704840 - Save as PDF downloads into oblivion

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 695178

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[Aaron Train [:aaronmt]]

Currently when one opts to 'Save as PDF'; the download is seemingly sent into 'oblivion'. The re is no toaster notification; and the download notification disappears from my pull-down menu.

The files are downloading; but why is there no proper download notification to get access to these files?

I think we need a proper download manager to get to these downloads. Bug 695178.

Yeah, after that bug is fixed you'll get a "download completed" notification that hangs around until you get rid of it.

mfinkle alluded to this bug today in the mobile meeting. 

Just confirming that, yes they downloaded to /sdcard/downloads
