This latest update constantly hangs requiring pages to be reloaded. I'm using my wireless and ATT network and both do the same even tho I have excellent signal.

Another issues is many times when I go to type comments, the comments box opens my keyboard (normal) and when you type the words are not appearing in the comment box but the cursor is moving like they are?

HI gcordle, I understand that the update does not complete. Do you have the settings in Firefox set to updates over wifi only?

  • You can check this in Settings > Customize > Download updates automatically
  • Also check your Google Play Update Settings to make sure they are also only set to updates over wifi or waiting for your approval.

For the later, what default keyboard are you using, do you have an example url, and what version of Android is this happening?

No, the Firefox update completed. I'm talking about various web pages that hang. The web version of FB hangs a lot and other pages as well.

Also, I use the Swype keyboard. It happens on Firefox 38.0.5. It happened yesterday when trying to log into my Firefox community account and many times on the web.
