Does NodeBB work on Android smartphones?

[meetdilip]

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.

I had a go at setting up nodebb and it seems to have installed alright and the desktop version seems to work fine. However on my Motorola XT316 Android phone whenever I try to post anything it cause the web browser to freeze. When I try to log in it causes the web browser to do a download which I found quite odd, but the download would always fail. Does anyone know if Android version 2.3.4 is a supported platform for NodeBB?

@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.
