Hi Raffi and everyone, Firstly, Twitter is doing better than some other oAuth pages I could mention..!
At Xumii we’re using Twitter mobile oAuth on a wide range of phones, from low-end feature phones to high-end smartphones. A recent QA cycle revealed 7 out of 30 Most Popular devices not coping with Twitter mobile oAuth: Samsung C3110, Nokia 3120, SE G502, SE C905, LG KU990, Nokia N96, SE W705. But… rather than tracking individual defects on specific handsets, how about a standards-based approach, using something like the w3 MobileOK validator? http://validator.w3.org/mobile Currently, Twitter mobile oAuth scores 68% when the user is already logged in to Twitter, and 79% when the user isn't yet logged in. @raffi i’ll email over the MobileOK reports which explain more; it’s not just the Javascript, there are easily-fixed problems in the XHTML, the CSS, the images, the DOCTYPE, and the HTTP headers. Aiming for 100% on MobileOK should solve a big chunk of current issues on those lower-end feature phones. What do you think?
