It's a stupid question. Look at Google Play. If it says it's not compatible with your device there's no official release for your device.

I'm looking for Linaro builds of Fennec v13. The oldest i've found in this forum was 14.0 2012-06-20 Linaro Optimize. Can anyone help me ?
[Android Apps and Games] Mike B.:
Now running the 0511 build. The sync account still vanishes after a reboot.

After pairing, I see the "org.mozilla.firefox.sync" account in /data/system/accounts.db (with id=25?) but somehow it's not restored (or is deleted) at startup. I also notice that the account password is stored in plain text (auth.plain) in that db's authtokens field.

It's annoying but not a major problem unless the "other device" isn't around and I have to find/enter the @#$% key instead of a quick pairing.

No obvious significant functional differences between the 0507 and 0511 builds.
[Android Apps and Games] xmixahlx:
I didn't see any significant difference either, but wanted to change the build parameters (and remove the updater which obviously wouldn't work). inbound and central were merged, so there should be quite a bit of changes, however.

I'll see about doing a debug build as well. If you are still having issues it might be time to submit a bug or ask on the Google Group thread - I won't be able to help with any actual bugfixing as I'm not a developer.
[Android Apps and Games] Mike B.:
I definitely don't expect you to singlehandedly fix those issues! ;)

Some day, I might decide to get actively involved with the official sites but I'm too new to the Android world to make many worthwhile reports and I don't even know what's ARMv6-specific and what's an artifact of the nightly in general.

I'm delighted to be able to finally use Firefox/Fennel on my phone, even if it's not quite perfect yet. Keep those builds coming!
[Android Apps and Games] thebenefactor:
I want to share one thing with u that nightly version 12a1 was showing websites normally. But it was giving me crashes so much that i cant use it for a minute regularly.

Thanks to ur nightly that it is working smooth but displaying white screen instead of actual pages.
[Android Apps and Games] Schwinni:
Hi xmixahlx,

first of all thanks for your effort building an ARMv6 version. :)

I have one question though. Do you think it is possible to create a multi language build?
[Android Apps and Games] xmixahlx:
I'll be doing some test builds. Please check those to see if they resolve your issue.

Will do! And thanks for posting your issue to the Google Group. Just a note: I don't make any code changes to for the nightly, but it is possible that a build parameter could be an issue. Check the test builds for comparison.

Most welcome. I'll look into the process. What language?

For testing I'm going to try two things: use the new r8 NDK (I've been using r5c), and compile a debug build.

Here is the R8 NDK build. I'll try to get the debug build done soon. Working on scripts to make building easier/automated.
[Android Apps and Games] Schwinni:
For me personally en_US + de_DE would be fine.

In general something like the official "fennec-15.0a1.multi.android-arm" build would be the goal to strive for.

I diffed "fennec-15.0a1.en-US.android-arm" and "fennec-15.0a1.multi.android-arm" and (besides the manifest files with the checksums) only "resources.arsc" and "omni.ja" are different. The resources.arsc from the official en_US and your en_US build are identical BTW.

I also unpacked omni.ja (was omni.jar in the past, but renamed to .ja because Windows skipped jar files when creating a system restore point) and diffed these files also. All common files are the same. omni.ja from the multi language build just contains additional files for the additional languages.

That means that if you manage to build a multi language build only some localized files should be added to omni.ja.

Perhaps my analysis helped you a bit. :)

I'm gonna give that one a try. Many thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] Mike B.:
Confirming: the r8 build runs OK on the LG Thrive, as expected.
[Android Apps and Games] xmixahlx:
So funny story: Not sure if the NDK R8 version from yesterday actually compiled with the R5C tools or not. Just to be sure, I've redone the NDK R8 build.

It seems to be working great. On my device it seems to be faster (placebo warning).
[Android Apps and Games] Mike B.:
The "new" R8 build doesn't seem to behave differently from the "old" R8 or the R5 builds, but then running Firefox and sync on my phone creates such a euphoric feeling that it's hard to be objective! ;)

The only glitch is still the mystery of the vanishing sync account on reboot.
[Android Apps and Games] xmixahlx:
So this is currently lower priority for me to look at, but if you can do more legwork on this I'll work on it after I get my automatic build system setup.

Update: uploaded more/fixed snapshots.
[Android Apps and Games] mark.finkle:
Making multi-locale builds is not the easiest thing to do at the moment. You can jump on Mozilla IRC (#mobile) and ask for some help. We were just working on those instructions last week.
[Android Apps and Games] Dark Passenger:
Yes I have what i meant to say was that what the future plans for firefox for armv6 you know like reduce memory print and optimise page loading that all.

PS really liked the latest rom really stable apreciate your efforts

the fact that you r trying to get this nightly built production to automate mean that you are solving the Bug 723946.
[Android Apps and Games] Nightshadow931:
I can't even set up sync.God, they couldn't have made it more complex.

How the hell am I supposed to get the recovery key ?
[Android Apps and Games] Mike B.:
You first need to enable Firefox sync from your desktop and create a key. Once you've done that, select "pair a device" and enter the 3 codes that your mobile shows. Make sure you use the same account (email+password) on all devices. A quick Google search will show you step-by-step instructions if you still have trouble.

Once setup, sync works seamlessly in the background as long as the Firefox sync account is active. If it goes away (as it does for me after a reboot), you only need to pair the phone again.
[Android Apps and Games] SWFlyerUK:
This works very well with the Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 +!
[Android Apps and Games] xmixahlx:
Thanks to mfinkle and a few other devs at #mobile, It looks like I'll be able to get those multi-locale builds working. Probably next week.

The code itself has been fixed to build automatically, but the Mozilla build systems have not been updated (or ever will be updated?) to produce/host the resulting ARMv6 builds. That's why I've started this project as I wanted to fill that gap and let the developers do all the awesome actual development, LOL.

Thanks for the report.

I didn't receive any negative reports regarding the R8 NDK build, and it seems to be faster, smaller and builds quicker than the R5C builds. I've switched to the R8 NDK for all builds and updated the "Current Nightly".

Debug and Un-Optimized builds coming soon for testing purposes.
[Android Apps and Games] Nightshadow931:
I get to that screen, but can't go any further than that.Why ? Because I don't know 'Recovery key'.Why I don't know it ? Because I can't scroll left, go to options and see it on mobile.
[Android Apps and Games] xmixahlx:
Perhaps do this on your desktop first? I initiate all of the sync action from the desktop and choose "Pair a Device".
[Android Apps and Games] Mike B.:
I'm not sure why your android wants the sync key. If you first configure your sync account on the desktop then select "pair a device", the 3 codes generated by the phone should suffice and you don't need the recovery key. If you have to pair again later away from the desktop, I suggest you copy that key somewhere on your SD card so that it's readily available for copy/paste when needed. If you don't do that, you'll have to follow the clumsy "I lost my other device" recovery method on the phone.

Note: deleting then re-creating the sync account on your desktop might help. I had to do that once when I first tried from Firefox 13 on my Mac.
[Android Apps and Games] Nightshadow931:
That worked, I had to delete my account, and then create it again.

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] xda163fm:
Does anyone have a download link with MD5? When I try to run APK to install from Root Explorer it crashes RE so wondering if bad download. Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] xmixahlx:
I'll work on providing those. Won't be till tomorrow, however. Might as well redownload and find out, right?
[Android Apps and Games] giociampa:
Mightily pleased to see a build that can run on my humble Wildfire...

(I've been using Firefox since the v0.6 Phoenix days, so have been looking forward to trying out the mobile version at long last)

...however, after a promising start - the initial sync seemed to go perfectly - that's where things started to go wrong.

Whatever page I've tried to load - BBC News, Facebook (Mobile), a Proboards forum, etc... all end in the browser crashing out. On restarting, I can see a thumbnail of the site that I just tried to load, but they don't get me anywhere either.

Any ideas as to what the cause (or a fix) might be? Might it be related to the fact I'm running Erwin's unofficial CM9 port? And the ARMv6 port of Flash on top (am I right to assume that it would be used if found)?

Thanks in advance...
[Android Apps and Games] xmixahlx:
I'd try without flash first. I'll have debug and un-optimized (default) builds tomorrow/soon, so you'll have a few to try out.
[Android Apps and Games] giociampa:
Will do - and look forward to the new builds also :D
[Android Apps and Games] SWFlyerUK:
Are there new builds for the ARM7 device APK's?
[Android Apps and Games] Nightshadow931:
This is for arm6 only.
[Android Apps and Games] Ganster41:
For more speedup you can try to use NDK with unofficial GCC 4.6 build. Like this, or self build...

I build ffmpeg and some other my projects with it, and linaro does really good optimisations for ARM cores.
[Android Apps and Games] xmixahlx:
Thanks for the info. I'll look into that.
[Android Apps and Games] flexte:
I have everything setup fine on both ends but nothing is syncing. deleted the account a few times and paired by device and by the computer. I had no issues syncing with chrome but day 2 and still no bookmarks. any suggestions? the regular Firefox syncs just fine but the beta doesn't. well after i installed the regular Firefox and beta at the same time it now works
[Android Apps and Games] xmixahlx:
It took Mike B. a few troubleshooting steps to get sync working, too. Not sure why that is. My guess is that sync takes a while to download your synced data sometimes. Make sure you are on WiFi.
[Android Apps and Games] flexte:
I have been on wifi and i have been doing this since yesterday. it wasn't until i installed he regular version of firefox that it started working. or maybe it was the reinstall of the beta version but either way it took all of 2 minutes to sync once it started so maybe a bad install or it needed the other app installed along with it.
[Android Apps and Games] xmixahlx:
Updates:

* New 05/16 build.

* Default (unoptimized) and debug builds are now available for testing.

* MD5 now included for new builds.

* All current builds now use R8 NDK.
[Android Apps and Games] Mike B.:
@flexte:

I'm not sure what you mean by "the regular version" of Firefox. On the desktop Fox, you can (temporarily) add a Sync Icon to your toolbar to get a quick check on when it last synced. See if the sync account on your phone survives a reboot. Mine doesn't but it's then a simple matter of pairing the phone again.
[Android Apps and Games] Dark Passenger:
Hey for a layman can u tell what is the difference between the three builds.
[Android Apps and Games] xmixahlx:
First: Be sure your device is ARMv6.

The difference is the compiler optimizations. If "optimized" works on your device, stick with it. If it doesn't, try default. If you are a developer grab debug.
[Android Apps and Games] mark.finkle:
We do plan to make this process much more simple, as soon as we get some time. You are not alone. It is a common request.
[Android Apps and Games] Gandolff:

Another testing build is available.

15.0a1 2012-05-16 R8 NDK + Linaro Android Toolchain 4.6.3-2011.12

Linaro aims to optimize ARM. This is a further optimized build for testing.
[Android Apps and Games] saldymhmd:
Hm, what is the main difference between the optimize and default ? :D
[Android Apps and Games] xmixahlx:
Y'all... There is one "Current Nightly", which is the optimize build. This SHOULD work (and work quickly) on all ARMv6 devices.

All the other builds are for testing. Please report your experience on your device if one should either fail or work better than "Optimize". Thank you!

Testing Builds:

Debug: Developers/Super-Nerds

Default: In case "Optimize" doesn't work for you (likely to be slower)

Linaro: Extensive optimizations for ARM
[Android Apps and Games] Mike B.:
The Linaro build might feel a bit snappier but that's subjective. It's smaller, which is always good. No obvious functional differences from the plain optimized build.
[Android Apps and Games] xmixahlx:
The linaro build seems to deliver the rendered pages all at once. All other builds seem to cobble the page together until it has downloaded all of the elements. Strange difference.

A bit quicker, and a bit smaller, too. Anyone have issues with it?
[Android Apps and Games] Dark Passenger:
linario optimised built problems

the linaro build gives me a connection error though the app is smaller and faster any ideas whats wrong.

Ps checked same sites(google & wkipedia) using opera mini & current nightly and they work though current nightly was slower ...

[Android Apps and Games] Mike B.:
Since some of you apparently have trouble with Rapidshare (as I too often do), let's see if some mirrors would work better for everyone. I uploaded the current builds to both Mediafire and Dropbox. Depending on your feedback, I might continue to mirror future builds on one or both locations until ARMv6 nightlies gain official status.

EDIT: Deleted redundant links. Mediafire mirrors now provided directly by xmixahlx in Post #1
[Android Apps and Games] xmixahlx:
Current nightly updated to 2012-05-20.

Also, I'd recommend to everyone to try the Linaro build first. I'm using this now and prefer the smaller size, quicker speed, and page rendering difference over the regular "Optimize" build.

Mediafire !

This ! Please use mediafire hosting for next release, rapidshare have slow download speed. Mediafire is the best, no waitng, fast speed :)
[Android Apps and Games] saldymhmd:
reporting in, used the linaro and optimized version, it bit laggy and sometimes force close, downloading the default version. I'm on Galaxy Gio CM7.2
[Android Apps and Games] xmixahlx:
Thanks for the update. The only time i've had fennec FC is when Astro file manager is open still (I use Astro to install Fennec by copying from my server).

I use Link2SD to Quick Reboot after installing nightlies (I test all the builds, so do this a lot) and never had an FC after doing so.

I'd recommend to test that out with the linaro and optimize builds first.

Edit: Also, I've uploaded 05/16 and 05/20 builds to Mediafire. All new builds will be posted to Mediafire as requested. Sorry, didn't realize Rapidshare was lame for some of y'all. First Post updated.

I've updated Aurora with additional builds (linaro, default and debug)
[Android Apps and Games] neil.richard:
Maybe a BUG?.

I am downloading a file but the "Downloads" in Firefox is empty!:confused:

however,the notification bar shows that the download is going on! .

Can anyone conform? ..I'm running today's Aroura Build 14.oa ..

GALAXY FIT!
[Android Apps and Games] mark.finkle:
This is expected in Fx14. We only track completed downloads in the Download Manager. There is a patch landing soon for Fx15 that will track in-progress, and other types, of downloads in the Download Manager.
[Android Apps and Games] xmixahlx:
Also, the Mozilla Devs (hi Mark!) have verified that the Aurora build here is equivalent to their Firefox Beta recently released for ARMv7.

The Mozilla Sync account works for both Nightly and Aurora. Simply access your Sync account and select both Nightly and Aurora to sync automatically. I am using both linaro builds without issue.
[Android Apps and Games] :
I've never seen Firefox for ARMv6 been so stable!

Of course, opening planet.ubuntu.com will freeze device for a few minutes and after canceling Android's message about app being unresponsive, Firefox works smoothly and doesn't crash.

I'm totally amazed.

Conclusion: stable browser from Mozilla for our devices is around the corner!
