I had similar lack of success when tweaking the override in ua- overrides-mobile.js
Then I removed the override and starting tweaking the default UA string just to see if it had any effect in UserAgent02.qml. This string caused better formatting of mail.google.com and looked similar to Android. I tested using the browser and opening mail.google.com - did not try the webapp as I don't know if that has it's own override. readonly property string _template: "Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Ubuntu %1%2%3) AppleWebKit/%4 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/%5 %6Safari/%7%8" Maybe the override mechanism is not working correctly? Only issue I observed with this UA String is that double tapping spacebar to insert period and autocaps no longer work when composing/replying to message. ** No longer affects: webbrowser-app (Ubuntu RTM) ** Changed in: webbrowser-app (Ubuntu) Importance: Medium => High ** Changed in: webbrowser-app (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Olivier Tilloy (osomon) ** No longer affects: webbrowser-app ** Also affects: canonical-devices-system-image Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: canonical-devices-system-image Assignee: (unassigned) => Bill Filler (bfiller) ** Changed in: canonical-devices-system-image Milestone: None => 12 ** Changed in: canonical-devices-system-image Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: canonical-devices-system-image Status: New => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to webbrowser-app in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1375889 Title: reply to message in gmail shows garbled reply view Status in Canonical System Image: Confirmed Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: try to reply to a message in gmail webapp I frequently see these issues: 1) the message you are replying too is inlined, but in an ugly fashion. It has >> characters but they don't always line up and the message looks garbled, especially if the message had an image in it, you see binary data 2)quite often, but not always, the reply view is not scrolled to the top so you don't see where your cursor is. Once you start typing then the view is scrollled. We should behave like Chrome for Android. For issue 1) they show a the message inlined next to a vertical divider which makes it look quite clean. For issue 2) this never occurs on Android.
