How do I deactivate Master Password for log-ins on other synced devices after deactivating Master Password on synced Android device?

Okay, so I really screwed up this time. I created a password for my login on my Android tablet and other devices with Firefox on them.

As it turned out, I found using a Master Password to be very inconvenient and got rid of the requirement on my Android tablet.

However, for whatever reason, the Master Password requirement on the other devices will not deactivate without putting in the Master Password.

Unfortunately for me, I have already forgotten what it was and it was randomly generated.

Come to think of it, why doesn't Sync tell other connected devices that the Master Password requirement is revoked?

How do I fix this problem without losing login data?

UPDATE: Okay, so I just double checked Firefox on my Windows PC and the Master Password is deactivated.

I double checked Firefox on my tablet and it's still deactivated there.

So what going on with my phone that has Android 6.0.1 on it?
