I really wonder when the hell you update firefox official build. Have you ever read reviews about this recent build? For me, it was the worst one I've used.

Stucks, crashed everytime. Can you believe that I've seen crashes more then 10 times per hour? It does. Is my device not powerful to run firefox? with Snapdragon 800, 2GB RAM.

You guys, do you know that firefox doesn't work in some wikipedia? Usually, hyperlinks that jumps over same document doesn't work. So you should do scroll down to see its reference, and details.

Ex ) rigvedawiki.net/r1/wiki.php ( a major korean wiki uses wikiwiki )

If I were in your shoes, I'll update the official build to beta's right now. Please fix these problems quickly.

Hi PielunA

Sorry about the crashing in FF35 (and I guess FF34 worked better i.e. crashed less). I've tried rigvedawiki.net/r1/wiki.php and my HTC One M7, Samsung Galaxy S5 and Google Nexus 5 all didn't crash (but maybe I am missing something because I don't read Korean!)! I've also tried the Samsung Galay Note 4 and it doesn't crash either.

  1. What phone or tablet are you using and what version of Android (kitkat 4.4, jellybean 4.1-3, ice cream sandwich 4.0.x, etc)?
  2. Does Firefox 36 for Android Beta work better i.e. not crash?
  3. You wrote: "You guys, do you know that firefox doesn't work in some wikipedia?": Again I have done limited testing on lots of high end devices and no crashes on wikipedia! What specific wikipedia pages aren't working for you?

1. SAMSUNG Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4" Tablet PC running lastest build, Android 4.4.2

2. It was not a long time to make it sure to use that beta verson. But, judging from play store's recent reviews, it's quite clear that current version needs fix soon. refer play store's most helped(default), recent reviews.

3. I mean footnotes ( http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Footnotes ). It doesn't work in many cases, and if works, it doesn't make history so if you touch go back, browser will show you last document instead of footnoted paragraph.

Like this[1], footnote's hyperlink doesn't work.

[1] footnotes

Hi PielunA:

  1. Thanks for the device info and exact steps about wikipedia! I tested on my Samsung Tab S 10 running Android 4.4.2. There indeed looks to be problem with Wikipedia footnotes! I'll file a bug if I can't find an existing one.
  2. in the meantime regarding crashes, could you please let me know the crashids (just copy and paste the crashids or post a screenshot please of about:crashes)

Cheers! ...Roland

In most case, there was no error reporting page.

PS. I found that firefox works well on english wikipedia. More specifically, clicking footnote shows up popup interface instead of jumping to bottom so that mediawiki engine works well. What I wrote, rigvedawiki uses different wiki engine called moniwiki ( https://github.com/wkpark/moniwiki ). Its footnote function works as a hyperlink. I guess it uses typical hyperlink tag like <a href> for going to footnote. When browser meet a hyperlink, it should add a history for going preview position.

And, a tiny link isn't working well. Please check. Does firefox interupt touch input on some case? like touching both link and the others

Please refer this page ( written in korean ) http://rigvedawiki.net/r1/wiki.php/%EA%B0%81%EC%A3%BC#fn1 ( following is same page via google translator ) https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&u=http%3A//rigvedawiki.net/r1/wiki.php/%25EA%25B0%2581%25EC%25A3%25BC%23fn1
