brimster Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 For the past several weeks (months?) I've been unable to access the Computer Audiophile website on my Samsung Android phone (Note 3) or tablet (NotePro). If I go there from my browser (Chrome) I just get a blank screen. The app works fine. Anyone else having this problem? Any fix? I haven't see this with any other site. Thanks in advance for your help. Link to comment
Daren F Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 I get the same thing with my Samsung Tab2 and my Note 4. Link to comment
shadowlight Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 same issue with both firefox and chrome but works fine if i use the native samsung browser. Link to comment
ecwl Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 It's been like that off my iPhone too for a few weeks. It seems the mobile website is down or something and I always get a blank screen. In hindsight, should have said something to the CA boss before he flies out to CES. Oops... Link to comment
brimster Posted January 5, 2015 Author Share Posted January 5, 2015 I actually don't even want to the "mobile friendly" verison of the site. One of the reason I invested in a large screen phone (Samsung Note 3) before Apple made it cool was so I could access "full versions" of websites on the go vs. the limited mobile versions. That said, I get absolutely nothing on Android on any platform - phone or tablet! Maybe CA wasn't aware of it before. But they are now! Link to comment
esldude Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Actually there was a thread about this in the last month. Someone told a fix. I had the same issue with a Galaxy 3, and still do. The fix suggested didn't work. Wasn't Chris' fix it was someone else. I just got the CA app from the Play store. Actually is better anyway. Should have gotten it sooner. It also seems to work very well while requiring less bandwidth than a browser. So that is good when your signal is marginal. A workaround that did work was to have your browser go to computeraudiophile.com/forum Doesn't get you the main page, but will get you the forums. Thanks to Eloise for this suggestion (audio_elf_) And always keep in mind: Cognitive biases, like seeing optical illusions are a sign of a normally functioning brain. We all have them, it’s nothing to be ashamed about, but it is something that affects our objective evaluation of reality. Link to comment
tranz Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 On an iphone, clicking on the URL to an article or other thread from within the CA app also provides a blank screen. Link to comment

AudioDoctor Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 on my android phone I can request desktop site, and it loads just fine. No electron left behind. Link to comment
brimster Posted January 6, 2015 Author Share Posted January 6, 2015 on my android phone I can request desktop site, and it loads just fine. Ahhh! Very good! Just tried that and you're right!!! Didn't know you could request desktop site from options (even with a blank screen). Well, we now have a short-term fix until the good people at CA can fit it for good! Thanks AudioMD! Link to comment
