To provide a controlled roll-out, we will be activating the Loop / Hello service slowly over the course of Beta 34, Beta 35/Release 34, and Release 35 (See Loop/Load_Handling#Recommended_Handling).

However, certain people (e.g., testers, select media contacts) may have a legitimate need to activate the feature prior to it being rolled out in their browser. To accommodate these situations, the feature may be activated using the following steps:

In the URL bar, enter "about:config": About-config.png

If a the "This might void your warranty" warning comes up, click "I'll be careful I promise!"

In the "Search" field, type in "loop.throttled": Set-throttled.png

If set to "true", double click on the "true" -- it should change to "false."

Now, restart Firefox.

Click on the menu button and click "Customize"

Click on "Exit Customize." The feature is now activated and ready to use.
