Making Forum Replies with SmartPhone
#1
Thread Starter

My Feedback: (2)
I have a Verizon Droid Eris and a Droid Thunderbolt. These are both SmartPhones. My forum preferences call for me to receive an email when someone replies to a thread I am subscribed to. This works fine with my PC, over the years.
The problem is as follows.
When I receive an email (I use Gmail) on my phone, indicating that a Reply has been posted to a Thread I subscribe to, I click on the Link, I am automatically Logged in to RCU, the Page comes up with the latest posts, I click on Reply. A Text Box pops up, on my phone, I touch it to bring up the Keyboard, and I begin typing in a Reply. Within a minute or so, the web browser closes and I have to click on the link and go through the process again.
Has anyone else had this problem with RCU? It is random, but happens every time I reply to a thread with my phone.

Not the identical problem but close. When I get an email with a link to a forum which has more than one page, I can only read the current page that the link took me to. If the topic has say two pages the link always takes me to page 2. If I decide I want to read page 1 I choose the page number and it takes me there. But then the same thing happens - RCU kicks me out completely and I have to use the email to get back to the topic. I'm also on a Droid. This happens constantly by the way. I think Google and RCU don't play well with each other. The only work around I have found is going via the browser then it doesn't kick me out. So the probably seems related to the emails RCU sends out.
