There is no 'setting' in this version of SMF which would have any impact on mobile phones.
No wap, wap2, imode?

But I've tried appending nowap (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php?nowap) and it proved futile. After reading up on it, I'm not the only one with this problem. Need to do more research.

What browser are you using on your phone, depending on what you have this will/can greatly affect what you see.
The default is Safari 533.1 on the phone.

But I've tried Dolphin HD in Desktop mode with the same results. Also tried another browser - funky name I can't remember - all with same results.

The only browser that works is Opera Mobile. And while I like Opera for desktops, Opera Mobile/Mini always seem lacking to me.

I know this. But it is annoying that mobile view is forced on me when I don't want it. I can view http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php on my phone without problems on my phone.

This may or may not work but if you go to internet options (I assume you are both using I.E.) and then over to advanced tab and under browsing check the box "Automatically recover from page layout errors with Compatibility View".

Also on my iphone, if you go to Settings / Safari (web provider) / Advanced / Debugger Console "on" will help resolve any web page errors.

SMF is using the latest version of their software.  We cannot move to that version until it is proven stable and all our plug-ins are supported.  It is a slow process.
