Hi,

since I have updated my Oneplus 3 from Android 6 to Android 7, BOINC no longer works.

I tried a new installation of 7.4.43. Task result: Download error
Then I updated to 7.4.53: Calculation error

See: http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/results.php?hostid=8257382

What's wrong?

I emailed Eric about it and got this answer:
Eric Korpela, Seti@Home Guru wrote:
Yes, google keeps changing the rules in the name of (a false sense of) security. What's worse, they keep changing the development kit so a command line build of the app no longer works. My last attempt at an android 7 build resulted in an app that doesn't work. I hope to get a chance to try again soon.
In other words, everything is wrong and you cannot run Seti on that device for the moment. Just suspend it.
It is possible other project's apps do work, but you'll have to test that and see.

Maybe you can also notify Eric that Android 8 will be released in about 4 month and that there's already a developer preview available:
