Firefox on Android sync returns "could not sign in"
I have Firefox for Android beta v39 and Firefox for Android v38 installed on my phone (Lollipop 5.0.2) and no matter which one of these browsers I try, when i login for sync, it gives the message "could not log in".. I have v38 installed on my linux desktop and it works with the same credentials. I tried resetting the password also and that also doesn't help, as the problem still remains the same.. sync on desktop works and it doesn't work on Android. Any suggestions?

I understand that Firefox for Android returns: "could not sign in" I am happy to help. Let's try a new login by removing the account first.
- First disconnect the account from the Android Settings under "Accounts"
- After tapping remove, open a new window in Firefox
- Go to https://accounts.firefox.com
- Sign in once more and make sure that in your Account Settings, that Data Usage is set to auto sync.
For troubleshooting, do you have any content blockers or proxies/filters on your device?
