Wrong resolution width and height

[lacausa]

Hi,

I am using the Wurfl Cloud and I have wrong results when I get the resolution_width and resolution_height. For example, with a Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini Pro I get width = 240 and height = 320, but the real resolution is width = 320 and height = 480. And I have this problem with others smartphones..

Can you help me please?

We will take a look at the issue and try to determine the cause of the inaccurate data. In the meantime, can you please post any other similar issues you're having in this thread so we can keep track of the context.

Also, can you tell me which cloud client you are using (Java, .NET, PHP, Ruby, Python, etc)?

Thanks for your answer..

I am using PHP and I have problems with this smartphone too:
- Iphone 4: I get width = 320, height = 480 and the real resolution is width = 640 and height = 960

With regards to the iPhone 4, Apple has gone to great lengths to ensure people can't detect the different hardware versions, and as a result, we give the lowest common resolution for the iPhone (and the iPad).

With regards to the Xperia X10 Mini Pro, I see a few devices marketed with that name:

Some of these have a resolution of 240x320 and others have 320x480 - do you have the user agent of the specific device in question?

this is a known issue with the iOS. Apple has chosen to hide any information about the underlying device in the HTTP request. This is not a WURFL issue, it is an issue with any framework or even manual analysis of an HTTP request.

You should complain to Apple for this. We chose to add conservative values in the profile, in order to serve all devices. Also consider that it's 640 physical pixels, but 320 virtual pixels (AKA CSS pixels).

As an aside, I heard that Apple is introducing image sets in iOS6. This will allow you to provide multiple versions of the same picture and the browser will pick the right one:

image-set()

for ex:

image-set(url('url1') 1x, url('url2') 2x)

Sony Ericsson K530 has the resolution of 176 x 220 pixels. But when retrieve through wurfl api(wurfl-2.3.2.zip) , it shows as 240 x 320.
The change of resolution badly affect our device targetting application. Please solve as soon as possible.

Thank you for letting us know about the issue. It has been fixed and should be in this weekend's WURFL snapshot.

Cheers!
