When I start Firefox for Android, I see a black screen with a small top banner labelled "Firefox." However, seconds later, it terminates and returns me to the last screen I was on. This happens even after a reboot and whether it's installed in device memory or on my MicroSD card.

My Android device is an Acer Liquid E. It is running the official Android v2.2 release from Acer. My mobile carrier is Fido. Here's some additional information:

  • Baseband version: A1-05.01.05
  • Kernel version: 2.6.29
  • Build number: Acer_LiquidE_4.004.04_PA_FIDO
  • Acer APN version: 1.109-1
  • Product SKU: PA_FIDO
  • Device info version: 2.1
  • CPU vendor: Qualcomm
  • CPU speed: 768
  • CPU version: 8250
  • ROM size: 512
  • RAM size: 512
  • Free device space: 38.21 MB
  • Free MicroSD space: 5.72 GB

There's a known bug that causes Firefox to crash at startup on some Acer Liquid phones, though I don't know if it affects the Liquid E: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=606194

If you happen to have the Android developer tools installed, you can help us figure this out by running the "adb logcat" command while starting Firefox and sending us the output.
