User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:16.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/16.0 Build ID: 20121024073032 Steps to reproduce: Tried to sync my new laptop with my android device, a samsung nexus S running android jelly bean 4.1.2. In my phone, I followed this path: 1) Opened Firefox 2) Settings 3) Sync 4) (my account) - firefox sync Actual results: I couldn't find where to insert the three codes I was provided by firefox (running on my laptop). There was no menu item "Pair a device". Expected results: That menu path should have led to "Firefox Sync", which is reachable through "System Settings-->(ACCOUNTS) Firefox Sync".

Hi, I see this slipped through the cracks. I'm going to mark this as a duplicate of another bug. We're aware of this issue, but since pairing a device to a phone is rare, it's not a priority. Sorry :( We'll try to get to it as we work on changes to to the Sync set up flow.
