1003555 - app installation fails silently on devices without SD cards

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: Web Apps (PWAs), defect, P2)

Description

If your device doesn't have an SD card (neither physical nor virtual), then app installation fails silently.  Fennec should instead notify you that it can't install the app without an SD card (just like it notifies you that it can't download a file without an SD card).

Fortunately, virtually all Android devices have SD cards these days, even if they're only virtual ones, so this problem should be rare.

Per bug 1235869, we're going to disable the Android web runtime, so we won't fix this bug in it.

(This is part of a bulk resolution of bugs in the Firefox for Android::Web Apps component, from which I attempted to exclude bugs that are not specific to the runtime, but it's possible that I included one accidentally.  If so, I'm sorry, and please reopen the bug!)
