Apparently the problem is on JS, because when I click the button it doesn't slide from off to on position. Can be fixed the problem or at least implemented (somewhere) a link that can refresh the page applying the "on choice"? Note: Cookie works because when I open https://it.wikivoyage.org I'm logged in. PS I use a BB mobile phone.
Can you paste your user agent please? You can find it out here: http://whatsmyuseragent.com/

I tried to reproduce this in the BlackBerry browser using the BlackBerry 10 Device Simulator within VMWare Fusion. The sliding buttons worked for me. UserAgent string was: Mozilla/5.0 (BB10; Touch) AppleWebKit/537.35+ (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/10.2.1.1925 Mobile Safari/537.35+
It looks like the BlackBerry OS that you're using is quite old (from 2010) and no long supported by BlackBerry. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to find an emulator for it.
I imagine it's some incompatibility with a particular jQuery function. Apparently BlackBerry Browser 6.0 is WebKit-based and is supposed to have pretty good JS support, so I would be reluctant to remove it from the supported list in resources/startup.js, however.
All that I can say is that I'm available to make further test if needed. Just let me know. Otherwise, if there's nothing to do, just eliminate "me" by the compatibility list :-)
I'll see if I can dig up an actual old BlackBerry to test on...
I managed to dig up an old BlackBerry with the exact same version browser (6.0.0.600) and the sliding buttons on Special:MobileOptions work fine for me. Did you click the "Save" button after using the sliding buttons? The Save button is at the bottom of the screen, so if you have a small screen you might not have seen it.
Ryan, maybe there's a misunderstanding. My problem it's not related to the "save" button (that I see and I can press), my problem is related to the "sliding button" that doesn't work; when I press them, nothing happens. Just to double check, could you you show here the result of http://whatsmyuseragent.com on the mobile that you have used? Please open this ticket again. I think is important to understand where is the issue, if not in the core software.

As per that comment, Ryan cannot reproduce. There's not much to fix if developers cannot reproduce the problem. Hence the WORKSFORME.
