The new 7.16.16 version for Android was released on Feb 16 and there were a flurry of testing reports and some git tickets, opened maybe 12 if the thread is correct. Then nothing since Mar 3 which is the last thread posting.

I find it very hard to believe that the version developers after a couple years of effort would throw up their hands and walk away.

Are updates being posted somewhere else ?

Thanks

There has continued to be massive activity on GitHub, but it's hard to get a comprehensive overview. Most of the activity seems to have been computer science 'process' activity (especially in the area of automated testing), rather than scientific research 'purpose' activity.

I am particularly concerned by the stress on automated testing. From my observations, this can lead to an excess of complacency: "The code compiles, so it must be right". I have seen a number of logic errors making their way into the code: the computer science is right, but the end result is meaningless.

I have a private saying for that sort of code: "Legal but stupid".

You'll need root access before files in the root directory become visible. I managed to copy the whole data directory at one time to another drive (on my PC) and could see the directory and contents using Total Commander, but that was on Android 6 and 7. Since 9 it's completely locked down. I'll search what the command was as I put it onto one of the mailing lists at the time, so others could use it.

Ah yes, using adb.
See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13006315/how-to-access-data-data-folder-in-android-device

Command to use from a PC's command line, while using a data connection to the phone:

abd backup -all /data/data/edu.berkeley.boinc


This makes a backup of the whole data directory into the directory you're at with the command line.
Then you can use https://sourceforge.net/projects/adbextractor/ to read its contents. The data directory's contents are at /data/data/edu.berkeley/boinc/r/client

As said, this only works on pre-9 Android.

Sadly, I updated to Android9 without thinking, so now awaiting some clever clogs solution to this.
