Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:13.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/13.0.1
Build ID: 20120616215734

Steps to reproduce:

Started Firefox for Android from the menu.


Actual results:

Sometimes Firefox fails to start up properly.  The screen appears, but no content appears.  The URL bar can be selected, but after selecting a bookmark or entering a URL, no pages will load, not even about:blank.  In Settings, all items are greyed-out.  If you select Quit, nothing happens.

This can be remedied by stopping Firefox and restarting it.  However, it happens frequently.
Hardware is a Samsung Galaxy Nexus running Android 4.1.1.

Thanks for the bug report. Two questions, do you happen to have the system preference: 'Don't keep activities' enabled in the Android developer settings? Can you attach a log (instructions here: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Fennec/Android#Using_logcat) to this bug capturing the startup and attempt to load a webpage of Firefox?
'Don't keep activities' is disabled, as are all other developer options.

The aLogcat app doesn't work in Jelly Bean and I haven't yet been able to reproduce this when I've had the SDK handy, but I'll keep trying.
Hello Peter
