Error with Pale Moon on Android 8.0

Unread post by garryjoshi » 2018-01-15, 12:50

Been using Pale Moon on my Note 8 earlier which was running Android 7.0 Nougat. Today that I updated to Android 8.0 Oreo it only loads a white blank screen and automatically closes itself after few seconds. Anyone else encountering same issue? How do I fix it?

You probably can't fix it.

...and you may already know it's a security risk: viewtopic.php?f=1&t=17097&p=125638

Though some of us are hoping that someone may revive it at some point.

Just a quick update: I simply uninstalled and reinstalled Pale Moon browser and now it seem to be working just fine once again :) I would also like to say that guys please don't end support and updates for this browser I have been using it for so long now and probably is one THE BEST. Just don't give up on it I am sure there's way around working it out.

There is - it needs volunteers to update and maintain it...

Good to see the problem has been resolved. I was about to suggest the same thing, to uninstall and re-install as this is the first thing to do when an app is making problem. However I saw you tried this and fixed the problem.

It would be great to see maintenance and support is continued..
