Samsung Galaxy S6 incorrectly identified

Postby JonoM » Tue Aug 25, 2015 6:01 am

Hi guys

I'm having some trouble detecting a Samsung Galaxy S6.

Device name: Samsung Galaxy S6
OS: Android Version 5.1.1
Model umber: SM-G920F
Build Number: LMY47X.G920FXXU2BOG8
Baseband Version: G920FXXU2BOGE
Kernel Version: 3.10.61-5012324

We used Chrome Browser and www.whatsmyuseragent.com to generate the devices user agent.
Mozilla/5.0 (Linux;Android 5.1.1; SM-G9oF Build/LMY47X) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, Like Gecko) Chrome/ 44.0.2403.133 Mobile Safari/ 537.36

When running this through both our DB copy or directly on your site it returns a "Generic Android 2.0" device.

Please could you look into this?

Thanks

Jono

Jono,

The User Agent that you have posted appears to be malformed as the `SM-G9oF` portion should be `SM-G920F` and I am noticing serveral added and removed spaces that you would typically find in the UA of Galaxy S6 device. I have posted a well formed User Agent below to compare:

Code: Select all

Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android 5.1.1; SM-G920F Build/LMY47X) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/44.0.2403.104 Mobile Safari/537.36
If you have access to the physical device, are you able to submit the full headers to https://db.scientiamobile.com/h?

Thank you,

Elliot

Hi Elliot

We noticed that as well.

It seems this may be a case of good news & bad news.

I have now gone and tried a different site to return the user agent and it returns correctly (https://www.whatismyip.com/user-agent-info/) so the good news is it's not your problem ;)

The bad news is it doesn't explain the incorrect behavior we're seeing so back to the drawing board for me.

Apologies about the false alarm.

Thank you

Regards

Jono
