861563 - Firefox hangs with ANR Dialog

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 844275

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[kklimonda]

Attachment: traces.txt

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.2; WOW64; rv:22.0) Gecko/20130406 Firefox/22.0
Build ID: 20130406004015

Steps to reproduce:

It happens regularly no matter what I do, even if the browser isn't focused.


Actual results:

From time to time the currently focused application (be it Firefox, or something else) freezes for ~10 seconds, until the ANR dialog for Firefox pops out - at that point I can kill Firefox and everything is back to normal.

This should have been fixed with bug 844275 and follow-ups, which are in Firefox 21 (currently on the beta channel). Please try using Firefox Beta to see if you still experience this problem.

Thanks, I haven't seen this behavior so far in Firefox Beta, so it must be fixed.
