No moon walking yet, yes, it's only an agent for which build development has started.
----------------------------------------And "Add support for the various new platforms (AARCH64, MIPS64, x86_64) to the GUI." too. The projects have to decide if they if there's enough body to support science app porting too for each of these :P) [Edit 1 times, last edit by SekeRob* at Jun 20, 2016 3:23:42 PM] |

Just got build 7.4.49 from Google play store which has these additional platforms supported. How to test? Find a project that has science apps for these.
So far this version runs fine on my Android ARMv7 Marshmallow 6.01 [meaning still getting the occasional middle of the night SIGSEGV task errors] |

All the hardware platforms for android that are now supported
./build_openssl_x86.sh ./build_openssl_x86_64.sh ./build_openssl_mips.sh +./build_openssl_mips64.sh ./build_curl_arm.sh ./build_curl_arm64.sh ./build_curl_x86.sh ./build_curl_x86_64.sh ./build_curl_mips.sh +./build_curl_mips64.sh ./build_boinc_arm.sh ./build_boinc_arm64.sh ./build_boinc_x86.sh ./build_boinc_x86_64.sh ./build_boinc_mips.sh +./build_boinc_mips64.sh Whilst some had issue with builds 7.4.47-7.4.50, things seems to have settled with 7.4.51 from the play store [on my Nexus 7 with bog down Marshmallow 6.01, never saw any problem arise... run update and resume automagically] [ot] Since switching to the shortest possible USB cord, 25cm, fed from a 6000mAh 30Wh 5V 2A powerpack, no more errors, no SIGSEGV's and no discharging running 4 cores... power stability an issue resolved?[/ot] |

I wonder if the software update fixed your issue, or maybe since replacing the charging cable has allowed a better connection to alleviate any bad power issues. I have had to replace several micro USB cables, just from the constant plug/unplug seems to wear out the connector and create a bad connection.

There's also 32 bit enabling for the added processors coming, so who knows what's in the future of WCG. :D
ot/ The SIGSEGV are back in full force again, 2 this morning for Zika. Shortly after manually resuming, during file managing which I do with FX, and other usage periods. A beta is said to be looking for fails with Zika, so who knows a new version addresses the persisting and recurring problem. /ot |

First reports of the latest Beta Android agent running X86 (at the alien search nation ;), the hardware being a Nextbook? Things are moving.

They have a large user base, so I guess it makes sense that they would adopt faster to take advantage.
