Does NodeBB work on Android smartphones?

Just tried this on a stupendously old htc hero running villain rom v13, it's slow, and I had to cancel 8 SSL warnings, the icons don't display, but the site appears functional. Browser version is WebKit 3.1 if that helps.

My god how did we live with phones this slow back then..

Working fine on Android 2.3 Gingerbread. Just that not all icons on tiles are displayed properly.

Is that Android 2.3 Gingerbread or Android 4.3 Jelly Bean?

Android 2.3 Gingerbread.

I had an old shitbox phone running 2.3 gingerbread back when we first started building NodeBB, and it worked fine. Did have some issues with sockets, although we've addressed that recently. That said, if anybody is having problems with a specific OS/device please open up an issue on GitHub, and if you're willing to help us debug I'm sure we can try and figure it out for you

Tested before on my Samsuck Space Monster 55 or whatever it's called and it worked great for me.

@splat I was having a few problems with mobile but was all fixed when I deleted cookies on my mobile browser.

I'm having some issues posting but that might be a cache issue again.
Cleared cache and still not able to post. This could be a theme issue too.

I didn't know what my phone is/specs but I just checked for sake of adding info here:

Galaxy Nexus
Android ver: 4.2.2

Hey I got it for 99c during a BestBuy promotion. Couldn't pass that up

I too have a Galaxy Nexus, but I am on Android 4.3.

@zakcharyzelish the likelihood of anyone responding here is going to be almost zero. This post is 9 years old and the NodeBB and technology world has completely changed.
