Firefox for Android Community Forum

Hi everyone, My android device has been thouroughly hacked, reconfigured and I was put under administration while the hijacking of my accounts took place. I have tried to sign up with one of my 3 outlook email addresses and none of them will work. I get to the part of sign up that says we've sent an email to the address I provided. I go to that inbox and there's an immediately received mail which doesn't allow for me to verify my email with the code. It just goes straight to an account. Where can I find out who's signed in where on which account and how do I find and unlink the devices being used to hack me so violently. Any advice would be great thanks so much guys

Firefox Mobile suggests passwords based on TLD. On desktop version, we can go to `about:config` and set `signon.includeOtherSubdomainsInLookup = false` to only suggest the exact subdomain.

How can we achieve this on Firefox for Android?

instagram.com not asking for notification permission, so I'm not able to receive notifications from this site.

Someone else experiencing this? Is there something that I and/or Firefox and/or Instagram can do to fix this?

CONFIGS

• Settings> Sites Permission> Notifications is set to Ask to allow
• there's no record of instagram.com on Settings> Sites Permission> Exceptions
• Tested also with addons disabled
• Firefox version: 117.1.0 (Build #2015973691), from Google Play Store
• Oneplus 11

Ps: Tested on Google Chrome and the site asks for this permission

I have noticed that mobile browsers (including Firefox Mobile) don't seem to give you the option to clear cookies and other website data on close while preserving website info/cookies of sites you want to keep logged into.

Is this a feature that will eventually be implemented in Firefox? Or is there some kind of limitation in Android/iOS that makes implementing this not possible or tricky?

I use an external password manager on my Android phone - Nextcloud Passwords. It works with Google Chrome, Firefox Focus, DuckDuckGo, and other browsers. However, the main Firefox browser does not allow me to use the autofill feature with this manager app. Here are the steps to reproduce:

1. On a page with a username/password field, select one of the fields (give it focus)
2. The soft-keyboard appears and an "Autofill" popup appears (good!)
3. Pressing on the "Autofill" popup opens my password manager (good)
4. Selecting the password to fill in the manager app returns me to the page
5. Another popup should appear with the name of the site password selected in the manager app, and it looks like it does briefly, but another "Autofill" popup appears immediately. No username/password is filled.

This results in an endless loop of pressing the "Autofill" popup, selecting the password in the manager app, then the "Autofill" popup appears again.

Trying to make Firefox my default browser

What are the risks of playing or allowing DRM CONTENT to be played on your DEVICE. I have not allowed it have read something months ago that alarmed me but I do NOT recall. Thanks for any UNBIASED INSIGHT YOU CAN PROVIDE.

Really do Like Firefox/Mozilla; Appreciate the opportunity offered to apply an app to link to cell phone; However my Cell Phone does Not allow apps, No Internet Connection. Should I go to 'Settings' to opt-out for the app??

so i want to delete bookmarks, passwords, cookies, site history, everything!!!

I tried uninstalling and reinstalling but somehow it didnt remove my passwords (and no i didnt enable sync after reinstall)

Reason: I have just spent a good amount of time cleaning up old passwords that i dont use anymore or have changed and not been updated from some reason. When i re-enable sync, I dont want the saved passwords from my phone to resync to my PC. To be absolutely sure that this doesnt happen i would like to just resync all the data to my phone from my sync account.

I like using fingerprint to unlock my mobile and I can manage the risks linked to the weaknesses of the method.

BUT I find very dangerous to be able to access all my passwords using my finger. My finger could be used when I am asleep for example and the person would be able to see and copy all the passwords he wants while I am sleeping. I would even not notice he copied anything when I wake up.

When I want to see a password I am proposed to use PIN AND fingerprint. So unless there is a way to disable unlocking the passwords with the fingerprint, I am forced to disable fingerprint to unlock my mobile which is annoying.

My question is -- How do I disable fingerprint for accessing my passwords without removing fingerprint globally ?

Facts 1. I reset my desktop and needed to login from scratch. 2. I have 2 step authentication on 3. I forgot which authentication app I used for firefox 4. So I used email to login (or try to login anyways).. I requested several emails

Problem 5. The EXACT same situation here (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1356051#question-reply) happened to me: firefox claimed they were sending me emails, that had codes but didn't receive ANY email

More facts: 6. I read the article cited in 5. And installed authy, and sure enough was able to login 7. I got multiple back up options to log in now (got plenty of emails now)..

QUESTION: 8. Why did I get emails from 6. But not 4.? I suspect something is messed up on the security side of Firefox

See image

I am seeing a locked Firefox when I am using my email. I am unable to remove it or unlock it. I cannot use auto fill now ..on my android phone while using my email. I don't understand Mozilla configure!!! Phone is [telephone number] Email.. [email address] Please help.
