How to stop Firefox messages on home screen?

Since the last up-grade of Firefox for Android, I get unwanted pop-up messages at the foot of my browser 'Awesome' home page. the messages pretend to be helpful but they are just cheesy adverts for something or other e.g. 'Hey, if you want x, you should check-out y!' etc. I use Firefox because with an ad-blocker it cuts off most internet advertising. But the ad-blockers only stop adverts associated with websites. These adverts seem to be streamed from Mozilla. They infuriate me. I want them turned off.
Details - occurs on all of my Android devices (Samsung Galaxy 3 phone, Sony Xperia Z tablet, Onda v989 tablet). I have Android Kitkat on all devices. Firefox for Android 34.0 released 01/12/2014. My add-ons are Bluhell and Desktop by Default.

  • How can I turn off the home screen preview of SMS/text messages on 3GS

    How can I turn off the home screen preview of SMS/text messages on my new Iphone 3GS ?

    Go to Settings>Messages and choose "No" under "Show Preview" which will hide the text part of the SMS/text message but still will pop up on who its from and just says "text message" on it.
    Other than this there is not a complete way to disable the notification.

    How to remove items from iPad home screen?

    Press and hold any of the apps and after a couple of seconds or so they should start to shake. Then press the 'x' in the left corner to delete the ones that you don't want, and when you've finished deleting press the home button so as to stop the shaking. If you don't get the 'x' on any of the apps that you've downloaded (you can't delete built-in apps) then check that Settings > General > Restrictions > Deleting Apps isn't set 'off'

  • How to stop Firefox from checking for add-on compatibility every time it opens?

    How to stop Firefox from checking for add-on compatibility every time it opens?

    That can be a problem with the compatibility.ini file in the Firefox profile folder.
    Try to rename (or delete) the compatibility.ini file in the Firefox profile folder to see if that helps.
    You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
    *Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    You can also check for problems with preferences.
    Delete possible user.js and numbered prefs-##.js files and rename (or delete) the prefs.js file to reset all prefs to the default value including prefs set via user.js and prefs that are no longer supported in the current Firefox release.

  • Verizon iphone. how can i get to the home screen without activating it on a plan

    how can i get to the home screen without activating it on a plan

    Unless it is a 3rd party cord, there is no cord that just goes from the phone to the wall. However, you will need a cord that connects to the computer and the phone. The device is in recovery mode and you will need to restore it. See this support document for the instructions. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

  • How to launch firefox 4 in full screen mode

    hello, How to launch firefox 4 in full screen mode. I dont want to press SHIFT CMD F each time? thx

    There needs to a be a space before -fullscreen and that switch needs to be placed after the quotes
    *"C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -fullscreen
    But I don't think that it will work. Firefox 4 doesn't have that switch by default, so support should be added via an extension.

  • How do I restrict access to home screen during interactive slideshow?

    I want to set up a slideshow, of sorts, in which people can access a variety of pictures (some of which will have captions and info relating to content), easily navigate between them, and have the pictures in an organised format/a format that is easily navigated. The question I have, is how to make it so that people can't come out of the program/slideshow and into the home screen or anything else on the ipad. It will be part of an interactive display.
    Any help/info would be appreciated.
    Thanks

  • How to stop the message "press 1 for ..."

    Hello, while I'm at it...does anyone know how to stop the instructions that get attached to my outgoing voicemail message?  You know, the one that says, press 1 for __, press 2 for __, press * to send a fax.....in my old phone (also with Verizon) it didn't have that message. 
    Thanks all!

    I took this problem to a genius.  He removed the SIM card and added a new "blank" card from AT&T.  Using this SIM we went to setting an turned cellular data off.  Then we put the Apple SIM back in the machine.  Now you can turn off the cellular so you will no longer get the messages.  To end this practice, sign up with a carrier.  Just click the button in the Settings... menu.

  • How to display error message on the screen

    I am new to WD world and need all possible steps to resolve the following issue.
    I need to display the error message on the screen if any required field is empty when user click on SAVE button.
    I have set the attribute GO_MESSAGE_MANAGER and check the both box for  PUBLIC and REFTO and set the associated type IF_WD_MESSAGE_MANAGER under COMPONENTCONTROLLER.
    Under the method of COMPONENTCONTROLLER set the value WD_THIS-GV_NAV_FORBIDDEN = IV_NAV_FORBIDDEN. Which is type IMPORTING of associated type WDY_BOOLEAN.
    GV_NAV_FORBIDDEN has been set to attribute WDY_BOOLEAN in the COMPONENTCONTROLLER.
    Under the ACTION (on SAVE button) of my default view (VW_DEFAULT) I am doing the following.
    IF lv_f_name IS INITIAL
        CALL FUNCTION 'BALW_BAPIRETURN_GET2'
          EXPORTING
            type   = 'E'
            cl     = 'HRRCF0002'
            number = '020'
          IMPORTING
            return = ls_return.
        lv_message = ls_return-message.
    NEED TO PUT CODE TO PASS IT ON
    ENDIF.

    The thing I can not figure out is the input parameter of this call. My CONTEXT has a node1->node2->node3->f_name.
    CALL METHOD lo_message_manager->report_attribute_error_message
      EXPORTING
        message_text              = lv_message
        element                   = HOW WIILL YOU FIND THE VALUE OF THIS
        attribute_name            =
       params                    =
       msg_user_data             =
       is_permanent              = ABAP_FALSE
       scope_permanent_msg       = CO_MSG_SCOPE_CTXT_ELEMENT
       msg_index                 =
       cancel_navigation         =
       is_validation_independent = ABAP_FALSE     .
    wd_comp_controller->set_navigation_forbidden( iv_nav_forbidden = abap_true ).

  • How to stop Firefox incessantly interrupting my work by trying to install an update incompatible with the Google toolbar which I depend on.that does nor

    Dear Sirs,
    How can I stop Firefox from incessantly interrupting my work by trying to install an update that is incompatible with the Google toolbar which I depend on. Not knowing any better, I trustingly allowed the installation the first time the update notice appeared. It crippled my Internet routines. The toolbars did not work and the bookmarks as well as all the history entries were lost, I have had to reinstall my previous Firefox 4.0.1 and start all over again.

    Hi chib60,
    Sorry you are having so much trouble.
    Dealing with your last comment first ''"Copy and paste the information from Help > Troubleshooting Information." Why? How? This is ridiculous info - it has no logic or sense to it like most of your advice. ''
    If you look to the right you will see a link for 'more system details' that is where such troubleshooting information appears, and it can sometime be helpful.
    I am using firefox on a couple of old XPs without problems. Obviously crashing is not expected behaviour, but please try to think of firefox as two separate parts the basic browser and all the additional software as addons and plugins.
    It may be rather unrewarding trying to track down the cause of a crash using crash information, the best way forward is probably to start using it in[[safe mode]] and with no plugins installed.
    * see also [[basic troubleshooting]]
    If firefox is recommended by your university, why not try it out on one of their computers, presumably it is installed on the university computers available in the library etc, that should at least convince you that it does work.
    I hope the problem is not malware, but if it is all the personal computers you try, a possibility that can not be discounted is that it is some form of malware affecting those computers.
    Have you tried Internet Explorer, that will be installed on your XP by default I imagine, does that work ?
