Does not seem to occur on Droid 2 on Mozilla/5.0 (Android; Linux armv71; rv2.0b12pre) Gecko/20110210 Firefox/4.0b12pre Fennec/4.0b5pre.

Ioana, can you retry this bug to see if it still occurs please?

Yes, It still reproduces on HTC Desire build id : Mozilla/5.0 (Android; Linux armv71; rv2.0b12pre) Gecko/20110215 Firefox/4.0b12pre Fennec/4.0b5pre.

Also I've mentioned above that it only reproduces on this device. (This is not reproducible on Motorola Droid 2 nor Samsung Galaxy S Captivated)

As this reproduces on HTC Desire and XPeria Z10 with the STP 
1. Open Fennec 
2. Tab URL bar (the awesome bar present, all pages displayed and VKB opened)
3. Press System Menu Button 

I will reopen it . Please let me know If you need a video to be more clear or
some more details. Also I think it need to decide what we for the app to do
when the Menu button is pressed.

"HTC Desire and XPeria Z10" - Are these the only two phones we can see the problem? It seems to work fine on many other phones.

I've noticed also on HTC Desire Z

Given that the behavior:
* Does not happen on all phones (I can't repro, but others can)
* Is not a negative problem (nothing bad happens in terms of errors or usability)

I am going to close this bug as WONTFIX. If anyone thinks this is a negative issue that hurts the user or the app in some way, please reopen with your rationale clearly stated.
