I am changing smartphone from s6 to s7. I use Firefox for Android v54.0 and use the sync functionality mainly for sync Login and Bookmarks with my PC Version (current 54.0) and other devices. After loging in with my sync account on new smartphone, the logins will not synchronize, even after i remove the option "use master password". History or Bookmarks did and still do sync with other devices. Would you please have any troubleshoot steps for me ?

OK. Today I did de-install Firefox for Android and reinstall it, connect Sync and now...logins were synx. So i assume the issue root cause has to do with the initial direct app transfer from S6 to S7 (per USB). KR.
