winston · 20th June 2008

well I just posted this from my phone so if you can read this....it works....Excellent!

horatio · 20th June 2008

What browser are you using? IE doesn't let me post on the forum (just doesn't work), and I don't want to buy Opera. Well, it didn't work the one time I tried to post the TT times from East Beers.

gabes · 20th June 2008

I just did the typing TT on my phone...

andyp · 20th June 2008

Which phone?

horatio · 20th June 2008

Ah yeah, I guess it could be one of those "i" phones. Pfft. (I'm using a good ol' HTC with Windows Mobile).

teenslain · 20th June 2008

I'm totally down with the whole mobile LFGSS shiz! Currently in a Korean restaurant in St Giles High St... Awesome!

badtmy · 20th June 2008

yeah mobile lfgss is gold. as is opera for s60.

winston · 20th June 2008

HTC tytnII on ie ...windows mobile 6.1 ....I had no probs with main site on my phone either though....

h2o · 21st June 2008

Don't work on Blackberry :'-(

VB can we get the PDA menu applied to threads, or is that too much bandwidth? Urban75 did it...... Then again it was mainly so Slocombe could use his PDAs.

Will that work on my shiny new N95 8GB?

Yes it will. Any Nokia N series phone uses their S60 software.

horatio · 21st June 2008

I have just realized that the m version of the forum allows you to login now. so i'm posting from my phone (although i'm at home). before I was trying with ie on the desktop version of the forum. this is better. cheers vb.

You're using a blackberry and it isn't seeing the mobile theme?

The theme auto-detects that you're using a mobile device. And if you are seeing the heavy desktop version of the site then I need to change something.

Let me know.

mister k · 21st June 2008

works nicely on my sony ericsson k850i using the built in browser.

oh, it is working!

i was using the old m.londonfgss.com url and that seemed to take me to the heavy version whenever i clicked on a thread, but if i point at the normal url i get the light version.

woo!

VelocityBoy · 21st June 2008

Ah, the m URL... I'll change that.

GA2G · 24th June 2008

<p>Yes it works, but because I use my T-Mobile Ameo (HTC Athena X7500) for internet access, I'm accustomed to having the choice of the mobile version or full version of websites, a la BBC or Google home page. I don't see a choice box to tick. Previously when I came on here from my mobile, it was exactly the same as from my laptop. Possible to have mobiles route directly to the reduced pages, but have the choice of full web pages? Still, excellent work VB.</p>

GA2G · 25th June 2008

Hi VB, I don't know if this will be helpful at all, but just in case I didn't descibe what I was referrring well enough, I'm adding 2 web links that show what I meant.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/mobile/index.shtml (the Preferences link is at the bottom of the page)
http://www.bbc.co.uk/mobile/prefs/index.shtml (here the Desktop version can be selected)
If its alot of trouble, then please ignore me; I'm sure there aren't more than a few people that have mobile phone devices that possess a 5 inch screen.

Gustav · 1st August 2008

have been having a go at browsing LFGSS via N95 and experiencing problems. Can browse the menus but when I enter a thread its coming up "Page not found." Any suggestions as to why that might be thanks?

teenslain · 1st August 2008

Sounds weird, my N95 works great... You using the Nokia browser?

I get this, and I'm on a Sidekick Slide. Before the newer mobile version was up I could read threads no problem, not anymore though :(

Gustav · 1st August 2008

am using the standard browser on the N95...might be a network issue as I'm on T-Mobile and presumably Sidekick is as well

h2o · 2nd August 2008

Which url are you guys using?

johan · 2nd August 2008

I would like the option to turn mobile browsing off when you surf with your phone. Posting images from your phone doesn't work in the mobile version (or I haven't figured it out yet).

download Opera for mobile - it's a fantastic browser that actually have those 'zoom in' feature like the iPhone.

I could probably do that.

I think by default having it do what it's currently doing is good. No-one who accesses the site on a mobile wants to find themselves downloading several megabytes of images... so the default is the right thing to do.

However for those that know that they have both the bandwidth and a mobile browser that can manage the full version of the site should be able to override the default.

I'll look into it later today.

That'd be cool VB, I'm not that fond of the moby version...

robin · 3rd August 2008

looks and feels the same with iphone

eeehhhh · 3rd August 2008

I'd like that as well. I find the mobile version doesn't work well on an iPhone (constantly swiping sideways to read paragraphs that don't wrap) and loads of links are too close together.

Or, perhaps the normal site minus avatars, and images are linked rather than instantly shown?

h2o · 3rd August 2008

Images *are* linked already!

At least, they show up as such on my blackberry.

eeehhhh · 3rd August 2008

yeah i meant with the normal site appearance

Sharkstar · 19th August 2008

Really. a test

johan · 27th August 2008

Has this been done? If so, could someone point me in the direction of how to turn off the mobile version for my iphone. :)

VelocityBoy · 27th August 2008

I haven't done it... give me a moment.
