Server side sniffing in place. If you add "android" to the Firefox OS ua string, it gets the mobile site. We need to ask them to recognize FxOS as a mobile device and redirect it to the appropriate place.

And it regressed :( Both Firefox on Android and Firefox OS smartphones get a desktop-like site now. Chrome on Android is still sent to m.indiatimes.com.
