A list of unsupported devices

Postby webber84 » Mon Feb 26, 2018 10:48 pm

I recently get a trial version of the latest JAVA API and ran it against a small portion of our user-agent database. The size of database is 7739 and we found 593 not recogonized (the brand name is "Generic"). You can find these records at https://drive.google.com/file/d/1MYiA0M ... p=drivesdk

Would you please review this, and add support to them?

Hello,

Thanks for submitting these devices. As a note, the evaluation API has a limited database attached to it, so some of these user agents may be picked up in the full database.

I also wanted to point out that some of these user agents were probably detected as "Generic" for good reason. User agents like this:

Code: Select all

Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android 5.1; VIVO Build/LMY47I; wv) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 Chrome/43.0.2357.121 Mobile Safari/537.36
have no device model attached to it (Vivo is the brand). Other user agents like these:

Code: Select all

Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android 5.1.1; samsung Build/SM-J200H) AppleWebKit/535.19 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/18.0.1025.133 Mobile Safari/535.19
Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android 5.1; Hisense Build/HS-U602) AppleWebKit/535.19 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/18.0.1025.133 Mobile Safari/535.19
Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android 4.0.4; Sony Build/ST27i) AppleWebKit/535.19 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/18.0.1025.133 Mobile Safari/535.19
Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android 6.0; Vodafone Build/VFD 300) AppleWebKit/535.19 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/18.0.1025.133 Mobile Safari/535.19

have the model information after the "Build" tag, which is not normal (it usually comes before) and indicates that these are malformed user agents. Usually that is where you would find the firmware build tag.

I will have our data team look at this list and add any relevant user agents to our device queue. Thanks again for you help!

Best,
David
