Thanks for the report - is it possible for you to attach a log from the mobile device as outlined at http://160.twinql.com/how-to-file-a-good-android-sync-bug?

Thanks! Do you have a master-password configured on Firefox for Android? If so, that looks like bug 711636.

Yes, I do.

Thanks for getting back to us - unfortunately I've no idea of when we can expect to have bug 711636 fixed, so it appears your only option (but not a *good* option) at the moment is to not use a master-password on the Android device :(

Disabling Master Password on both mobile/desktop and syncing again yields the same results.

Aaron, are you able to help here, or can you suggest someone else who could. tl;dr - after disabling the master-password on Android the log is still showing:

> java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.Exception: PK11SDR_Encrypt returned error -8177: The security password entered is incorrect.
