Apps? or Add-Ons? https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/
Are you looking for a way to download Firefox to your Google Android phone? The Android Market is the supported way to download apps to most Android phones, but you can also download Firefox directly from Mozilla's FTP server using the link on this page:
Thank you for the quick responce. Sorry I was vague. I have a samsung galaxy prevail 2.2.2 (boost) my first android. I sent the phone to samsung to fix the first week I owned the phone, and again one week after it was returned to me from samsung. I then accepted the limitations of phone ( I have been told boost is the reason) I have not been happy with the lack of functionality and or the various things it does all by it's self. I feel that google is an manoply with it's tenacles in many aspects of use on the internet, cell phones etc... In my ignorance I did not know that android meant google. I don't want to go through google to down load anything for my phone, it seems I must consent to have my phone monitored by google take information on cell use and apps down loaded etc... I have looked at rooting my phone but haven't found a rooting that is specific to the froyo OS that is on my (boost) prevail. I would like to add apps to my phone without the need to by entrapped by google ( my feelings). So now I come to Firefox because in internet use with Firefox as ISP I have found Firefox very willing to give apps without any stipulation or investgation of my person.
I hope I have not rambled on or with indepth (cough, cough) made my initual inquiry less understood. If anyone can advise a very limited programer (cough, cough) on how to root with very simple instructions please advise
THANK YOU , THANK YOU, AND AGAIN I THANK YOU any help, advise would and will be appreciated ceudy
This is the Firefox Support Site.
I, nor should anyone else here, should advise you on how to break the user agreement of your phone. Google.com is full of search result on how to "root" your phone.
It's possible to root your phone, as the Samsung Prevail is the same device I bought my 11yr old daughter for Christmas, and I rooted it. But I can not advise you on how that is done on a FIREFOX SUPPORT SITE
In relation to your original question, as mbrubeck stated you can download the FF Android BROWSER from the Android Market or the FTP. (and FYI, Firefox is not an ISP)
