You need to use Boinc 7.18.1. Under Enable remote control there's a box that you need to tick.

You need to enable remote control under boinc preferences on your androids.

Maybe something to do with the clocks going back?

Within minutes of my previous post I started getting Work units!

I'm not getting any units for any of Androids. I've enabled Remote Control, tried a reset and removed and added WUprop again but the message still says no tasks sent, any ideas?

Tasks running for 5 minutes and credit is 0.2. However my app hours aren't going up.

You should enable remote control in prefs



O.K, Looks to be working now, Thanks.

If WUProp is the only active project, the workunit won't end until another project will be active.


No, my Androids are all running Universe at home. They've all moved on slightly to 99.966 now so I'll leave them running.

I have some WuProp test applications running for Android but they looked to have stopped at 99.857%

Just checked some of my androids. Looks like no tasks at the moment. There were a few tasks on the 20th of March, one per machine, but they are awaiting validation.

Stats app hour recording is back up and running.

I still have my Stars for the 380 applications I had to 100 hours or more but I am only showing 368 on my account.

So hopefully it is a database update that will get things sorted out.

Thanks WUProp team for getting the project back up and running.

Yes, my apps have gone from 362 to 366 overnight so gradually being updated.

That's great.

looks like it started on the day the second phone was installed. Have you given the phones separate identities which is something you can do in the latest version of Boinc?

This is an Alpha version and every version since 7.14.1 has various issues. I'm still using 7.4.53 which is rock solid on everything from Android 4.42 to Android 10.

Yes, seen this many times. Usually sorts itself out after 3 attempts to get the correct task.

My Android 10 works fine. I've noticed that some of the newer versions of Android may need a few attempts before the correct file to run WUProp is downloaded.

Thanks for your advice, to be clear, both the routers I am using (Netgears) are hard wired to give out a maximum of 32 wifi addresses per channel. I know that if you are using ethernet cables then the limit as you say is 253. Yes, the range the Netgear routers run is 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.0.255, the other router I have is a TPLink which has an address of 192.168.1.1. I've run a few checks using IP scanner and this can see the Router but if I type in 192.168.1.1 then I can't access it to change anything. Now then, when my Internet was upgraded to Fibre To Cabinet this router no longer worked so I had to purchase the Netgear routers. The strange thing is though that I was able to plug it in to the new Netgear router and it worked just fine then when we had a power outage a few months ago it reverted to 192.168.1.1 and I've no idea how to get into the router to change the parameters. I also dug out an old Netgear WAP which should have an address of 192.168.0.227 but this shows up as 192.168.1.227 and I can't access it...As my wife made me remove all of my ethernet cables and hubs a while ago I started using Powerline connectors but since the power cut one of them no longer works, shrug.
One other option I have is to get a Hauwei internet box but these only support 10 connections and cost around £30 a month.

You can try resetting it to factory setting. First find factory reset button - it is in small hole, usually on back of device. Then plug in your router, and press that button (you will need pin or something like this to reach it). After this wait a bit and try to connect to it. Make sure you connect from "inside" network of the router, access from "external" network usually is disabled by default. You may also need to use cable connection, as access via WiFi also may be disabled by default.


Thanks, but I already tried that, not only on the TP Link router but on the Netgear WAP plus a couple of other old routers I have stored away. They all get IP's in the range 192.168.1.x. I'm thinking that my router doesn't have any IP's to allocate in the 192.168.0.x range due to all the other wifi devices I'm running ?

I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2013 edition I believe, can I run BOINC on that ???


Yes, I had one of these that my wife gave me when her contract ended. You can run most if not all of the available android projects.

Pete


Yeah I'm trying to get it to run now but can't get the Host to connect for some reason, not sure if I'm putting the right info in ...


Did you get the Boinc app from PlayStore?
