Is there a new version of Boinc from Berkeley yet that runs on ANdroid 5.+ and allows remote connections?
Arrived today. Not going well though. All I get is the startup logo for a while.
Image Then blank screen, then logo. Almost like a perpetual reboot. I assume this isn't normal?

I've tried with and without an SD Card (Fat32). With and without RJ45 ethernet. Even looked for it on http but nada

Have contacted seller so await their reply too

No, not normal. Don't need a SD card in it either.

I think this one is 'in the bag' unless there is some serious bunkering going on. Lead is 5.3M

Nice!

Other than the monthly Crunch Sans Frontiere, there was only one other WCG challenge in 2018 (from GridCoin). Need to plan some more in 2019 to dovetail in between the FB sprints https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2019_Form ... nned_races

utg can't catch me now so I've moved a machine over to Gerasim. TSC Russia is getting too close to dropping us 7 points. I put 12 threads on it last night and that stopped the bleeding but this will solve the problem.
