I didn’t keep the .XPI file, unfortunately. Is it possible from a phone’s file structure to export or even build this from(/out of?) a currently installed add-on that can no longer be (easily) downloaded?
Root is not impossible
What android version? Can you unlock the bootloader?
All you need is a release zip for the OS with boot.img and init_boot.img
Patch them in the magisk, app, flash them with fastboot, and you are rooted
But you might be able to access the internal app storage over USB (MTP)
I’ve got an S25 and I’d really like to keep the incredible security of Knox; rooting it would irreversibly trigger and disable it. I guess I could poke around with MTP…
It should still be in your ff profile folder under extensions/
If there is only the $extensionName.zip just rename to .xpi
Edit: I missed the keyword “Android” in your post. Without root there shouldn’t be a way to recover the extension, afaik.
Darn, I was about to ask lol. Well, now I know what else to yet keep another backup of from now on…
Does Android give you access to this?
Total Commander didn’t show any extensoion file in none of:
Android -> data [ -> org.mozilla.firefox ] -> media -> obbthese (and I have several: uBlock, clearURLs, Canvas, …)
With root, I was able to find my extension in the /data/data folder.
I’m on rooted PixelOS and only thing I have under data that’s related to firefox are:
Android -> data -> org.mozilla.firefox -> files -> Downloadsand there is 0 files
You’re looking in the wrong place. You need to be looking in /data/data, not /sdcard/Android/data.
located it under:
/data_mirror/data_ce/null/0/org.mozilla.firefox/files/mozilla/5476rl0j.default/extensions
