Hi,

We're having an issue with recognising browser from the following user agent:

Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; U; Android 6.0.1; en-US; SM-N910F Build/MMB29M) AppleWebKit/534.30 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 UCBrowser/11.0.8.855 U3/0.8.0 Mobile Safari/534.30

It's recognised as Generic Android 1.5. We expect it to be UCBrowser.

Please advise.

Thank you.

Hi,

Thank you for reaching out to us. Are you able to let me know the date of your wurfl.xml, your API version, and the capabilities you are using? I tested the user agent string string using the latest wurfl.xml update with the Java OnSite API (v1.8.1.0) and received the following results for the advertised_browser and mobile_browser capabilities:

Is Tablet: UC Browser
Can Assign Phone Number: UCWeb

Hi Codewise Team,

The provided user agent string will be conclusively matched to a device_id in the next API release, set to release this week. To receive a notification of the release of API v.1.8.2.0, please subscribe to our newsletter at the following link:

Let me know if there is anything I can assist you with and I'll be glad to help!

Thanks,

Hi Aaron,

I re-checked and indeed UCWeb is returned in "mobile_browser" for the provided user agent. There was a mistake on my side.

Regarding "device_os_version"; value of 1.5 is returned for the user agent from the original post. However the UA indicates version 6.0.1. Is the upgrade to wurfl 1.8.2.0 and latest xml going to fix it?

Thank you.

Hi Codewise Team,

In this case, I would recommend using the advertised_device_os_version virtual capability as it will pull the value directly from the user agent string as opposed to device_os_version which will return a hard coded value.

Regards,

Aaron

Ok. Thank you.
