This bug was fixed in the package firefox - 36.0+build2-0ubuntu0.14.04.4

---------------
firefox (36.0+build2-0ubuntu0.14.04.4) trusty-security; urgency=medium

  * New upstream stable release (FIREFOX_36_0_BUILD2)
    - see USN-2505-1

  * Refresh patches
    - update debian/patches/unity-menubar.patch
    - update debian/patches/ubuntu-ua-string-changes.patch
    - update debian/patches/dont-include-hyphenation-patterns.patch
    - update debian/patches/dont-override-general-useragent-locale.patch
  * Don't clone the nightly profile from the default profile at startup
    - update debian/firefox.sh.in
  * Don't use --with-app-basename to create the co-installable nightly build
    as it's not useful anymore, and changing the application name to
    "Firefox-Trunk" has always been problematic for code / addons that check
    the appname. Continue to use --with-app-name as before (which just changes
    the install name and the remoting name), and add a patch to introduce
    --with-app-profile, which allows us to change the profile location
    - update debian/build/rules.mk
    - update debian/build/config.mk
    - update debian/config/mozconfig.in
    - update debian/rules
    - add debian/patches/support-coinstallable-trunk-build.patch
    - add debian/patches/set-prgname-to-remoting-name.patch
    - update debian/patches/series
  * Install the gmp-clearkey directory
  * Add Google OAuth ID so contact import for Hello works (LP: #1401402)
  * Add Uzbek language pack
  * Add patch from Bugzilla to implement non-Skia fallback for unaccelerated
    rendering of 3D transforms to fix a build failure on platforms where Skia
    is not supported
    - add debian/patches/add-non-skia-fallback.patch
    - update debian/patches/series
  * Backport patch to fix a build failure in IonMonkey on platforms without
    a codegen
    - add debian/patches/fix-ion-ftbfs.patch
    - update debian/patches/series
  * Backport patch to fix a build failure in some unified builds
    - add debian/patches/fix-unified-ftbfs.patch
    - update debian/patches/series

Title:
  Ubuntu build of Firefox lacks Google OAuth ID, prevents contact import
  in Hello

Status in The Mozilla Firefox Browser:
  Confirmed
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Starting from verstion 34.0, Firefox, including Ubuntu build thereof, supports WebRTC based voice/video communication feature named "Hello":
  https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-hello-make-receive-calls-without-account

  This feature works in Ubuntu build, except importing contacts from Google account:
  https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1106854
  Attempt to import contacts results in this Google error page:
  ====
  401. That’s an error.

  Error: invalid_client

  The OAuth client was not found.
  Request Details

      scope=https://www.google.com/m8/feeds
      response_type=code
      redirect_uri=urn:ietf:wg:oauth:2.0:oob:auto
      client_id=no-google-oauth-api-clientid
  ====

  Apparently, for the import feature to work, the build needs to include Google OAuth Client ID. The process is discussed here:
  https://wiki.mozilla.org/Loop/OAuth_Setup

  Apparently, Ubuntu's build of Firefox does not include this Client ID.
  Please consider adding it. Hopefully then "Hello" will be fully functional, including contacts import.
