785499 - Launching the market with no connection yields a black screen

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: Web Apps (PWAs), defect, P1)

Description

[Aaron Train [:aaronmt]]

Launching the Mozilla Market with no connection yields a black screen instead of the offline message one would see in Firefox.

STR:

i) Launch Nightly without an internet connection
ii) Tap the Mozilla Marketplace promotion, opt-in to associate marketplace links; tap 'Open'
iii) Quit Nightly
iv) Launch Nightly -> Apps -> "Mozilla Marketplace", or tap the Mozilla Marketplace promotion again

ER: No connection (offline) message one would see in Firefox
AR: Black-screen

It should be impossible to install the marketplace when there is no internet connection. Lets fix that.

Aaron - With marketplace disabled as a web app, this shouldn't reproduce anymore, right?

Disabled as a web app through the android manifest*

Correct.

Okay then - I'm closing this as no longer valid, as we aren't supporting marketplace as a web app anymore in the android manifest.
