acnpt Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 I'm having a bit of trouble finding the option to go back to the Forums' desktop version from the mobile version. Any ideas? Glassed Silver 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FMH Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 In the URL box type www.neowin.net/full and voila, you are back on desktop version! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FMH Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 And in mobile version, at the bottom, you can see this option too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acnpt Posted November 25, 2011 Author Share Posted November 25, 2011 Thanks for the quick reply. I'm still getting the mobile theme in the forums (which is great btw), its just nice to have the choice. Using Safari on iPad. All I'm getting at the bottom is English(USA) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acnpt Posted November 25, 2011 Author Share Posted November 25, 2011 Just loaded it up on WP7 Emulator. I'm missing the Full Version button on my iPad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FMH Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 Okay, I get this problem sometimes too (on iPod). Close all your Neowin tabs on Safari. Go to Home. Then by double-clicking on the Home button, close Safari in multi-tasking bar. That worked for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damian Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 How do I get the full forum on the iPhone? Tapping 'Full Version' doesn't work and clearing cookies and other data doesn't work either. Only the full front page works when going to neowin.net/full. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damian Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 I'm having the same problem on two iPhones, one iPod touch and one Blackberry. Unless i'm doing something wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timan Veteran Posted June 11, 2012 Veteran Share Posted June 11, 2012 Delete cookies for neowin then, see if that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damian Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Delete cookies for neowin then, see if that helps. Already tried that. See post #9. Switching between full and mobile works fine on desktop and tablet. It only seems to be a problem on phones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FiB3R Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Sort of on topic... How do you get back to the front page after going to the forums? There is a link to the forums in the drop down box, while on the mobile front page, but no such link to get back. Nor is there a link to NeoGamr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vice Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 I'm reviving this because I have this problem too and I can't fix it no matter what I do. I'm using an iPhone 4S and if I use Safari or Chrome I cannot get to the desktop version of Neowin it just takes me back to mobile. I've cleared cookies, cache everything I can think of.. all I can think is this is a Neowin side problem? Used to work fine, now.. not so much. I know sites like to have mobile versions (for some reason) but Neowins mobile version sucks. No notifications or anything just basic forum reading and replying, please fix this.

Brandon H Supervisor Posted July 22, 2012 Supervisor Share Posted July 22, 2012 i can confirm this, it gets stuck on mobile skin BECAUSE "go to desktop" link takes you to front news page (which gets turned back to the desktop version) but then the forum is still stuck on the mobile skin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glassed Silver Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 I'm still having this problem for as long as I can remember since I got my iPhone 4. Mobile version is okay-ish, but lacks a few features I use frequently, so it's a pain in the behind. Glassed Silver:ios Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neo1911 Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 I hate going to Neowin on my iPhone. Forum is still stuck forever in the crippled mobile version. This is just lazy from developer's side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
