firefox for android cannot send intent for custom url schema.

my application uses oAuth to authentication, that uses callback url it has custom url schema.

example: myapp://oauth/callback~~~~

android default browser correctly handles it, send intent that has url, then os manages intent and send it to my app.

but firefox does not. I think firefox should send intent if the url is not supported by the browser. or, firefox should send intent for any location url.

Hmm, that's strange. This should work in Firefox. For example, "market:" URLs open the Market app in Firefox, and "vnd.youtube:" URLs open the YouTube app.

If your application and web page are publicly available, can you give us a pointer to them so that we can test them out? If not, a minimal test case might also help.

Which version of Firefox for Android are you using?

OK, I've retry now, it's worked.

but, verrrry slow.

- address bar shows "Twitter / アプリへ転送します"(redirect to application) - waiting 30 sec. - then "プログラムを起動(start program)" dialog is popped up.

my 3nd try is little faster than 2nd try. maybe have to reset firefox's application data before try this for reappear problem.
