Rosetta 5296 258780 6.19 (0.34 - 93.77) 10910 Rosetta Mini 9490 121991 6.08 (0.34 - 108.38) 8049 Rosetta for Android 0 0 --- 0 I see there's no android tasks available at the moment. Is this a temporary or permanent situation? Want to find one of the largest known primes? Try PrimeGrid. Or help cure disease at WCG.

At present there are no Android tasks. Tasks of this type are only created occasionally. You should not expect a steady stream of Android work units. Rosetta Moderator: Mod.Sense |

The Rosetta android application was used for this study: http://science.sciencemag.org/content/358/6369/1461/ There are a number of researchers working on the next android application update related to RNA folding and cyclic-peptide design. Hopefully the app will be updated soon and a new batch of workunits will be available. If there are no tasks available, there just isn't any work to be done at that moment in time. |

Any updates on the new Android app? I just got a used Moto Z2 Force with 8 cores (only 4 useful out of the box, needs rooting and the powersaver governor installed to use 8) with only some minor screen burn-in. There are gobs of ugly, abused, yet functional Z2 Forces with 8 cores selling for $50 a pop on eBay. While shopping, I noticed the benchmarks of the newest top sellers made 100% improvement in Geekbench 4 benchmarks over 2 year old top sellers. Major computational advance. I have 10 (14 after root and governor change, 2.46Ghz overheats the battery) newer Android cores ready to run Rosetta tomorrow. |

Any Updates here? Switched all of my old phones to R@h and didn't get any WU since then. Thank you in advance

Would be nice to know if they are still working on the Android application. |

I'm also interested - especially if related to covid-19 given the current situation. |

So my phones aren't getting any WUs. I have an old Samsung Galaxy S4, Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo and a Sony Xperia Z3 My S5 Neo shows an info where it says: "Rosetta for Portable Devices needs 1907.35 MB RAM but only 927.27 MB is available for use. My S4 and the Z3 aren't showing any messages but they still don't get any WU. I've looked it up: Samsung Galaxy S4: 2 GB RAM Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo: 2 GB RAM Sony Xperia Z3: 3 GB RAM Any infos here?

So my phones aren't getting any WUs. Yes, clearly. Insufficient RAM. In your settings, you have 50% RAM set. Even if you used 100% RAM those phones would barely run. Your phones have insufficient spec to run Rosetta, but they might have enough to run WCG. Give that project a try.

Yes, clearly. Insufficient RAM. Yes I changed the settings to 80% RAM. But you're right. It's not that good ;) I'm crunching for WCG already but wanted to crunch for F@h too - this is why I was asking. Thanks for your answer Sid Clery! Question: Is there a Phone/Tablet with more than 4 or even 6 GB of RAM?

Absolutely. Not bad! Didn't even know that or can't remember (because I watched the Galaxy Unpacked Event back in February when they presented the S20). Good to know! So even the S10 has 8 GB of RAM. This might be my next phone ;) Thanks guys! Have a good evening and stay healthy!
