How to stop carousel auto-slide in mobile devices only?

Question

I'm trying to stop my carousel to auto slide for mobile devices only. I tried to change the data-interval thru js but it's not working for some reason. Any idea how to do it? Here is my html code for the carousel:

<div id="x-corp-carousel" class="carousel slide hero-slide hidden-xs" data-ride="carousel"> 
        <!-- Indicators -->
        <ol class="carousel-indicators">
          <li data-target="#x-corp-carousel" data-slide-to="0" class="active"></li>
          <li data-target="#x-corp-carousel" data-slide-to="1"></li>
          <li data-target="#x-corp-carousel" data-slide-to="2"></li>
          <li data-target="#x-corp-carousel" data-slide-to="3"></li>
          <li data-target="#x-corp-carousel" data-slide-to="4"></li>
        </ol>

        <!-- Wrapper for slides -->
        <div class="carousel-inner index-only" role="listbox">
          <div class="item active"> <img src="img/hero-slide-2.jpg" alt="..."> 
            <!-- <div class="carousel-caption">
              <h1>Revitalize Your Body and Mind Strengthen Immunity and Recover Faster </h1>
            </div>--> 
          </div>
          <div class="item"> <img src="img/hero-slide-3.jpg" alt="..."> 
            <!--<div class="carousel-caption">
              <h1> Feel Energized and Focused All Day Boost Performance and Mental Clarity </h1>
            </div>--> 
          </div>
          <div class="item"> <img src="img/hero-slide-nighfall.jpg" alt="..."> 
            <!-- <div class="carousel-caption">
              <h1>Relax with Premium Hemp Extract Fall Asleep Faster and Wake Up Rested </h1>
            </div>--> 
          </div>
          <div class="item"> <img src="img/hero-slide-1-thrive.jpg" alt="..."> 
            <!-- <div class="carousel-caption">
              <h1>Relax with Premium Hemp Extract Fall Asleep Faster and Wake Up Rested </h1>
            </div>--> 
          </div>
          <div class="item"> <img src="img/hero-slide-4d.jpg" alt="..."> 
            <!-- <div class="carousel-caption">
              <h1>Relax with Premium Hemp Extract Fall Asleep Faster and Wake Up Rested </h1>
            </div>--> 
          </div>
        </div>

        <!-- Controls --> 
      </div>
      <!-- #x-corp-carousel-->

Try first to remove data-ride="carousel" from html, and then use some custom width that you are happy to disable slider for, something like this: (custom BP var is breakpoint)

 // set breakpoint width var BP = 900; // start carousel $('.carousel').carousel({ interval: (window.innerWidth<BP)?false:5000 }); // if user rotates phone orientation | window resite $(window).on('resize', function(ev){ if( window.innerWidth < BP ){ $('.carousel').carousel({ interval: false }); } else { $('.carousel').carousel({ interval: 5000 }); } })
