Hi

Did this - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-clear-private-data-firefox-android on my Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini Duos GT-I9192 running Android 4.2.2. but it doesn't work! Installed "CleanQuit" which works but sometimes it doesn't display when you go to the menu. Shouldn't need an add-on anyway. Please help?

Trevor.

So you're saying you go into the Clear Private Data dialog, clear the history, back out to a regular tab, tap the address bar, and your history is still there?

I think the only explanation identified for this so far was that this was a byproduct of one of Android's Developer Options. The workaround was:

Android Settings > Developer options > uncheck "Don't keep activities"
