Forums - General - Droid help please

I just bought an LG optimus and I can see everything on this site even my dancing sig lol! I can bring up a quote and reply box but I can't type anything in, are there some settings i'm missing? My work computer only allows me to make threads (since the site update) so I thought once I got this phone I would be able to make commets. Sigh I knew I should have gotten the EVO...any help would be appreciated!

Does it have a keyboard?  With my Droid 2, I touch the reply box and type with my keyboard (doing it right now, even).  The onscreen keyboard doesn't pop up on this site for some reason.

I'll tinker with my phone and see if there's a way to post with a Droid without resorting to a slide out keyboard.



Oh, and I meant to work "These are not rhe Droids you're looking for" into my post, somehow.  Pretend that I did that.






Or check out my new webcomic: http://selfcentent.com/

^^Fucking awesome.

And as I posted in my PM to the OP, even my PS3 and Wii can't post on this site since the new format came out.  It's gotta be the way this site is coded or something.

lol at the pic

 

I don't have an issue using the reply boxes on my Fascinate.

If you want you can force your android browser to be viewed as a normal desktop browser to see if that helps.

1. In your browser URL, type “about:debug” and press enter. (No quotations)
2. Hit “menu” and then select “Settings.”
3. Scroll all the way to the bottom of the settings and tap on “UAString.”
4. Select “Desktop.”

 

EDIT: Nevermind. I know I've posted stuff before from my phone, but now it is not working. If I long press on the boxes it sees them as a image or link, i.e. not recognized as a normal form fill in box. Guess, ioi does not test for mobile use. Seems like a bad choice sense a lot of the user base of this site would be more techy and have smartphones.

it's frustrating when you can only do things from certain devices.
