I have a Nexus 4 with T-Mobile, and for some reason my home page for my browser is set to "www.goolgle.com" instead of "www.Google.com." Every time I open my browser I get the 'page not found' screen and I have to manually type in the correct site in the URL bar. How do I change my home page from the misspelled version to the correct one, or, for that matter, to anything else? I can't find home page settings anywhere on my device or browser. Thank you in advance for any help, it's very much appreciated!

It is not possible to set a home-page in Firefox for Android. You can restore default settings to rid of your situation by opting to wipe the data and cache from Firefox for Android should one choose. I'm not sure why you're seeing a page open automatically. Are you launching from a home-screen shortcut from a bookmark? Are you sure you're launching Firefox and not your stock Android browser?
