Phantom Wallet (Not Detected) does not open install link/redirect

[Franck-Roger]

Describe the bug
When Phantom wallet is not installed, clicking its entry in the WalletModalProvider modal does nothing. It does not open https://phantom.app/ or any other link.
In contrast, when Solflare wallet is not installed, clicking its entry correctly redirects the user to its install page, confirming the general modal functionality works.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Ensure the Phantom browser extension is not installed in your web browser (e.g., Chrome, Firefox).

1. In the opened wallet connection modal, locate and click on the "Phantom" entry (which should appear as "Phantom" without a "Detected" badge).
2. Observe that nothing happens: no new tab opens, no redirect occurs, and no in-modal prompt for installation appears.

Expected behavior
When the Phantom wallet is not installed and its entry is clicked in the WalletModalProvider modal, the browser should open a new tab/window, redirecting the user to https://phantom.app/ (Phantom's official website) to facilitate its installation.

Screenshots

Only thing that happens is a new entry in localstorage walletName/Phantom.

Hi guys @AHMADADEROZAK, @abrzezinski94, have you ever tried this lib on mobile?

I have bunch of older apps implementing old wallet adapter and there it works smoothly everywhere so its for sure something in the newest version

[Franck-Roger]

Tks for your feedback guys. May i ask the version you are using on your older apps @abrzezinski94 ? Also on next?
@AHMADADEROZAK haven't checked for solutions for now.

Another issue on mobile (Android). Selecting Phantom => nothing happens. Selecting Solflare => redirected to app

@abrzezinski94 @Franck-Roger

Yes, I'm facing the same issue when using a fresh Next.js project or initializing a dApp via anchor init.

In my opinion, Phantom may detect local development environments as suspicious or potentially malicious, especially when running over localhost, IPs like 192.168.x.x, or using unsecured HTTP. It likely treats them as phishing attempts or scam dApps.

Phantom has built-in security checks that block or restrict websites trying to connect wallets if they:

Are served over HTTP (not HTTPS),

Are running on localhost or LAN,

Are missing valid SSL certificates,

Or request wallet permissions in a way that mimics scam/phishing behavior.

You can try deploying the dApp temporarily using a trusted HTTPS tunnel like ngrok or loca.lt and test again. This often solves the issue on mobile browsers.

yeah. try make new one

[Franck-Roger]

Just noticed that selecting Solflare wallet => readyState: 'Loadable' (allowing redirection to installation page/app wallet) and Phantom wallet => readyState:'NotDetected'.
