I switched to my backup phone....no silkroad after login...blank screen. I can do everything else internet normally. Only Silkroad is blank with words above showing I'm there but not allowed to see anything.
Android Samsung user.

buy a computer

Your ISP can't block Silkroad because you're not even using your original IP address when connecting to it. The blank screen is probably just due to a problem with your phone's OS.
-
as you are using a phone rather than a computer chances are you are using tor2web rather than tor itself.
if you are accessing Silk Road via tor2web (silkroadvb5piz3r.tor2web.org instead of silkroadvb5piz3r.onion) then yes - your ISP can see exactly what you are doing
-
Please, buy a computer.
It will be far safer than using a phone, and tor2web does nothing to protect your anonymity.
-
I enter same address as you. Are you saying I'm already tor2web or am switched?
I'm considering firing up the puter anyhow. I want torbutton.

From what I've read you're actually using a mobilized version of Tor (not Tor2Web) [http://www.mobileactive.org/howtos/user-guide-to-orbot]. The reason for the blank screen is probably just because Silkroad isn't optimized for mobile surfing but I'm not completely sure.
