Firefox for Android
Steps to reproduce:
I have Firefox installed on Windows XP, FreeBSD, Linux (Kubuntu) desktops, and Android.
Actual results:
The Android device has passwords that are not sync'd with the desktop OS'. I noticed it when replacing the Android device with another, which forced a new installation.
The desktop installations have occurred at different times. Before and after the Android installation, with the exception of Windows XP, which I haven't changed at all since support was discontinued.
I don't seem able to force a password sync that synchronises everything.
Expected results:
I expect the same set of passwords on all installations of Firefox.
I do not expect to loose passwords on a sync.

Hi there! There have been a slew of bugs affecting password syncing between Android and Desktop, and we've been tracking them in bug 1073680; I'll go ahead and dupe this over. Unfortunately, with all mobile folks busy working on Firefox Preview (Fenix), Android Sync is in maintenance mode, so I can't provide a timeline of when that bug will be fixed. Thanks very much for taking the time to file the issue, and apologies I don't have a better answer for you.
