As far as testing these things:
 -  Allow unbanked to be compensated without PODC Updates
We need to ask Rastiks to not shut down the cell phone, and not add any non-ARM rac.
Looking in my Sanctuary for Rastiks, I dont see your CPID in the list : fe553a955f0e21d46724858870014cbe.  (I found your CPID by looking at the unbanked report in the pool), anyway I see Rastiks is on the team, but your not associated in Biblepay (exec associate).  I see this by typing exec datalist dcc and do not see your CPID.  This would be a nice feature to test, so if either Rastiks could you please associate your cpid or someone else could start an unbanked CPID also?

sorry, I was off for few days, but I associated my cpid weeks ago:

{
  "Command": "getboincinfo",
  "CPID": "fe553a955f0e21d46724858870014cbe",
  "Address": "yY6uBmPyks4VEBjZ18Kzw1LUNiTewAXSr3",
  "CPIDS": "fe553a955f0e21d46724858870014cbe;",
  "CPID-Age (hours)": 422182,

Will continue running boinc on phone+tablet.

Rastiks I see your machine right above your other ARM has 1.9GB ram and a BLANK for the processor.  What machine is that?

That was actually one of my ARM single-board computers. Not an Android mobile or tablet. But since it is running Linux, although I was able to connect it to rosetta@home, I wasn't able to solve any task with it, since Rosetta does not support ARM on Linux (other boinc projects do). And I tried very hard :-)

In general, you cannot assume that any ARM processor is a mobile or tablet: there are very high-performance multicore ARM servers (e.g. https://cavium.com/product-thunderx-arm-processors.html), there is even a 99$ ARM notebook (https://www.pine64.org/?page_id=3707).

BUT, the fact that you cannot leverage Linux-based ARM machine in Rosetta protects us a bit.

Sorry, I meant your android device. It is also an ARM device.

ah, yeah. It seems that just half of them, 4 out of 8.

Hi, could you tell me how many cores your using on your ARM device for Rosetta? Thanks.

None. Rosetta does not work on ARM on Linux:

The first machine I tried was an ARM (aarch64) and didn't work.  This is because, I believe, Rosetta does not craft their work units to process correctly in ARM.

That is a shame - I actually do have several ARM servers that I use to mine BBP currently. I would love to use them for rosetta too. Not mentioning all the Raspberry/Bananapi/Odroid computers that geeks like me usually have at home :) and could be leveraged.

As I wrote, if ARM works with Android (working on my tablet), it should work with Linux - I guess it just needs to be set up at rosetta servers.. And it works for some other boinc projects, e.g. Einstein (https://boinc.berkeley.edu/projects.php). If there is a good point of contact for Rosetta, I would try to reach them and ask for adding ARM+Linux support.

Some more info about Rosetta on ARM platform. I was able to run Rosetta@Home on my Samsung Android tablet (ARMv7) with the app from the Google Play Store!
But it seems that Rosetta@Home does not support ARM on Linux (e.g. Rapsberry running Ubuntu Linux), only Android.
Some other Boinc projects do support that, e.g. Einstein@Home.

Logs from the same ARM Linux machine:

This list of projects shows what platforms are supported by what projects, ad it seems that ARM+Linux is not supported by Rosetta:
https://boinc.berkeley.edu/projects.php

Do we have some contact on Rosetta@Home devs/admins? If they support ARM on Android, I do not see a reason for not supporting ARM on Linux, it must be just a server setting...

I have just tried running boinc on ARM. Not successful though, I'm not getting any tasks :

Anyone  else tried ARM (e.g. Raspberry?)
