[Guide] Install any .xpi extension in Firefox Android [ROOT]

Search This thread
This guide is purely for educational purposes. I am not responsible for anything wrong that happens to your browser when doing this method.

Also note that this isn't a very user friendly way of doing it. This is purely for educational purposes. I'll provide a user-friendly way of doing it soon!!






Follow the steps exactly as I do in the video or follow steps below video





YouTube Tutorial






*
Requirements*






1. Rooted phone with Magisk


2. A file explorer!!

3. My extension template






Steps:


1. Find what extension you want to download. Any links from Gitlab or GitHub will work. For example, any extension with the release links on GitHub you will copy into your clipboard.


2. Download my template and store is somewhere. You'll be editing THREE things inside it. They are the following:



public","url":"INSERT URL HERE!!!!!",

"name":"INSERT NAME HERE!!!!",

"summary":"INSERT SUMMARY HERE!!!",



You will replace url with the url download link to the xpi file you copied into your clipboard.

Add a name to the extension

Then lastly, provide a summary.

Save the file.




3. Copy the entire code to your clipboard. Then, with a root browser, navigate to this location:



/data_mirror/data_ce/0/org.mozilla.fenix/files



You will see a file called: mozilla_components_addon_collection_en_Extensions-for-Android.json

Open it up with a text editor







Scroll all the way to the bottom where there will be ":null}]} at the end of the code




Delete the last two characters: ]} and add "," Then PASTE your code.






4. Once pasted, make sure the end of the code ends with


]}


5. Close Firefox and relaunch it. You should see an additional extension added at the bottom of the list of extensions.








6.
Profit!!!!!!!





Additional Notes



I will be making an Apk or a script soon that will make the process much easier and quicker. I'll provide more updates soon!!!!

The bare minimum skeleton you need to add to mozilla_components_addon_collection_en_Extensions-for-Android.json is:

JSON:
{
    "addon":
    {
        "authors":
        [],
        "categories": null,
        "created": "2001-01-01T00:00:00Z",
        "current_version":
        {
            "version": "<- version from manifest.json ->",
            "files":
            [
                {
                    "id": 1,
                    "url": "http://path/to/your.xpi",
                    "permissions":
                    [
                        "<- all permissions from manifest.json ->"
                    ]
                }
            ]
        },
        "description":
        {},
        "guid": "<- id from manifest.json ->",
        "icon_url": null,
        "last_updated": "2023-09-23T111:19:42Z",
        "name": "<- name from manifest.json ->",
        "ratings": null,
        "summary":
        {},
        "url": null
    }
}

This is for v118 based on https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/f...nents/feature/addons/amo/AMOAddonsProvider.kt

Other version may differ.
This doesn't only work in Nightly but also in forks like Fenix and Mull (F-Droid)

e.g. to add OPs Bypass Paywalls Firefox Clean to Fenix (Fennec on F-Droid) you add:

JSON:
...
        {
            "addon":
            {
                "authors":

                "categories": null,
                "created": "2001-01-01T00:00:00Z",
                "current_version":
                {
                    "version": "3.3.4.6",
                    "files":
                    [
                        {
                            "id": 1,
                            "url": "https://gitlab.com/magnolia1234/bpc-uploads/-/raw/master/bypass_paywalls_clean-3.3.4.0.xpi",
                            "permissions":
                            [
                                "cookies",

to /data/data/org.mozilla.fenix/files/mozilla_components_addon_collection_en_Extensions-for-Android.json

Fix owner, e.g.:

chown u0_a216:u0_a216 mozilla_components_addon_collection_en_Extensions-for-Android.json

and permission:

chmod 600 mozilla_components_addon_collection_en_Extensions-for-Android.json

(optionial) It may not hurt to change the last modified date to the future to prevent Fenix from updating the file:

touch -a -m -t 209901010000.00 mozilla_components_addon_collection_en_Extensions-for-Android.json

Then force-close/restart Fenix, open Addons and install Bypass Paywalls Clean (+)

Note that this still implies the addon in question is actually compatible with Firefox Mobile (depends) and probably only works with signed addons (untested).

Cheers

    This guide is purely for educational purposes. I am not responsible for anything wrong that happens to your browser when doing this method.

    Also note that this isn't a very user friendly way of doing it. This is purely for educational purposes. I'll provide a user-friendly way of doing it soon!!






    Follow the steps exactly as I do in the video or follow steps below video





    YouTube Tutorial






    *
    Requirements*






    1. Rooted phone with Magisk


    2. A file explorer!!

    3. My extension template






    Steps:


    1. Find what extension you want to download. Any links from Gitlab or GitHub will work. For example, any extension with the release links on GitHub you will copy into your clipboard.


    2. Download my template and store is somewhere. You'll be editing THREE things inside it. They are the following:



    public","url":"INSERT URL HERE!!!!!",

    "name":"INSERT NAME HERE!!!!",

    "summary":"INSERT SUMMARY HERE!!!",



    You will replace url with the url download link to the xpi file you copied into your clipboard.

    Add a name to the extension

    Then lastly, provide a summary.

    Save the file.




    3. Copy the entire code to your clipboard. Then, with a root browser, navigate to this location:



    /data_mirror/data_ce/0/org.mozilla.fenix/files



    You will see a file called: mozilla_components_addon_collection_en_Extensions-for-Android.json

    Open it up with a text editor







    Scroll all the way to the bottom where there will be ":null}]} at the end of the code




    Delete the last two characters: ]} and add "," Then PASTE your code.






    4. Once pasted, make sure the end of the code ends with


    ]}


    5. Close Firefox and relaunch it. You should see an additional extension added at the bottom of the list of extensions.








    6.
    Profit!!!!!!!





    Additional Notes



    I will be making an Apk or a script soon that will make the process much easier and quicker. I'll provide more updates soon!!!!
