Re: Nothing to do -- Waiting for tasks...

Potentially resolved. I'll report back.

Uplinger pointed out my profiles had CPU disabled (lol...). Yea... anyways, I re-enabled that and so far everything is working. So for anyone smacking their head against the wall with such a simple self-created issue. Beware, check your custom profile settings!

(at some point I disabled that a while ago when testing GPU crunching).

Fix pointed out in this thread: https://secure.worldcommunitygrid.org/forums/...37428&offset=0#474915

EDIT: RESOLVED! Thanks!

Re: Nothing to do -- Waiting for tasks...

I had the exact same issue, and it also worked for me to change the CPU setting from Device Profiles.

Out of curiosity, did you use BAM to manage all your phones?

I for once used BAM, and I also remember that when I was testing the GPU application, I disabled CPU crunching from inside BAM (90% sure) and it might have messed up my WCG CPU setting indirectly.

Re: Nothing to do -- Waiting for tasks... [RESOLVED]

As for "Transfer tasks on WiFi only", the recommendation is actually to have this ticked as else the agent would start transferring data across your 3g/4g data-plan. Mine is thus set to only transfer results and fetch new tasks while on wlan or wifi hotspot.

You shouldn't need to worry much about your data plan, i allow it to send and receive work over 3G because it only seems to use about 0.5MB per task (could be less). The WCG system requirements say that it's only like 0.3MB or something for FightAIDS@Home Vina.
