Prerequisites

  • I verified that this is not a filter list issue. Report any issues with filter lists or broken website functionality in the uAssets issue tracker.
  • This is NOT a YouTube, Facebook or Twitch report. These sites MUST be reported by clicking their respective links.
  • This is not a support issue or a question. For support, questions, or help, visit /r/uBlockOrigin.
  • I performed a cursory search of the issue tracker to avoid opening a duplicate issue.
  • The issue is not present after disabling uBO in the browser.
  • I checked the documentation to understand that the issue I am reporting is not normal behavior.

I tried to reproduce the issue when...

  • uBO is the only extension.
  • uBO uses default lists and settings.
  • using a new, unmodified browser profile.

Description

URL: https://www.google.com/maps?entry=ml

Browser / Version: Firefox Mobile 149.0 (Fennec)
Operating System: Android 15
Tested Another Browser: Yes Other (firefox mobile and cromite mobile and thorium mobile (android))

Problem type: Site is not usable
Description: The page isn't loading properly.
Steps to Reproduce:
I can't load the Google Maps website on my Android 15 smartphone. It's as if the page is constantly refreshing. When trying to load the Google Maps page, it tries to load the about:blank page. Then it tries to load the Google Maps site again. This cycle continues nonstop. Every time it tries to load Google Maps, the URL changes. https://www.google.com/maps?entry=ml&coh=230964%2C230964%2C230964. Every time it tries to reload Google Maps, it adds the string %2C230964 to the web address (URL). This issue also occurs in desktop view mode. I don’t experience this problem in Cromite. In Fennec, Privacy and Security settings are disabled, and extensions are disabled.

Disabling the extension for the website doesn't work.

Opening the website in mobile or desktop mode doesn't work either.

Check the bug report page for this issue:
webcompat/web-bugs#216066

Browser Configuration
  • None

A specific URL where the issue occurs.

https://www.google.com/maps

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Create a new profile in Fennec with the default settings.
  2. Install the uBlock Origin extension.
  3. Restart the browser (force it to stop, then re-start the application).
  4. Open the URL https://www.google.com/maps.
  5. You should notice the bug.
  6. Disabling the extension for this site doesn’t work. You need to deactivate or uninstall the extension for Google Maps to work properly.

Expected behavior

The issue with the Google Maps website not loading needs to be resolved. The website should load even when the Google Maps extension is active.

Troubleshooting information

I don’t have that information. I don’t use Fennec or Firefox anymore.
