Hi,

I'm using Firefox for Android 24 on a Nexus 4 on Android 4.3.

I can browse any website, but why I try to go in the address bar, I see the history for a few seconds and the application crashed.

I can't access about:crashed because I can't get in the adress bar...


[edit] It does not happen with android for firefox beta


Thanks

I wrote a quick add-on to allow you to open about:crashes directly.

http://people.mozilla.com/~rnewman/about-pages.xpi

This adds an "about:crashes" entry in the Tools menu. See if you can click that and copy the links into an email so you can get them here…

Thanks!

This problem sounds similar to this bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=900020

It looks like we might be close to a solution.
