Firefox Mobile (Fennec) Nightly Builds

[Lobo89]

Has anyone been successful in getting the Fennec nightly builds to run on the Hero? I'm getting to the home screen, but it then crashes before I can do anything.

Here's the link (select the ARMv6 Experimental build):

I was actually wondering about this too. Firefox 4 for mobile looks really nice.

The only drawback is that it takes up a HUGE amount of internal memory. Something on the order of 40MB+ of space. Of course, it is only a beta at this point. Mozilla claims they will halve that number by the time it has a full release version out.

I could never get it to run on my phone either. I want it because I use it at home, but alas no Fennec for you says the mozilla nazi

Same here, installed it, opened it annnddd nothing happened, plus I got the dreaded your phone is running low on storage space.. I'll stick with opera for now

It looks like the nightly has been updated. At least, the file name changed significantly. That said, I'm still getting the same result:

Welcome page - Ok
Browse page - crash

I was able to back into a web page by clicking the More Features link and then changing the url once it timed out. Once it loaded, though, it just crashed like the home page. Oh well.
