Will Firefox 13 for Android be Released?

Will Firefox 13 on Android get released? The reason I ask is because for some strange reason, the stable version in the Google Play store is still at version 10 (pretty old now).
I want to have the best features in Firefox, so I hope 13 will get released and not overlooked like what happened in 12 or 11.
Version 10 is also pretty slow, hence the reason I want to upgrade.

Thanks for your response. It seems that Firefox 13 is available now to [http://example.com download ]in beta from Google Play, so (fingers crossed!) perhaps it may be available as stable in June?

Will Firefox for Android work on my Le Pan android tablet?

Possibly, it meets all the minimum specifications. Does the device have the Android market?
If not you can get Firefox manually at http://bit.ly/fennecftp Note there is no updater in this build so to stay safe and get the performance improvements you will need to check the link for new releases (every 6 weeks).

Firefox for Android will not play mp3

Hi! Why does Firefox for Android will not play mp3? For example the tracks on this page do not play http://audiobook-online.com/?page_id=33 . Firefox for windows plays mp3.
Alexander

Hello,
I've just tested and the mp3s on that page work fine for me. When I first visited the site I see a prompt at the top of the screen: "This page contains plugin content. Would you like to enable plugins".
I clicked Activate and the audio played fine.
If the pop-up doesn't appear then you can try enabling plugins across all pages. See here:
[[How do I watch Flash videos with Firefox for Android?|Play Flash Content Without Tapping]]
But be aware that there are security implications with this option. It is safer to keep flash as tap-to-play. There is more information on this in the article.
I hope that helps.

If I update to new Firefox Synch, will I loose data in Firefox for Android?

My laptop was recently stolen, it had Firefox with the old version of Synch. I still have my Android with Firefox and Synch set up. On my new laptop, I am not able to synch my bookmarks and data because it has the new version of Firefox Synch. If I go through the process of disconnecting Synch accounts and re-synching my data between browsers as directed in support solutions, will I loose the data that is still in my Firefox for Android? How can I recover my data from the old Synch account so that my Firefox data is restored on my new laptop?

''kbrosnan [[#answer-712654|said]]''
<blockquote>
Sync accounts do not affect your profile data. You can safely switch between the two of them. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-to-update-to-the-new-firefox-sync
</blockquote>
The instructions that you refer to say "in order to create a Firefox account and sign in to the new Sync you'll have to unlink all of your current devices from the old version of Sync." If I set it up with the same email address as before, will it maintain the original data (bookmarks, etc) and Synch all of that on all the devices?

Firefox for Android will not install on my Sansung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1.

Anybody else having problems using alt+ANY_OTHER_KEY in Firefox for Android?

I am using Verizon Droid (original) with Froyo, unrooted.
Currently even with alt pressed, I am getting the original character (in white on the keyboard), not the alt character (in yellow on the keyboard).
I noticed this occurring when I tried to enter my Firefox Sync username/password.

There's a bug in Firefox for Android that means you need to hold the ALT key down *while* pressing the number key (unlike other Android apps where you can release the ALT key before pressing the next key). Does this work for you?
We will fix the bug in a future release, so that the keyboard will work just like in other Android apps.

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 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/

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):

How do I disable the tab with 'Firefox for Android' advertisement ? It is freaking me out

Every time I open the Firefox browser, a new tab opens up with the ad suggesting me to try Firefox for android mobile. This is additional tab along with my regular home tab. My browser version is Firefox funnel cake 22.0 . It is freaking me out as this happens every time I open the browser. Provide me a solution or tell me to switch to a different browser. I mean who is the dumb idiot who suggested this idea ? Really ?? you want the add to stay there and irritate users everytime they open it ?

Try to change your new tab by going to about:config, and in that address bar type in browser.newtab.url, right click it, and then hit modify. There will be a window that pops up that will let you type in the address you want to show up in your new tabs. There also might be a warning when going to about:config, but just accept it if it's there.

Why won't Firefox for Android on my Kindle Fire HD play YouTube videos?

The default browser (Silk) on the Kindle Fire HD plays YouTube videos. Both Firefox for Android and Silk obviously use the same operating system and hardware. What needs to be done to/with the Firefox for Android browser so that it will play YouTube videos. Firefox on my desktop machine plays YouTube videos.

There is the old insecure Flash 11.1 Plugin that Adobe (and Google Play) has not supported since Android 4.0. As long as you have Android 4.3 or older then you can get the Flash plugin to work in manual install though Android 4.4 has made it so Flash will not work.
However Mozilla has made a workaround for Flash can still work in Firefox on Android 4.4 in as early as Firefox 27.0 if I recall.
There is this thread on getting Flash installed however the poster mentions Dolphin and not Firefox instead.
http://www.amazon.com/forum/kindle?_encoding=UTF8&cdForum=Fx1D7SY3BVSESG&cdThread=TxTR71JR4GVXQM
Not that some sites (News sites are among some I encountered) have since lately been requiring users using Flash 11.1 on Android, PlayBook and Flash 11.2.x on Linux to upgrade to more current (not possible) to view their Flash videos.

Why are web developer tools not available on Firefox for Android?

I do some freelance web design. I just replaced my laptop with a tablet last year (Samsung Galaxy 10.5 S). I want to do web development on it - I work from a terminal doing Ruby on Rails and web development all the time. It would be awesome to have the F12 developer tools handy in Firefox for Android, but sadly I've waited for a while and there is no indication they will ever appear.
Do NOT suggest using a remote debugger - I'm not testing the layout of pages on my tablet, I want to be able to profile, view source (without an add-on) and such. I have seen this exact question marked closed by suggesting remote debugging, and I fail to see how telling me to use my tablet next to a laptop or desktop is a solution. Telling me to carry a second device means I don't need the tablet at all, when my intention is to ONLY use the tablet.
My tablet has a huge screen resolution and a powerful processor - more powerful than some laptops? Why is Firefox for Android neutered? I would understand disabling it by default to help those with less powerful devices, but why remove something that would add a competitive edge to your product, and is already integrated in desktop Firefox and has been for years? I prefer Firefox, but if Chrome adds web developer tools for Android first, I'll switch to Chrome.
There are people today using a tablet as their sole computing device. Please do not relegate us to a second-class Firefox experience!
Thanks,
Ryan

Hi Ryan:
Thanks for the developer tools feature request
This is a user support forum not a developer tools forum therefore I am locking this thread.
Please file your developer tools feature request on the developer tools uservoice at:

How to rearrange (sort) tabs in Firefox for Android?

On Firefox for Android, is it possible to rearrange or sort open tabs? On Chrome for Android, it is a simple drag and drop process. I've spent way too much time trying to figure this out and, so far, it does not seem possible to me (which I find hard to believe).

HI, Sorry right now, firefox don't have that option.
You can provide your feedback, so it will helpful to add this features to upcoming firefox version

How to install a certificate on firefox for android?

Hello, I have a few certificates that are required in my sign in from my bank. The only browsers supported are Firefox and IE. On android there is no option for installing or choosing a certificate during the sign in or before that. How can I fix that?

Thank you for the reply and the link given. Unfortunately, in terms of security i´m not sure that adding this will fix my problem, having in mind that is preliminary reviewed, i doubt that might create a new problems for me. Speaking of high security the things are a bit more complicated. I hope that in the future versions of Firefox for Android, such problems wont occur. Thank you once again for the support.
