I have a private xpi file signed by the Add-on Development Center (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/developers/addon/ac8d29fc4139468ebdf5/edit). I would like to install this on android's Firefox Nightly. However, when you install it, the download is completed, and when you "Open" it shows: 

   The file could not be opened.

Is displayed and installation is not possible. It works well on Firefox Windows. Please tell me.
