Hi,
I am using Tera-WURFL. It is very helpful.

But when I use mobile Nokia 2700c with opera browser, system check and show it's infomation is Opera Mini 4.
How to check mobile is Nokia 2700c??

Thanks!!!!

I have good news and bad news. The bad news is that Opera Mini will replace the UA string with its own. The good news is that you can often find the original UA string in a different header (x-operamini-phone-ua, if my memory serves me well).

This means that you can still use the WURFL API to detect the device on the other UA string.

Our goal is to encapsulate this feature in the regular API and hide details under the hood with the next major API release. Of course, the question is how to do it and still perform well. Backward compatibility with the current XML schema is also a requirement.

Thanks

For clarification, the Database API (formerly Tera-WURFL) will detect and use the appropriate user agent field (X-OperaMini-Phone-Ua in this case) if you don't explicitly pass the user agent.

For example, if your code looks like this, the API will use the correct header: If you pass the user agent explicitly, the API will not have access to the other HTTP headers, so it will be detected as a generic Opera Mini device:

Thank you very much! Hi

Unfortunately in most cases the X-OperaMini-Phone is empty. That's been my experience anyhow.

This makes it very difficult to get meaningful data from WURFL.

Please note that Opera has now changed the header from X-OperaMini-Phone-UA to Device-Stock-UA. Older versions of the browser will still use the old header and all newer versions will use the new header.
