Strike X Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 When I browse this site using Opera Mini browser on my mobile phone.. I am getting full version of skin and too many graphic. I thought IP3 have special skin for mobile phone? (to reduce graphics, etc). www.bbc.co.uk/mobile work great for mobile and bandwidth saving.

bfarber Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 1) Each user agent has to be mapped - we've only done blackberry and iphone so far 2) The lofi skin isn't done yet, so I wouldn't really try to test it yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Connor T Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 The Instinct doesn't even work on 2.3.6 on my phone at least. Maybe I have some modding preventing it from working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lofi is kinda boring, its not attractive. Perhaps where you are from the majority of users have those phones, but I can't think of a single person I know that does. :) This is why the user-agent mapping is configurable. ;) And the lofi is meant to be boring. :blink: It's meant to be ... well ... lofi - less (or no) images, no javascript, basic colors, so that on a mobile device it loads faster and can display data on a smaller screen. It is a skin, however, so feel free to tweak it on your site once it's released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, in most of Europe, you almost only see people using Nokia and Sony Ericson cellphones, so it's important that this is supported out of the box :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 I think the only reason iPhone and Blackberry are the only ones on the list is because almost everyone at IPS has one of the other :P I'm sure agents like opera mini and IE mobile will be added to the user agent lists for the lofi skin once it's been finished and we can test it works on those... if not you can always add them yourself, it's done through the ACP ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My brother has a Helios last I knew. Anyways, we will most likely be configuring the lofi-mapping to capture more mobile user agents than we have presently. ;) It's only basically configured for testing, and as I said, the lofi skin is largely broken atm.

Luke Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Just wanted to point out that there is a difference between "Opera Mini" and "Opera Mobile". For testing with Opera Mini, you can use this: http://www.opera.com/mini/demo/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Pi Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Back on topic, is there any way you could implement (at least temporary) a way to go back to the real skin when on Lo-Fi? Kind of annoying to have to use an unfinished skin on iPhones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
