I guess we will find out :) I usually have it plugged in so after it is charged is the battery still warm? The left side seems slightly warm when the battery is charged.

I think my problems happen when it is being used. I don't close internet tabs or apps and it suspends for lack of memory. I only have 1GB of RAM. But it may also suspend when the battery temp reaches 55.

I could, of course, tell BOINC to suspend on battery but where's the fun in that?

A feature I would like is for BOINC to notice if a task keeps suspending and resuming and allow you to suspend for X minutes before retrying to resume the task again.

Edit: I installed CPU-Z and the battery temperature varies between 34-37 C. Plugged in or not.

Edit: I tried running 2 tasks and there is still 20% of RAM available. The battery temperature is still 34-37. Thank you Panther for pointing me to CPU-Z. Running a single task I have 5 days of runtime and 4055 points. I'll report how running two tasks work.

@Dave,

Have you tried Native BOINC?

What are your current setting that fail?

Running two tasks seems to be working for me. My results show no errors or invalids. I now have 6.25 days of runtime for 5150 points. I did increase max memory usage to 90%.

Edit: In BOINC points I have 735, averaging 117/day.

I have 2 invalids when running 2 tasks at a time. So I am going back to 1 task at a time and my other original settings (see above).

enels I wandered over to Enigma@Home for a while to see if the problem lay with my Nexus 5

With all four cores running on the standard boinc with standard settings 34 Valids and only a couple of errors so far

I don't need to nurse it in any way and I am getting the equivalent of 9443 WCG points a day from my phone.

Decoding long forgotten German WWII messages isn't really why I crunch and neither are the points.

Just think of the contribution to Humanitarian Research that is being lost by the Android capability not being properly harnessed here at WCG instead.

There's a problem with F@H Vina that needs resolving. The code is faulty not our devices

Hi Dave,

I understand your frustration. I haven't had any more errors/invalids since switching back. I haven't had valids either. 6 tasks are pending. My Galaxy 3 with only 1 GB will probably struggle with any project. I can see why you would want to keep all of your cores running. I'm going to stick it out here and see what happens. Have you tried running 1 VINA task alongside 3 Enigma? I think SIMAP has Android tasks as well. I'll report back here when I get more tasks finished.
