Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 802510

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[Seamus Boden]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:16.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/16.0
Build ID: 20121024073032

Steps to reproduce:

The Android upgrade loads automatically when the device wa powered up


Actual results:

I can open a first page on any site but opening a link or tab within that site results in the original page closing. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox for Android from the Google Play site but this has made no difference. Also I have lost th sync with my desktop Firefox. Google Chrome works OK but its not my browser of choice

I cannot report this direct to Google

This will be fixed in an update (Firefox 17) released on Tuesday. I suggest for now downloading Firefox Beta on Google Play which has a fix.
