Just purchased a Galaxay Note 10.1 the 8010 model with Jelly Bean installed. I have Firefox on my laptop and it was easy to make it my default browser. Not so easy on the Note. It may just be that the Jelly Bean is different but I just cannot find clear instructions on the Net how to install Firefox. Any help would be appreciated - I am almost computer illiterate! Thanks in anticipation for your help.
