I tried some browsers
Here is feedback:

Maxathon browser : it's fast and nice but desktop version same as chrome, I have to do zoom to read text.

UC Browser : it's good but sucks, i was only able to see image and colorless version ie: https://bitcointalk.org/?;wap

Next Browser: Same as maxathon. You can't open any link correctly without doing zoom.

One Browser : It forced me to see wap2 version of forum. https://bitcointalk.org/?;wap2


edit: Finally found a browser that supports mobile stylesheet.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.tint

Just go to Settings > Browser settings > Disable wide viewport (If you want to see mobile stylesheet.)

Yeah, why do all Android browsers suck so much? Firefox on Android is even worse than Chrome, but Chrome also annoys me a lot (especially how it constantly tries to redirect youtube.com to the YouTube app, with apparently no way to turn this off).

Code:

Try this one, I have seen it working here. http://responsif.terminus13.com/ but max-width in this theme was 480.
Ps: There's a good article about mobile themes.

I'll try something like that when I have a chance. Thanks.

For me using FF is the best solution!

Tried Chrome and androids "Internet". Chrome totaly sucks and "Internet" displays different size of topic replies.

I wonder if there's a better way to get them to use the stylesheet than what the forum does now:

I've seen the same font thing on Reddit. I guess it's a browser bug.

I notice that Chrome doesn't use the forum's small-screen stylesheet, which is stupid.

Well even my cell's stock browser (Android 4.2.2) doesn't use that stylesheet.
I have tried almost all browsers and so far chrome is still best as i can click on page numbers easily.

Touchdown
I've tried a few and all but Opera mini (which has its own issues) stuggle with this forum. Specifically, whenever I view a thread, random posts will appear in super small text. Why is that?

I haven't managed to find any settings that fix this.

(I'm using a Galaxy Note 3, btw.)
