Hi,

I'm unable to select text in firefox 41.0.2 on Android 5.1.1 + Cyanogenmod 12.1.

I've tried the procedure indicated on https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-copy-and-paste-text-android

Unfortunately long press on a word doesn't trigger selection and there is a floating text pointer on all pages that is always displayed (see capture attached)

Seems something goes wrong Regards Tim
