I've added an Asus EE-pad two

I've added an Asus EE-pad two days ago.
For some reason I installed native Boinc on SD-card. The result was: almost all wu's (@ all projects) failed.
[22:43:06][32002][ERROR] Input file on command line ../../projects/albert.phys.uwm.edu/p2030.20120226.G194.26-02.01.S.b6s0g0.00000_1510.bin4 doesn't agree with input file ../../projects/albert.phys.uwm.edu/p2030.20120226.G194.26-02.01.S.b6s0g0.00000_1492.bin4 from checkpoint header.
[22:43:06][32002][ERROR] Demodulation failed (error: 2)!

Yesterday I moved the app back to internal memory; the first wu finished now, waiting for validation.

Will report that to native boinc as well.

RE: I've attached my HTC

Message 79610 in response to message 79608

Quote:

I've attached my HTC One S to Albert@home, not had any validations yet, eithier the app gets a SIGSEGV: segmentation violation, or if it completes, it then gets a Validate error, running the Official Android 7.0.58 Boinc,
one thing to Note, my Android kernel is newer than anyone else's here, being Android 3.4.10-g8d7cd09, it has some new Power Save Options (which i have switched off, but i don't trust the kernel not to do other power save things unbided)

Computer 7471

I was previously running NativeBoinc on the HTC One S, Both the Setiathome app and the PrimeGrid apps would also regularly get segmentation violations too,
the GridGrid app would sometimes get app error: 9, i think this is when android kills the app to free up memory, also often one of the PrimeGrid Wu's would error if:
a) the HTC switched over to battery power, b) If the Play Store downloaded and then updated any apps, it wasn't the downloading that caused the errors, more the updating,
earlier when i ran the older kernel (I think it was around 3.0.x), i'm sure i only got the app error: 9 condition,

Thanks for the report!

I see one, maybe two other devices in the DB that might have similar issues. I'll have to investigate. Thanks for reporting this!!

I have added an Odroid-u2 yesterday. The first wu finished now, runtime 36774 sec. Will try different projects first and later a 14 day Albert-only session to see tha RAC with 4 cpu's active.
Boinc sees it as an Arm v7 @ 1704MHz.

Any idea on the reason for the Validate error yet? Is it a Android Boinc Bug, an App Bug, a Server problem, or some other reason?

Only one more segmentation violation since my last report, rest of Wu's all Validate error or pending.

No idea yet :-(. Since this seems to affect other projects as well, I guess it's most likely not a science app problem. I also can't think of a way how a BOinc server side problem could trigger this. Strange..

That app worked, shame I've only had one of those Wu's so far.

Installed the Boinc 7.1.10

Message 79616 in response to message 79615

Installed the Boinc 7.1.10 Alpha client from Google Play, shame it gave me a new host ID and didn't carry on from the last installation.

We'll soon see if the Neon app is any different under this client.

Message 79617 in response to message 79616

Same validate errors with the v1.06 (NEON) app on Boinc 7.1.11:

All tasks for computer 7663

Hopefully i'll get a v1.06 (VFP) Wu soon.

Another way to note, all those validate errors didn't drive my Max tasks per day down, should it?
