I am also able to replicate this issue on the ZTE Open C and on the Keon v1.3 (screenshot1). 

ZTE Open (Ebay) and LG Fireweb v1.1 were not affected by this issue (no confirmation page) so there is definitely something different happening.

I understand that we are not able to fix Google’s bugs, but do we know any contacts at Google who may be able to help fixing this issue? 

The “Import Contacts” feature is part of the First Time Use Experience, and every user that chooses to import Google contacts will encounter this issue on this device. This is not how we would like their First Run experience to be - I believe this will have enough visibility to warrant a discussion how we can push to resolve this.

This bug makes the confirmation screen look confusing, having only a “Cancel” button to press. Dragging the screen to the left reveals the “Accept” button (screenshot2) but the average first-time smartphone user would not think of that. Tapping the “Cancel” button instead, sends the user to a blank screen.

It seems like a simple visual glitch on the CSS code?

Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help.

Thanks!!

Karl, do you have any contacts over at google that could help slide the "accept" button over into the visable space on firefox phones.   I'm pretty sure that lots of people might be giving up on importing contacts from gmail on firefox phones since the only button they see is "cancel",  if they don't bother to scroll on the set up screen.   makes sense to scroll on webpages, but not on something that appears more like a setup application.

Marcia, Chris,

Do you know if the user agent when the app is contacting https://accounts.google.com/ is the usual
"Mozilla/5.0 (Mobile; rv:30.0) Gecko/30.0 Firefox/30.0"?

OK after digging a bit, this is a duplicate.
