Re: Latest Firefox for Mobile (Fennec) for Fremantle
Aaah it seems that I cant compile it. Tried a billion times v17 for that 1 week+ that past but I always run into errors. Mozilla-beta(v18 and up) cant be compiled at all beacause Maemo SDK has one version of gcc and mozilla requires newer than that...

Re: Latest Firefox for Mobile (Fennec) for Fremantle
Hey all :) Today I build Fennec 18 for our beloved N900 and now Im writing this through it. I made a quick benchmark comparison between it and MicroB and the results are ~7700 ms (fennec 18) and ~21000(microB) - SunSpider Benchmark which shows that Fennec 18 is ~3x faster than MicroB. But here comes the problem - screen updating & scrolling in v18 are bugged which is very irritating. For example you want to scroll down - you drag your finger across the screen and expect the page to move with it, but it moves it when you take your finger away from the touchscreen. The build I made is very basic ( 5-6 lines mozconfig file) but I will try to make others(1 build takes ~4 hours...) with some optimizations and see what will come out :)
Edit: I cannot distribute it because its with official branding Edit2: Does anybody know where I can get gstreamer 0.10.33+ for the Maemo SDK so I can build Fennec with gstreamer support? |

Re: Latest Firefox for Mobile (Fennec) for Fremantle
I've currently got an old (very old) version of Fennec v7.1 (just never bothered updating).
I've now got Vladislav's catalogue set up (as per the guide linked to in wiki), so I'm being told by fapman there's a new version available (v17.01). I'm given the option to upgrade but fapman then tells me it's failed because there's a problem with my connection (highly unlikely) or there's a problem with my catalogues. If it's finding the new version then I can't se how the fault lies there either. Any ideas? Thankees. |

Edit: Now Im going off to work and I left the PC to compile Fennec with some optimizations but still without gstreamer support, hopefully there will be no errors so I can upload it and you will be able to test it :) |
Re: Latest Firefox for Mobile (Fennec) for Fremantle
Here is Fennec 18! Still scrolling is bugged and it is not suitable for everyday use (which is my purpose-to replace MicroB!) fennec_18.0_armel.deb - 14.7 MB

Re: Latest Firefox for Mobile (Fennec) for Fremantle
hello,
Sorry I'm a newbie but is this an unofficial update for firefox or is it a completely different application ? if it is firefox, will it replace the version I currently have on my phone ? btw nice post thank again ! |
Re: Latest Firefox for Mobile (Fennec) for Fremantle
Yes, this is unofficial update of Firefox for Maemo (Fennec) It will replace Fennec/Firefox in your phone! This build is for testing because it has a bug in the scrolling so you will be much likely to want to revert to your current version of fennec.

I would recommend you to install it through terminal Code:
sudo dpkg -i /path/to/fennec_18.deb |
Re: Latest Firefox for Mobile (Fennec) for Fremantle
I have tried your command but change 'sudo' by 'devel-su' :)
Code:
But it still does not work: |

Re: Latest Firefox for Mobile (Fennec) for Fremantle
Quick reply...
Fennec 18 on Fremantle, for some reason, depends on thumb0 versions of libqt libraries. Ideally, there should be separate builds of Fennec 18 for non-CSSU Fremantle, for CSSU-stable, for CSSU-testing, for CSSU-devel and for CSSU-thumb. I have CSSU-testing installed. Best wishes. |

Edit: I just build Fennec 17 with the same compiling options I used for Fennec 18 and it doesnt have that scrolling problem, that means that Mozilla has made a mistake somewhere... And I'm thinking of making my own thread to post fennec builds & such 'news' what do you think? |
Oups, very sorry I read too fast I was trying to install it on a N9.
By any chance do you know if Firefox for harmattan is still supported ? |

Re: Latest Firefox for Mobile (Fennec) for Fremantle
firefox 19
it comes with bunch of improvements if firefox will release updates in such a way I am afraid there would be shortage of numbers |
Re: Latest Firefox for Mobile (Fennec) for Fremantle
i just tried fennec 17 on thumb and it's actually usable. :)
thanks tanago! looking forward to FF18! |
Re: Latest Firefox for Mobile (Fennec) for Fremantle
I'm going off to work now, I already built stable(!) Fennec 17 for arm(not thumb) and when I come home I will make new thread and post everything there :p
The thread is live : http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=88682 ;) |
Re: Latest Firefox for Mobile (Fennec) for Fremantle
Due to the free hosting, I was using, my repository was down. I moved my blog to a paid hosting provider, so the repository is online again.
It looks like there is no acceptable free hosting provider for Wordpress. As for the browser, I installed Opera 12.1 recently and it's by far the best Maemo browser I've seen |
Yeah totally agree with you, Opera is very good. Hope they will keep it updated.

Although it has one disadvantage - it does not support html5 video (the Maemo build). |

Please note, that the patch (maemo.patch) from my website is intended for Fennec 17 and it might not work for 18. |

Re: Latest Firefox for Mobile (Fennec) for Fremantle
maemo gstreamer is pretty enough, look https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=836243

Re: Latest Firefox for Mobile (Fennec) for Fremantle
Quick question...
Any progress? Best wishes. _________________ Per aspera ad astra... |
Re: Latest Firefox for Mobile (Fennec) for Fremantle
any chance of a deb for us mere mortals? it looks like it should be able to use maemo gstreamer.

I don't now about the gstreamer but you can find the .deb here http://repository.vladislavonline.co...17.0_armel.deb :D |
