Details
From github: https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/fenix/issues/15352.
This bug has been reported several times (https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/fenix/issues/14737, https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/fenix/issues/13202, https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/fenix/issues/11552 and other closed issues) however none of them had a reliable way to trigger the bug, and it was practically irreproducible on an emulator. Here I present steps to reproduce it reliably on an emulator, so to avoid having this comment lost on one of the previous issues (as it has been with others) I decided to open a new issue.
Steps to reproduce
- REQUIRED: make sure the background process limit from the android developer options is set as 'no background processes'.
- Open this github (doesn't work with all pages, does work with this github repository)
- Enable desktop mode for the tab
- Press the recent apps button
- Open Firefox again
Expected behavior
The page should still be in desktop mode (or alternatively but not desired, go back to mobile mode with the desktop mode switch disabled)
Actual behavior
The page goes back to mobile mode but the desktop mode switch is kept enabled. Pressing it does nothing.
Device information
- Android device: Emulator 30.0.26-6755297 --- 8.1 (Oreo) - API 27
- Fenix version: debug 1.0.2039 (TrianguoY fork, master branch, no modifications) but can be reproduced in nightly since a few months ago at least.

Can repro this on 125.0, in private tabs of facebook. Pressing the Desktop site button just reloads.

This bug seems to be a duplicate of bug 1807154, which has been fixed in 136.0.0. Could you please check whether it is still reproducible in 136.0.0?

Desktop mode on Firefox for Android has received some changes recently. Desktop mode can now be toggled-on as a default for all newly-opened tabs, and Bug 1807154 fixed maintaining the physical state of the toggle between app launches.
Because of this, I'm closing the bug but please open up any new bugs if any weirdness around desktop browsing is encountered.
