So, I downloaded and installed it, but when I run the app all the screen does is blink and go back to the home screen. Not sure what is missing, or what else I need to do to get this app to run, but I can at least chuck the FTP directory which houses the apk at those who know a lot more than I do about these things...Index of /pub/mozilla.org/mobile/nightly/latest-mozilla-central-android-r7Good luck!

I'll run logcat and see if I can come up with anything

"D/Zygote ( 1846): Process 5165 terminated by signal (4)" Is an illegal instruction

FireFox Mobile is in Pre-Alpha. You can find more info and the latest nightly build here:https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Platforms/AndroidRight now it doesn't work on the Samsung Moment, which uses the same processor as the Novel.The page above does link to a forum. I suspect you can share your findings there.

I tried the latest build. After starting it gave me a black screen for a while, but eventually loaded up. I really did like the look of the browser, and pages seemed to load pretty quickly, but for some reason the keyboard wasn't coming up in text boxes so there wasn't much I could do.Looks promising though.

 

[looking335]

There is an official 'beta' for download (Mozilla.com | Mobile)You can read more about the announcement here:Mozilla Releases Firefox 4 Beta For Android/Maemo | ConceivablyTech

 

[derelicte]

doesn't work for me on the open firmware.

 

[geebekazoo]

No Joy here. Using a WPDN, hacked, with 09/23FW. Tried with JIT and without JIT mods. Firefox just opens up with a black screen and then disappears... /;=P

 

[JulieB]

Yeah, I ran into the same thing. But on my phone - oh, joy! It works with rich text boxes! I can't wait until they get it working on the Novel.

Are people trying the ARMv7-optimized releases or the experimental ARMv6 nightly builds?--bornagainpenguin

 

[geebekazoo]

I've tried both. The v7 just shows a black screen that immediately disappears. The v6 actually loads and opens up to a screen but crashes as soon as I set the cursor in the address box.

 

[dccase]

I tried both but neither worked. The Armv6 version may have done a little more before failing, but it never got past a blank screen.It's a BIG install. Took up more space than all my other apps put together.I've tried a lot of browsers, but I'm pretty happy with xScope version 5. It's what I use 95% of the time. The developer has made that version free. xScope, a multitouch pinch zoom browser - Page 21 - Android ForumsOops... Was that a hijack?

 

[static808]

Black screen for me. I uninstalled and continue to use Skyfire. Hopefully Firefox gets fixed soon. Definitely would like to sync the bookmarks..

New version of Fennec out; Mozilla has significantly reduced the size of the app. (Thank God!)I tried the experimental ARMv6 nightly build first to see if it would work, since that was the only one we saw some signs of success with in the previous betas. It takes a long time then loads to the home page, and crashes. Trying to send the crash report to Mozilla results in FC city. Uninstalled.The ARMv7 (default version) installs but when launched from the app drawer complains about the PDN not meeting the minimum requirements. This was all done on my PDN-W rev1 board with the 7_24 firmware installed and without the GE or Market working. I did a reinstall recently to see if I can live without Market or the GE in hopes of recouping some battery life. We'll see where that goes.Could someone with higher level firmware and full GEMarket, OP firmware please give the experimental ARMv6 nightly build a try and report back their findings? Also, someone with the rev2 boards? Thanks!--bornagainpenguinPS: Interesting note--If you have any of the "Fake Firefox" browsers the ARMv7 build will make you look twice, because it is labeled as Firefox complete with standard icons. The ARMv6 builds are still labeled Fennec and using the older icon for that version.PPS: I reinstalled the Fennec ARMv6 build after I installed the GE (PDN was still coming on even without it, so why deprive myself of the Market?) and the same behavior seems to persist. Interestingly enough it only seems to crash after it loads a page. I clicked a link in Facebook and was prompted to choose which browser to use--on a whim I chose Fennec and it loaded the page completely before stalling and crashing. So it's not got anything to do with the start up page, which was my suspicion previously.My results are probably atypical considering I am using a "dirty" build having installed GE and market last rather than first as is the recommended procedure. Would still love to have someone who did it the right way or is running one of the other mods or even higher level firmware (ie 9_30, or Froyo from rapmv, or jackbox's OP mod) to give the browser a test.

I tried all the version in the Download Firefox app (i think there were 6 or 7) even when modifying the build.prop to get them all to install and run... none of them worked.

Yeah, at this point I'm getting a bit burned out on ever getting Firefox on the PDN. It just doesn;t seem to be a priority for the Firefox people to get ARMv6 to work when they can play with the much sexier and more powerful ARMv7.I'm currently running Opera Mobile 10.1 beta since it seems to be the most featured web browser I can get going on my PDN. Certainly it was the only one that was capable of getting me to the https redirect at the hospital's WiFi when I went with my mom for some tests (she's fine btw) and my then favorite Infinity was unable to do the job.I sure miss my adblock extension though...--bornagainpenguin

 

[bornagainpenguin]

Gave the "experimental" ARMv6 build another try today. Still no joy. I'm starting to think we'll never see Firefox on our PDNs

[Radon_22]

It's overrated, anyway. Miren, xScope, or Dolphin Mini are much better choices for a number of reasons, even on a higher powered machine.

Miren gets used on my WPDN daily.
