I have the original Droid with Android 2.2.2.  When I sync'ed it with my computer the bookmarks failed to sync.  Also, Firefox seems to freeze for a while.  I noticed that the original Droid is not supported for the sync feature.  When, if at all, will the original Droid be supported?  And is there a fix for the bookmarks problem?

Reproducible: Always

Could you clarify?

* Are you have problems on the Droid, or on your desktop? Which one freezes? Which one doesn't have your bookmarks?

* Where do you see that the original Droid is not supported?

* Are you running Firefox on your Droid? You don't explicitly mention it.

* Do you have "Bookmarks" checked in the Sync section of Firefox's Options dialog on your desktop?

Answers to clarification questions:
 1) The Droid freezes and does not have my bookmarks.
2) As I recall, the Firefox 4 listing of supported Android phones only were for phones later than the original Droid.  It did not explicitly say that the original Droid was not supported.
3) I am running Firefox 4 on the Droid, but the bookmarks have not transferred on Syncing.
4) Yes, bookmarks is checked in the Sync section of Options.

Thanks for taking the time to respond to my question.

Is this still an issue with Firefox 6?
