Q: where are the changed values of about:config stored?
On my Xperia 10 I use Fennec and made some changes in about:config. To save them for setting it up again later, i want to find the configuration file where the changes are stored, but i can’t find it. Does anyone know? Thanks for any hint!
Look at (or similar)
/home/.appsupport/instance/defaultuser/data/data/org.mozilla.firefox/files/mozilla/{{profile_browser_android_path}}/
it should be the prefs.js file.
/home/.appsupport/... doesn’t exist.
there’s only appsupport-root and .android present.
exactly this prefs.js file is what i’m searching for! Found it easily for stock browser and desktop firefox but for Fennec in AAS it’s well hidden.
in ‘appsupport-root’ there’s only Pictures and videos.
found it here:
/home/.android/data/data/org.mozilla.fennec_fdroid/files/mozilla/0iit0jlb.default
inside is the wanted prefs.js. Thanks for your hint @leon.
the 0iit0jlb part of the last dir seems to be individual for each device, so please nobody simply c+p the path but better first have a look how your last dir is named.
Don’t know if it works for Fennec, but usually on Mozilla browsers you can look at about:profiles to find the right path and profile dir name.
This shows an invalid address error and does nothing at my Fennec. But fortunately i found it meanwhile, see above. Thank you so much!
