    I am going to just look for another menu.. the mobile dropdown menu that is bundled with Genesis (a WordPress theme framework) doesn't have the same issues with the Android devices.. Gonna see if I can isolate the menu code that is used there or just find a menu with similar behavior.. I'll share what I find with you (if you are interested) since both you and I seem to be on the same page with regards to the issues with Android devices..
    If you find something that more functional on Android devices, I am interested but coding is not my forte'. The menu collapse is why I put a link to the "renamed sitemap" calling it "Alternate Main Menu" in the footer as a stopgap measure but was hoping that the latest template update would have corrected the menu shortcomings.

    I can appreciate that Android device behavior can be problematic since template functions a bit differently in every browser.... Native Samsung, Chrome, FireFox and LastPass. Phone, 7", 8" & 10" The 7" is detected as a phone.

    Given the vast number of different Android devices, I can also see where it is difficult to impossible for developers to test every combination, unlike Apple devices which only have a handful of combinations.

    Rick and Diva,

    Please do me a favor, and take a look at this site that I just completed on your androids and see if the menu behaves better:

    Quick look at menu functionality using
    generic 7", menu functionality good.
    Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 8": Chrome, FireFox, LastPass & Samsung browsers functionality good. ie: no menu to collapse


    You didn't ask about this but noticed
    Formatting: Firefox: logo.jpg does not resize in portrait mode so sale.jpg overlaps logo.jpg
    Formatting: Chrome: logo.jpg does resize in portrait mode so no overlap of sale.jpg
    Formatting: Product pages: individual product widths overlap in portrait mode.

    Is the area below the slideshow part of the menu categories? Responsive formatting portrait vs landscape

    Can't test on all devices, but there are options out there that work well on both platforms.. So I will continue to look for one because I can take my client's site live with the current menu..

    Agreed!!! That's why I test on the physical devices.. Not to mention these emulators often show things shifted.. Like the site I'm using this template on, the hamburger icon shows as if it's overlaying the logo in the emulator, but it's in the right position on the actual device..
