I'll run down my current v7.16.3 APK's cache, and take it for a spin. See how it gets on with my current rpc clients: BOINC Manager for Windows and BoincView (an oldie, but a goodie!). Edit - that was convenient - it had lost WiFi overnight and finished all its work anyway! Reported all now, starting on updates... Edit 2 - for the record, it's Samsung Galaxy Tab A 2019 10.1 Inch 32GB ARM ARMv8 Processor rev 4 (v8l) [Impl 0x41 Arch 8 Variant 0x0 Part 0xd03 Rev 4] Android 4.4.177-19577611 (Android 10) Einstein host 12798421 ID: 101673 ·

Fred's app has detected the IP address correctly, but doesn't recognise it as WiFi, and I can't get a normal manager to connect.. We're in contact on the BoincTasks forum. ID: 101703 ·

Several fruitless tests, and much hard work on Fred's part later, my tablet has a working client and it's crunching science for Einstein - and I can manager it from a perfectly normal Windows BOINC Manager. Still some rough edges to knock off, but it's getting there. Look out for Beta 7 or above on Fred's site. ID: 101820 ·

The only problem is getting the password to work. I turned password off and all is good. Reno, NV Team: SETI.USA ID: 104768 ·
