How do I read all X Headers in asp.net - asp.net

Question

I want to be able to identify a mobile device using some form of ID.
I read this answer: Get unique, static id from a device via web request about reading x headers in asp.net but when I list all the headers using the following code I don't get any useful x headers
For Each var As String In Request.ServerVariables
Response.Write("<b>" & var & "</b>: " & Request(var) & "<br>")
Next
On my andoid device the only X header I get is HTTP_X_WAP_PROFILE

Answer 1

If you want to read HTTP headers you are going about it the wrong way. ServerVariables only holds some information from the headers.
You should be looking at the Request.Headers property. The following code will list all headers from the HTTP Request. Presumable the "x" headers you refer to will be there..
For Each headerName As String In Request.Headers.AllKeys
Response.Write("<b>" & headerName & "</b>: " & Request.Headers(headerName) & "<br>")
Next

Answer 2

To read the header values you can use the code below.
I thin by using user-agent from which you can get an idea about the browser.
C#
var headers = Request.Headers.ToString();
// If you want it formated in some other way.
var headers = String.Empty;
foreach (var key in Request.Headers.AllKeys)
headers += key + "=" + Request.Headers[key] + Environment.NewLine;
VB.NET:
Dim headers = Request.Headers.ToString()
' If you want it formated in some other way.'
Dim headers As String = String.Empty
For Each key In Request.Headers.AllKeys
headers &= key & "=" & Request.Headers(key) & Environment.NewLine

From Detecting mobile device user agents in ASP.NET (Android):
//for Mobile device
protected override void OnInit(EventArgs e)
{
string userAgent = Request.UserAgent;
if (userAgent.Contains("BlackBerry")
|| (userAgent.Contains("iPhone") || (userAgent.Contains("Android"))))
{
//add css ref to header from code behind
HtmlLink css = new HtmlLink();
css.Href = ResolveClientUrl("~/mobile.css");
css.Attributes["rel"] = "stylesheet";
css.Attributes["type"] = "text/css";
css.Attributes["media"] = "all";
Page.Header.Controls.Add(css);
}
}
