Social media and Samsung mobile device!

This is a very peculiar problem, well it's not much of a problem just a query really, I've had a virus over the last few days so can't really get to the bottom of it until I'm a bit better. My question is with regards to the RLM social media element, when you use that everything works as it should, until it's viewed in a Samsung mobile device, not tablet though. It's very curious the code I'm using is correct, everything is correct, I'm just using RLM social media and then adding where people can find me, as you do. It works on everything but Samsung Mobile in which it gives a double of the social media eg two Google + signs?? what's that about :cool: there is no double code. I can't give a screen grab because the mobile is in fact an MP3 but is like a mobile but without the phone and the screen capture is pants it just shuts it off, so anyone who can come up with why and if anyone else has a Samsung mobile device are you experiencing the same problems?? The solver of the mystery gets a gold star and goes top of the class :P:P

I've seen this with facebook on other html pages where if I liked it my profile pic shows twice on that page in the face pile.
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

This is a site I built for my work.(RSD)

Oh really how interesting. I wonder why it is peculiar because all the code is correct :/

Just had a chance to check it out on a Samsung Galaxy S3. Looks normal – no duplicates.
Lots of nice art... you should feature something in your header ;)

Sorry to be so ignorant Paint, but is Galaxy S3 a tablet or mobile? Yeah I know I should add a bit more on the heading, but this site is always going to be a personal one and a work in progress. Also it was done in Mobile first so it's a learner and to be honest it might be the way I go in future, I thought it would be total different way to look at things but I found it quite easy going that way. I know here in the UK in the .NET mag and Web Designer they all for that way round, I think there's no rights or wrongs just what you feel comfortable with. :P My next project is doing something that you did for that site about the aged, doing a one page site, I've tried before and made a hash of it :/

Just tested your site on a Samsung Galaxy Ace using the phones's internet browser and get the duplicate g+, but accessing the site using Opera mini on the same phone do not get the duplicate g+,( although the 4 icons are displayed as Chinese or Japanese characters not the social media logos, this may be due to the settings in Opera Mini).

Thanks Keith. That is weird. On my wife's tablet Samsung 7inch something or other with the default internet browser works fine, put it into the same browser on mobile device and I'm seeing double :o Ah I've seen something on proper browser, IE there is an issue and on Chrome there isn't. I can now give a screenshot, see what the CC chaps have to say.
