Today I was out of the house for a bit, and towards the end of it, I noticed that my phone was really hot. I checked the notifications, and android had given me an alert that my phone had used 7 GB of mobile data (the alarm is set to notify me for anything past 1GB). This was presumably in the space of slightly over an hour - while I wasn't even using the phone actively at all. according to android's "application data usage", all but 52 bytes of that was all foreground usage. But the thing is, I'm confused what even it was using that much data on - I don't think it could have been autoplaying videos, since I think the tab it was open to was something like reddit. I'm wanting to know what could have caused it to use that much data in that short a time without me actively doing things which are that data-intensive. Could it be something to do with the fact I had quite a few tabs open? are background tabs constantly requesting data or something? could it be some kind of virus? I'm honestly not sure, but I'd appreciate feedback so that this doesn't happen again. I'm also unsure if there's any way to generate a diagnostic report of the app, or anything like that, so if there is, please let me know.

What files must I edit from Firefox's Github repo to add wireless keyboard support for mobile/AOSP? I waited over a decade for code that should take a half hour to write.

Please help me help you. I will do all of the work for free, just tell me what files to start with. CTRL+S, CTRL+U, CTRL+S, CTRL+F, F5, resize shortcuts, nothing works. … (read more)

Cheap wireless keyboards came out a decade ago, but mobile had no support, so I thought "okay, it will just take a few weeks." But weeks became years. Over a decade passed, still no progress. I will do it for you for free if you let me. If the problem was Firefox, I would just switch to Chrome, but building Chromium for Android is even harder and it also needs patched to get keyboard support.

I'm not a native English speaker. Please forgive my possible mistakes in grammar.

In my opinion, Firefox for Android is designed for Android smartphones and tablets. But when I download and install the latest version on my tablet. It doesn't fit the big screen well. It just like a larger version of smartphone. I tried several other web browser on my tablet. Such as kiwi-browser , Chrome , edge and samsung browser. They performed well on the big screen of tablet. Just like the desktop version. I think Firefox for Android should perform more like the desktop verison on tablet but not the bigger smartphone. It's very frustrating for me because I have to use other web browser on my tablet rather than my favorite Firefox.

I have used the older version (ver.68) of Firefox for Android. It's much better than the present user interface. Why Firefox for Android doesn't fit for tablet now?
