Anyone have any suggestions if the captcha isn't displaying on an Android?

I have a droid. Always shows up for me. What kind of browser are you using?

It's not me, it's someone applying to the forum. I was hoping it was just a glitch in the registration, so I walked that through by hand, but he's still having problems. I've passed it on to support, but support can take a while. I was hoping someone had a trick or some specific info on Androids. They said they were using the Google browser (is that Chrome on Androids too, or is there a separate one for phones?)

I've never had a problem with the captchas using my Android phone. I use the Dolphin browser.

I tried disabling Java on my browser, but that didn't seem to affect it. Well, if anyone has any ideas...

I checked on both the native browser and chrome. It showed up fine on each. I've got an old Samsung SGII running Ics

Empty the cache and delete history. That might help. If not then suggest trying another browser. Dolphin is the best Android browser Iv'e found so far. Google Chrome is pretty rubbish on Android. The default browser on Android is ok (don't know the name of it though). That's built in to every Android phone so will be in the apps somewhere. If none of those work then I'm stumped.

I use whatever came with the phone. No complaints.

Mine's a Samsung Galaxy S. I have the stock browser and Dolphin. Shows up on both of them. And mine's been screwy for over a year. AT&T decided to tell me to upgrade my firmware to Gingerbread 2.3.5....only for me to start having it lock up constantly, run slowly, not sync to my PC, and fail to run all my apps properly. Turns out that version wasn't compatible with my phone and there was no way to change it back without deleting everything I have stored on it. *fume*

Buzadero, I'd be happy with a little Renaissance- captchas that can be turned off after a certain number of posts and such, but Google ranking penalizes sites that split their traffic.

Something tells me these aren't the droids you are looking for...

I really have a lot of info for beginners concerning feedback, tongueblock rumble(that's a non-musical sound made by not having the right microphone), and using an effects pedal(rp355) etc...I have had success with a bugera v-5 (change 12ax7 to 12ay7 groove TUBE) shure 545sd and a big river harp..hold microphone right in front of speaker with no feedback or other noise...effects pedal another story when my typing finger rests...
