So firefox syncs bookmarks between all my PCs no problem at all, and it syncs to firefox for android on my Tesco Hudl tablet on 4.2.2, but for some reason all of a sudden it won't sync to my Sony Xperia Z on 4.2.2, it was working fine then it stopped, i updated all my PCs to the latest firefox with no improvement, deleted my account on my phone, cleared the cache etc and re-installed the app, all to no effect.

Both droids Rooted Also if that makes any difference

Any help would be much appreciated. TIA

Please, check if you have the same issue as I have, "All FF Android bookmarks are not synced. There seems to be a bug." Posted just before yours.

It includes the "method", which makes the sync and at the same time shows up the potential bug in the sync system (in Android or in Mozilla server).

Thanks

No luck unfortunately, there seems to be no way to force the sync to put anything on my phone :(

Just as an update. I still have this issue (about 6 months, no change). Update does not work, without playing manually with directories, as described earlier in this thread. Sync, at least with large amount of bookmarks, is unusable with Android.
