Anyway to fix download fail using Firefox for Android. I've given all permissions but when investigating it says need more permissions. Am I missing something?

Hi

When you first try to download something using Firefox for Android, Firefox will check to make sure it is allowed to download a file to your device. If allowed beyond that one instance, you should not be asked this again.
