cache issue

i'm using browscap ctools to make my site mobile aware, which it does very well except for one scenario.

using panels i am able to make a couple of different node types mobile aware. however, trying to do the same for site's splash page fails when caching is turned on. this is true for both drupal's native cache and boost. boost allows the admin to exclude pages, which i tried. but the same thing happened.

i noticed in my search for an answer that a similar issue has been identified with Browscap Block (https://drupal.org/node/1730962).

once suggestion in the node referenced above does seem to work. i installed cache exclude and the site seems to be stable.
