Adblock Latitude with PM Android ?

Post by Couperin » 2015-01-24, 13:23

Just upgraded to PM Android 25.2, uninstalled Adblock Plus prior to upgrading. When I try to now install Latitude, I'm told it's incompatible with 25.2 ?

PM4A is largely based on standard mobile FF (Fennec) code, including the product GUID, so you can still use ABP with it.

I realize this is probably a known issue, and that the post above dates from January and it's now March, but, in case --

I just got Pale Moon for Android for my new phone, and tried to put AdBlock Plus on it. However, I get a message that it can't be installed because it is "not compatible with Pale Moon 25.3." This is a Moto X (2013) running KitKat 4.4.4 (not rooted).

Both of my tablets have Pale Moon 25.3 also, and as far as I can tell, AdBlockPlus was "grandfathered in" and works normally. As a test, I removed ABP from one of my tablet Pale Moons, tried to re-install it, and cannot. (Nexus 7 2012, one has Lollipop 5.1 and the other has KitKit 4.4.4; both are not-rooted.)

AdBlock Edge does seem to work on Pale Moon for Android, so I am using that for right now.

(Ghostery, also, which works on Firefox for Android, does not work on Pale Moon for Android, although I see a previous thread mentions this already, so it sounds like that is a known issue.)

It may simply be version bump issues. Just use an older version. But there are NO current plans to offer ABL for android.

Thank you. :) Sorry if it seems like an obvious thing, but, when you say "just use an older version," are you referring to:

- an older version of Pale Moon for Android?
- an older version of AdBlock Plus?
- or, older versions of both?

Of Adblock Plus.

Ok. Thanks, Supernova. I will give that a try at some point and see what happens. :)

As noted above, AdBlock Edge does seem to work (when installing it from AMO). I'm fine with that, too, if I can't get AdBlock Plus to work.

Your issue is probably caused by a recent update of ABP.
ABE follow ABP updates slower.
