Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[Adrian Tamas (:AdrianT)]

Attachment: logs

Opening the issue as a followup to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=704042#c3

Fennec/14.0a1 2012-04-16
Device: Motorola Droid 2(Android 2.3)

Steps to reproduce
1. Load an invalid url like fake://url.
2. Wait for the page to load.
3. When asked, confirm launching the app that handles the url.

Expected Results:
An error is displayed that the protocol is not supported before the popup to launch an external app or if the user confirms opening using an external app a pop is displayed informing the user that an app could not be found.

Actual Results: 
Nothing happens. 
The following error can be seen in the logs:
Handled load error: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nsIWebNavigation.loadURI]"  nsresult: "0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)"  location: "JS frame :: chrome://global/content/bindings/browser.xml :: loadURIWithFlags :: line 193"  data: no]

Notes:
The stock Android Browser and Dolphin HD a default engine search is done instead of opening the unknown protocol. Opera Mobile displays an error that the protocol is unknown and can't open the URL.

I don't see this happening in current Native trunk build on the Samsung Galaxy SII.
I get a "Launch Application" dialog to show up.
