When using fennec 32.0.3 I keep having a problem where the browser just exits back to my device home screen on sites like tumbler. I've set my browser to run in desktop mode. I run clean quit but that isn't issue because all my cookies, browser history etc.. are still there when reopening the browser. I've tried running fennec 33 and 34 neither work at all on my device Samsung S4 4.2.2 sgh-m919. I've seen other people running Samsung devices with 4.2.2 also having problem. I tried contacting Mozilla about this twice and never heard back other then "We are sorry you're having a problem"

Please update to the latest version of Firefox for Android and post back if this still happens.

DID NOT WORK AT ALL!!!! After update to latest version browser just closes after 15 seconds. This is the reason I did not update. Now I lost everything bookmarks addons to return back to 32.0.3. I'm using phony in desktop, clean quit adblocker and flashplayer for ics, tried to check school closings at http://detroit.cbslocal.com/first-school-closings/ 32.0.3 would close when trying to open page. 34.0.1 closes on the default home page for the browser 15 sec after opening the browser. ITS NOT CRASHING!!! It just quits. no fault log nothing
