Can't see (< 5k) desktop bookmarks in Android 4.4.4

I'm running Android 4.4.4 on Google Nexus 5. I can't get my desktop bookmarks to sync to the phone, tho all else sync's fine. I cut my bookmarks down to 1700, synced the desktop, and still none appearing on FF Android after re-syncing. I disconnected the account on my phone and reconnected it. It appeared to sync. Still nothing. I manually synced again on both the desktop and phone, and still no desktop bookmarks appearing, tho everything else is. I repeated above steps several times and same thing.

Any ideas?

You will probably need to reset the account to force a fresh Sync. First I would try removing the account and relogging in. If that does not fix it then you may need to do an account reset by changing your password.

Thanks., I tried that to no avail. I disconnected my desktop FF from the account and removed the account on my phone. I reconnected first desktop and then phone, and resync'ed both, and no change. I then reset my password, disconnected the phone account, reconnected, and resync'ed -- same results.

I'm in Indonesia (VPN"ed to Singapore now) -- could that make a diff? BTW, I count my book marks by exporting them both to json and html, and it says 1,605.

Any more ideas?
