Firefox Beta and Aurora doesn't react on input.

Hello,

So I tried Firefox Beta and Aurora on my phone and with both, I have the problem that I have to tap on a link (including "Go" button on URL bar) twice or more to actually open it and on some pages, the links do not work at all (so I have to copy&paste every single link). I have a Motorola RAZR i (with Intel Atom CPU). Although, the same problem occurs on my (ARM-based) tablet too, where the release version works flawlessly.

Please fix this :) Also, when does the release version for x86 come out?

Wait. Now I have the same problem again.

OK, I have tracked the problem down to a function in the NoScript add-on. I guess it doesn't work properly with the beta versions :P

Still, I wonder why even the release version is so unstable....

x86 Android has a beta version, mostly stable, and should hit release likely by the end of the year. Not sure about your issue, make sure you dont have beta and aurora installed at the same time as it takes plenty of space on the device.

No, I had them seperately installed, but they have the same issues.

So on your Tablet does the nightly work better, and does it run Android 4.3?

Might want to try nightly - nightly.mozilla.org
