I am able to bookmark a site, but "Bookmarks" button does not appear.

HTC Evo 4G. Firefox mobile browser 20.0.1

Using Firefox browser, if I am at a website and press "Menu" on my phone I have the "Bookmark" option. Pressing it I get "Bookmark added" message.

But then when I press "Menu", it gives me the "Bookmark" option still (i.e., add a Bookmark), but it does not show me any of the Bookmarks which I have created.

Are "Top sites" my bookmarks?

I'm ready to go back to the stock Android browser if this and one other problem cannot be resolved with Firefox.

The other issue is that I press the Firefox icon on my home screen, and the browser initializes.

The address bar says "Enter Search or Address". I press the address bar, and it now says "about:home", and the letters are white covered in orange.

But there is no keyboard.

I want to type an address in the address bar, but I cannot.

Pressing "Menu" on my phone does not give me a "Keyboard" option.

Below the address bar is listed horizontally "Top sites", "Bookmarks", and "History". But no Qwerty keyboard.

NOTE - During the time I've been typing this, a QWERTY keyboard finally appeared.


But I want to see one at once, when I press the address bar and it turns orange over the address bar writing.

Why don't I see a keyboard?

I will go back to the stock EVO browser if these problems can't be solved.


I press the address bar at the top, and it turns orange. But I do not get a keyboard. Pressing menu, I also do not get a keyboard.

With the stock HTC EVO ANDROID browser, if I touch the address bar a keyboard appears. If I press "Menu", I get "Add Bookmark" but also "Bookmarks" (my existing bookmarks).

This is wasting a great deal of time. Please help - I prefer to use Firefox, but it is unacceptable currently.

Regarding your first question about bookmarks, I think you discovered the answer in when you pressed the address bar. The second tab there has your bookmarks.

As for the keyboard, I'm not sure why your Firefox is reacting so slowly; mine seems to show keyboards even when I don't want them. If you have accumulated a lot of history, perhaps that's an issue?

Did you use any third party software to move your Firefox data from internal memory to the storage card?
