[SOLVED]Access the forum from android device

Hi guys,

For some reason, every time I try to access the forum from my tablet in Chrome or Firefox I get redirected to some website (ww1.br-update.com). Any ideas?

Hi parkho,

I have this trouble too, it’s most annoying trying to access on an android device. This was brought up some months ago now, in the thread below:

However, the problem still remains unfortunately. Have you considered switching to ‘Apple’ devices?

Oh I see. Actually I’m not a fan of apple devises since they’re not my type therefore I don’t have them at all and nor my wife does as he thinks the same as me. Ha! Ha!

Anyways, I think I continue replying to posts using my mighty laptop.

Have you tried clearing the browser cached data? First of all I would suggest visiting the forum via opening a “private window”. Also, have you tried accessing the forum through another url? Maybe forum.phpvms.net instead of phpvms.net or even ?

I have tried everything and have used 4 different browsers but they’re all the same. It must be something in HOST settings.

This has been happening for months. You need to request desktop site then go to the forum.

By desktop site you mean windows. Right?

No, he means you have to configure your Android´s browser to show pages in “Desktop Mode”. I tried like that in my father´s Android and it worked!

Would you tell me how it’s done?

I found it. The solution is Firefox and its add-on Phony. Just install Phony and open it and choose desktop view and you’re done

In chrome i go to the 3 dots in the left hand corner (it’s the options tab i think) then select “Request desktop site” wait for it to reload then select forum.

Yours good as well.

Thanks guys.
