Android devices being tagged as Desktop

[sudhirvallam]

Some user agents that have "Android" in them are being classified as "Desktop". This is a wrong classification in my opinion. WURFL tags these as "Generic Android Device" and that's a good approach in my opinion

Some example user agents where system tags them as Desktop

What client are you using? You have some options:

• You can patch the resources with patterns to catch generic android devices. Ex:
  https://github.com/TheWeatherChannel/dClass/blob/master/openddr/BuilderDataSourcePatch.xml#L88
• You need to make sure your client properly supports this kind of patch.
  -dClass will properly fallback to these patterns. dClass is a C library with Java support via JNI
  -Apache DeviceMap also supports this. DeviceMap is an Apache port of OpenDDR. There is a Java and C# client:
