I believe if SMF detects a mobile user-agent through the browser, it will serve up a simplified, mobile version of the forum.  We're on an oldish rev., so it doesn't seem to account for quality mobile browsers.

What kind of phone are you packing?

I can check if your phone is getting the mobile version and change it so that you get the full version of the site.

I just made a change to the "wireless" template.  Next time you're viewing the site on a phone, let me know if it's better. (or if I broke anything  Grin)

Hmm, I'm having trouble reproducing this.

A few questions:

1) Are you using the default BB 8130 browser or Opera Mini?

2) When you say images don't render, do you mean ANY images or just images that have been attached or included within a thread?  Same for links, do you mean links within a post or any links?

This page suggests the browser will ignore large images, but display small images:
http://blackberry8130.wor.../08/web-browser-features/

3) On your phone, does the site look like the normal site or the WAP site?
The WAP site looks like this:
http://www.golfhos.com/in...ex.php?topic=8527&wap

4) If you're using the default browser, does it make a difference if you try a different "Content Mode" setting (WML, HTML).

Default

2) When you say images don't render, do you mean ANY images or just images that have been attached or included within a thread?  Same for links, do you mean links within a post or any links?

This page suggests the browser will ignore large images, but display small images:
http://blackberry8130.wor.../08/web-browser-features/

3) On your phone, does the site look like the normal site or the WAP site?
The WAP site looks like this:
http://www.golfhos.com/in...ex.php?topic=8527&wap

URLs don't appear as anchor elements, and they're mangled to boot so I can't even copy and paste into the browser "address bar".

No images from the site render--post-embedded or otherwise. Of course, images that are normally part of the interface such as smiley buttons don't look like they're supposed to render since the site renders like that WAP link. However, there is a difference. I still get some navigation links (that work) like:

Code:
[0] Message Index
[*] Previous Page
Reply

4) If you're using the default browser, does it make a difference if you try a different "Content Mode" setting (WML, HTML).

I have the content mode set to WML and HTML and also have images set to render for both. I also tried changing the emulation modes (e.g. BlackBerry, Openwave WAP, Openwave Gateway, MS IE, Pocket IE, and Netscape), and it makes no difference.

There's something I want to try, but I won't be able to push it out until tonight.
