Cipherlab RS30 mobile scanner supports only Android 4.4.2 and I havent found upgrade. Tried to use Bootstrap 5 and Font Awesome icons in old Chrome browser (google play does not work in Android 4) using
<link rel="stylesheet" href="lib/twitter-bootstrap/css/bootstrap.css" />
@if (curUser.IsAndroid4())
{
<!-- this does not fix object value is not a function in Font Awesome all.js
<script src="js/proxy.min.js"></script> -->
}
else
{ // Those throw errors in Android 4
<script src="lib/twitter-bootstrap/js/bootstrap.bundle.js"></script>
<script src="~/lib/font-awesome/js/all.js" asp-append-version="true"></script>
}
Most of application is in monochrome:
Also bootstrap 5 dropdowns does not open on click.
In newer Android application appears in color:
bootstrap.css file contains styles:
.text-success {
--bs-text-opacity: 1;
color: rgba(var(--bs-success-rgb), var(--bs-text-opacity)) !important;
}
.text-info {
--bs-text-opacity: 1;
color: rgba(var(--bs-info-rgb), var(--bs-text-opacity)) !important;
}
Maybe css variables are not supported in Android 4.
How to use applicaton also in Android 4?
Possible solutions:
Use modernizer (which?)
Use style preprocessor to replace css variables with values
Use css file from older bootstrap
Override styles like
@if (curUser.IsAndroid4()) { <style> .text-success { color: green !important; } .text-danger { color: red !important; } </style> }
and replace dropdowns with html select elements.
