Oooh, good point... I've used Cyanogen before when I had the G2X, could be worth giving it a go again! Thanks!

Hey everyone!

I threw the android build onto my phone to assist in chewing on data.. but then I had a thought.

How much more juice could the phone deliver if there were a BARE BONES OS on it that was geared specifically to BOINC? Perfect for repurposing a powerful smartphone that you're not otherwise using. Even a couple of years of cranking away at full power would give SETI@home a lot of processing -- all for the cost of a USB port.

I've got a Galaxy Note 3 I'd love to turn into a BOINC powerhouse. :D

Thanks!

Okay, took some screenshots of my info... That you can find below.

As for my P/S, it's either an 800 or an 850, power *SHOULDN'T* be a problem. I wouldn't imagine so, anyway. As for heat, I have the fan clocked at 100% constantly to dissipate heat; when I'm just surfing, it runs at about 108 degrees. When SETI or a game is running, it can top out at 115-ish.

Any ideas?

Hi there!

David/N9JFE wrote me a few days ago, stating that my computer has been returning a lot of negative results lately; most likely as a result of my GPU.

...I haven't the first clue how to fix this. Any help would be freakin' awesome.

Thanks!
