WURFL bug for Nexus7

´Hello,
I am using WURFL in Typo3 CMS for retrieving device screen's resolution through each http request.
I have tried it for several devices and got correct resolution. But accidentally I tried it on nexus7 Tablet and
got wrong resolution as 240px * 320px. Then once more, I tried it just with adding user agent of Nexus7 to my desktop browser
(using user agent switcher which is a firefox plugin), but came to the same result, although the real resolution is 800 * 1280.

I will appreciate if you could update me whether it is a bug in WURFL database or might be something else.

Regards,
Rozita

Rozita,

Are you able to provide me with the version of the API that you are using, the date on the wurfl.xml, and the User Agent of the device that is incorrectly being reported?

Thank you,

Elliot

Yes, sure.
The API version is: 22
The Android version of my Nexus7 is: 5.1.1
But the user agent which I used to test it through 'user agent switcher' is: Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android 4.4.4; Nexus 7 Build/KTU84P) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/42.0.2311.111 Safari/537.36
The update time for wurfl file might be a bit complecated.
Because I use wurfl as an extension in Typo3 CMS http://typo3.org/extensions/repository/ ... exts_wurfl,
and it will be updated whenever I click the update button at the backend. Last update was for August, 2015.

Thank you.

Rozita,

I see that the Typo3 CMS extension is providing a copy of 1.4.4.0 of the WURFL API, which was released in early 2013. The most recent version of the WURFL API (1.6.2.0) and wurfl.xml will properly detect the screen dimensions of this device, with official releases are available for download at http://scientiamobile.com/downloads.

Thank you,

Elliot
