Every then and now I get this error message while doing a research on google, or switching my search from web to search. Is the problem actually with google or firefox, because when this occurs I simply go to yahoo. It would actually be great if this error message quit showing up, either you guys call google and try to have this fixed or talk to your guys to fix this error. I don't understand why it's showing up when i'm already doing a search and write something else to research.

Thanks for reading this and understanding the frustration

the problem is that it keeps coming back, why can't it be fixed?

Hello there,

Have you tired reinstalling Firefox for Android and see if the issue still exists?

Keep us posted!
