Firefox is using excessive via "Background App Refresh" battery charge - Although setting being decommissioned.

I have background App refresh disabled - the scale of the system. However, the Firefox application has managed to get a huge 8.6 hours of substantive activity App Refresh... and eat an important piece of my battery charge in the process. He has used more battery than the Safari app, even if I used just the Firefox App Firefox does NOT respect (and iOS is obviously not properly apply) the updating of the background App setting.

The Firefox application won a quick deletion of my iPhone. I can give him a second chance in the future, when Apple and Mozilla had the chance to solve this fundamental problem App update.

Attached are two screenshots. The first is my screen background App update, which shows that I have background App refresh disabled in its entirety and the second, my main screen of the battery, which shows the excessive amount of the battery used by "Background App refresh." Firefox is a flagrant violation in the Protocol of the battery by the Firefox app... and unfortunately, iOS has allowed it to happen.

I am very pleased to announce that the issue of excessive background use I had experienced with a previous version of Firefox for iOS is part of Firefox version 1.2! I now use the normal battery with little or no background activity. I am very pleased and I intend to continue to use Firefox on iOS regularly.

  • serious security problem with background app refresh (i5 - ios9.2)

    Just discovered that my iphone 5 (ios 9.2) do not listen to update background app at the level settings or individual app phone.

    In my case, "Whatsapp' application is able to bypass this setting (which is defined to restrict the level of the phone or app) but it is still able to download the messages as long as the phone is attached to wifi

    Please note: this is not a bug in whats app - it's a bug with ios 9.2 - that I can confirm with my phone and tested.

    I really hope that apple engineers are aware of this and put a fix as soon as possible.

    Another drawback of this is, it drains dough at least 30-40% more per day!

    Say to Apple.

  • Projector does not? Try to kill background apps

    Spotlight on my iPhone Chess 6 were driving me crazy. About half the time Spotlight returns no results.

    After much trial and error I found that killing a background app, Reeder, 3 (reeder.app) solved the problem. I don't think it's a bug of Reeder, I think it's just that my habits of the user with power supply/Reeder are facing a set of 9.x bugs related to the management of background applications. I had already turned off "Background App Refresh" and Spotlight indexing most of the applications, but I still had to hit kill the background application.

    I wrote my results here: http://tech.kateva.org/2016/01/ios-9-spotlight-fail-fixed-by-killing.html.

    This may get fixed to the 9.3, but in the meantime experiment with updated death of background apps - even if you do not use Reeder. You can find one or two that are particularly problematic.

    This seems quite as if the problem is a bug with Reeder not closing properly in the background. Most of these 'background apps' do not run in the background. They are used most recently.

  • IOS 5 s 10 Messages background activity cause battery drain

    Hello

    After I got updated to 10.0.1 on my iPhone iOS 5 I noticed that more than 45% of the use of the battery is for 'Activity from bottom of Messages'. Is this some kind of a bug? Is there a temporary solution for this? [image attached]

    Thank you.

    Hello isurusam,
    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

    If I understand your post using your posts up to 44% of your usage time of battery after update to iOS 10.0.1. I recommend maximizing your battery life by following the advice in the article from the link below:

    Maximize the life of the battery and battery life

    Background activity. This indicates that the battery has been used by the application while he was in the background - in other words, while you were using another application.

    • To improve the battery life, you can disable the feature that allows applications to background refresh. Go to settings > general > background App refresh and turn the switch to Off.

    Best regards

  • can I use my own background of start page in firefox?

    ICAN, I use my own background of start page in firefox as I can to the opera? See photo

    You can try to install https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/new-tab-tools or https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/background-image - I think that they should allow Firefox to have a background image on the new tab Page, as it is in opera.

  • Need to install firefox for use on computer without a browser.

    I'm trying to locate a download of an installer of firefox for use on win32 systems. Do for your site restrictions by asking questions that I can't find this download. I'm being achieved through hundreds of pages of information and pictures on how to do an installation via the web using a firefox install stub. I don't need this. So I decided to try and like a question. This required the implementation of another account to access user requiring the try on a dozen usernames and three different passwords in order to obtain sufficient information to identify an acceptable name and password for your account installation routine. I have now lost three hours. Can everything that I wanted to ask is where I download a full installation routine so I can do an installation on a group of computers that I update offline?

    Full "offline" installation packages are available here:

  • How to get the video intro off my google home screen I already saw it, where is the firefox logo used to be.

    How to get the video intro off my google home screen I already saw it, where is the firefox logo used to be. I started with the last update that I rebooted.

    Hello
    to change the homepage when opening firefox-press 'Alt' and click on tools-> Options.

    Main menu, you can change the URL.

    If the problem persists, you can follow these simple steps:

    Enter about: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Accept the message of 'dragons' to see the Advanced preferences screen. Use the above search box to enter the below pref.

    You can assign an empty string to stop your Firefox to retrieve "extracts" and brandLogo changes the browser.aboutHomeSnippets.updateUrl pref. Right-click this pref and select Edit then clear the value as pref in the box that appears, and then click OK. Who will also disable "snippets" that appear under the container of the research on the default home page.

    Then you must open the folder of your profile, via help > Troubleshooting Information > profile folder > > button view folder. Then close Firefox. Your profile file open with Firefox closed (Firefox '3-bar' menu key > exit/Quit), wait or two minutes, then remove the storage\moz-safe-about + home folder in the Firefox profile folder to remove the brandLogo and stored in IndexedDB code snippets to make Firefox use the default brandLogo and a defined default code snippet.

    If you later change your mind about these changes, you can reset the pref browser.aboutHomeSnippets.updateUrl via the context menu and Reset allows to retrieve the default value using the storage\moz-chest-fort-about + home folder again.

  • Unable to update via the App Store system software or download

    Hello

    (I'm new to this forum and hopefully the below is enough for others to understand my problem)

    Since I have my Macbook Pro I have a huge problem for updating the software via the App store or by

    Download the files of the Apple update supports pages (for example osxupdcombo10.11.2.dmg).

    The ONLY way for me to update the software system is through resettlement (command-R during the boot process) of the

    system via the web, which i, in my case, a procedure of 5 hours each time.

    In the appstore, the need for updates is displayed, but when I click on the respective install button, the installation requirements

    are briefly "calculated" for 2-5 seconds, then the process stops without having to install anything.

    When I download the .dmg on the support page file, I can convert it to a .pkg file and start the installation. The process is running

    me through the entire list of subjects required to install (accept the terms, select the location to install etc etc) asks me to restart... but then

    nothing happens / past: the old version of the system continues to operate my MacBook. Using the procedure for re-Setup "command-R-Start-up.

    whenever I have slowly migrated to Yosemite to El Captain lion (now at 10.11.2), but it's certainly in the right way.

    I have been in contact with the local (German) Apple support hotline. They even have access to my computer to watch what I'm doing and how my problem

    If displays on the screen, however, could not help and promised to call back by the technician never happened.

    Recently, I was able to solve a problem of not being able to remove all the cards in 'Contacts' following a detailed recipe posted by Linc Davis in this forum.

    So I thought that Linc or someone else in the forum could help me with my problems of update.

    Thanks in advance

    When a person subscribes to my magazine via the App store or Play store I publish a question, is there a way I can identify so that the user using a transaction ID or something similar?

    Ideally such user could identify a site, where we would attribute a promotional code for it, which could be used respectively for subscription in Play store or App store.

  • Adobe Muse CC fails to download/install use dektop Creative Suite App

    Hello

    Adobe Muse CC fails to download/install use dektop Creative Suite App or via the web site.

    For info.

    (1) it's Creative Suite team

    (2) other Apps (photoshop, illustrator, inDesign) download / install OK

    (3) win7 PC platform - machine rebooted etc.

    Advice please

    Thank you

    Pete

    For the people who sent me the same problem... THE Muse CC will not download/install

    In my case it was because of a legacy version of Adobe Air (installed through CS6) which would be update or delete using the updated standard Adobe, or using the feature of panel\programs & features\uninstall microsoft\control

    To resolve this problem, you need the tool of register of Mircrosoft Fixit from here:

    http://support.Microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall/en-us

    Run the tool of naming 'Adobe Air' as the program that could not be uninstalled... it took awhile, but finally finished uninstalling.

    Then I could just install Adobe Air from the MuseCC & using standard abobe installers.

    Hope this helps

    was soon Pete
