I think the thing you have tried isn't the proper way to solve here problem. So you can do this:

  • At first, toggle browser.formfill.enable to true and browser.urlbar.autocomplete.enable to true. (Unless you can't open your menubar)
  • Now tap on menubar. Which is usually a hamburger like icon on the bottom of your device.
  • Select Settings > Customize > Home and uncheck Show site suggestion
  • Then go back to Customize and tap on Search. Uncheck Show search suggestion

I think this will help.

Yes it seems that this feature only turns off search suggestion. I have tried to turn off site suggestion but may be there is no option. Because about:config doesn't have all the urlbar option in Firefox for Android which is available for Firefox desktop browser.

Yes, go to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/ and create your feature request under the proper category (which in this case is Firefox for Android).
