Start Firefox on Android
Under Android you cannot directly simply start applications using command line. You must have root privileges to do that (su). Also Android's applications are not based on executable files but on activities concept. So you need also to start the activity manage (am). So the complete command line to start Firefox under Android is :
Your Android devise must be rooted to have root acces... but if you are running XBMC on it, it is surely the case.
So, the corresponding stand-alone launcher settings into Advanced Launcher to start Firefox will be :
Application : /bin/su
Arguments : -c 'am start org.mozilla.firefox/.App'
People interested to discuss about Advanced Launcher support on Android are invited to do it on the Advanced Launcher dedicated forum : http://www.gwenael.org/forum/viewforum.php?id=16
