScript or Flash Block that can block content then make sure that such extensions aren't blocking content.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] 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.

How can I make Firefox default browser for links in Earthlink emails? I have already verified that Firefox is my default browser, but clicking on links usually opens IE rather than Firefox.

Basically I have verified that Firefox is my default browser and it works great. Earthlink is my default email program. About 70% of the time when I click on a link in an Earthlink email it opens with Firefox, but the other 30% of the time it opens with IE, which I don't want to happen. Is there any way to fix this?

IE it tries to make itself default browser instead of Firefox

If a program starts IE it makes itself default browser. McAfee warns me and offers to change it back. Recent occurrence: I attempted to purchase Serif PagePlus updated version this started IE which then made itself default.

Click the Firefox button, then Options | Options | Advanced.
In the General tab, checkmark "''Always check to see if Firefox is the default browser on startup''" located in the System Defaults menu. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Options%20window%20-%20Advanced%20panel?as=u#w_general-tab General Tab | System Defaults]

How do I make Firefox default to home page when open new Tab?

When I open a new tab/window its blank. I have Firefox open to my home page Google, and I want the new tab/window to default open to that if I haven't chosen a web site to go to in the new Tab/window.
Is there a way to make Firefox default to the Google page when I open a new Tab/window and dont specify a web site to open to ?
I am using XP PRO x64 with firefox 4.0 and everything else works fine... my default home page is the Google search page.

Install this add-on: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/newtaburl/
After install and re-starting Firefox, go to Add-ons > Extensions, click Options next to New TabURL, set the options and/or enter the URL you want when you open a new tab, click Save.

Does not relate to your question, but...
You have multiple old Java Console extensions that Java did not clean-up during updates. You need Java Console only if you do Java programming/development or debug Java applets on web pages. You can see them in Add-ons > Extensions, '''''but you can not remove them from there'''''. Removing them will not affect the functioning of Java on websites. You can '''''manually''''' remove them, '''''if you do not do Java development work''''' to avoid future, possible problems/conflicts:

How to make Firefox to never update that slow custom look since FF 29?

How to make Firefox to never update that slow custom look since FF 29? How to change windows installation and ubuntu installation so they never update after FF 28 witch was last normal speed normal browser?
Hello. I can easy remove on Windows FF 29 or FF 30 and its slower on fast computer. But its affected by millions of users. With FF 28 it was allways fast.
Why fast? I dont know but its SLOW Now any version after FF 28.
Since FF 29 FF loads and hangs very very slow each time loading, starting, or changing tabs. It is making problem for everyone and now everyone calls with help- "why computer is slow.. oh its FF? Chrome? Chrome was slow but now its not the slowest one?"
Very colorfull Example- one comp is 10" and its very very very very low specs. So it wont run at all.
Now on small comp we can try linux and FF BUT no matter what OS just couldnt get back with any plugins back normal speed. Since FF 29 its very very very slow and that needs to have a solution. Today came update and still unneded custom menu button and its slowness hasnt been removed (unnoticed) so it needs a fix so it works for people who are not just for browsing internet buying new computer and cant get any faster speed then Chrome since now theres no FF anymore.
SO- How to do that on Windows and Linux- installing FF 28 and making it never upgrade
OR even better- Making a package that already has this update disbled setting ON?
p.s. Should you first ask people how they like slow browsers before making fast one to a slow one?
p.p.s. i dont get how menu could be added by thouse who need it as an add-on ass allways and not presuring everyone who never touches any button.
p.p.p.s. your business was beeing neutral ngo making browser for people and not for making cloged systems so new computers could be sold by some company advice or infiltrated mole who will suggest such unneded feature as any other addons, but sticking it in for everyone.

You can download version 28 from here:
