isnt recommended download firefox in other sites, but i understand what you are talking, some programs, addons you only can do download on play store or google play etc.. very boring it
So i dont recommend but i did a search in google and i found this site:
- <strike>http://firefox. br. uptodown. com/android</strike>
edit: This is a unofficial download site. Mozilla has all versions available.

This is the official server for the APK file:
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mobile/releases/latest/android/en-US/
Forgot to mention: for a different language, after opening that link, click up the parent directory.

Note that the mobile Firefox Release and Beta builds installed manually with apk do not get software updates so you will need to install each new release manually. The next on Firefox 27.0 is scheduled for February 4.
Quite a list of variants of phones for Samsung Galaxy S4 however I believe all of the cpu's it uses is ARMv7 so the official link above posted by jscher2000 should work as the other two are for ARMv6 and Intel Atom.
Here is a cdn link as the ftp is not mirrored. http://download.cdn.mozilla.net/pub/mozilla.org/mobile/releases/latest/

Thanks for all your comments but what do i do with all the files in the directories? Cheers
Hi billsmith747, on an Android site you should find the steps needed to install an APK file on your device. You may need to go into the settings first to allow it if you haven't already done so.
