I have the latest version of mobile Firefox on Android 4.0.4 (tab). The drop down menu (from the three dots on the right of the URL bar) which is supposed to show my add-on selections (QuitNow, HomeLink, &Lastpass) does not always display them. If I reinstalled the add on, they will show for a short while; then disappear until I reinstall again. This doesn't seem to happen on my phone (Gingerbread); just on the 4.0.4 Galaxy tab.

Hello,

This sounds like bug 832990. Does your affected device happen to have 'Don't Keep Activities' enabled in Android's Developer settings? If so, it is best to make sure that that feature is disabled as it can cause issues in many Android applications triggering undesirable effects.

AronMT, Looks like you nailed it. I can't thank you enough. While I'm typing this reply I will hit the three dots... Yep. The menu items are still there.

Thanks again.

By the way, the embedded link in email cannot find the page. I'll email you a copy of my reply.
