Getting the Nook color to be recognized as a mobile device

[VolMan37421]

Hi again,

There are all kinds of websites that automatically recognize my smart phone and use the mobile site. They don't seem to do that for my Nook color. Is there any way to get those sites to open up with their mobile versions?

Thanks!

It has to do with how the browser is configured. It seems the default browser on the nook is set up to be recognised as a desktop browser. Some browsers, such as Opera, allow you to select whether you want it to act as a mobile or desktop browser, but I am not sure how to do this in the stock Android browser.

Ok, in your browser click on the options icon in the top right and then click other options>settings.

The first setting allows you to toggle the browser as a desktop or mobile browser.
