Hi,

After a recent mail by SETI@home I decided to participate again, on my phone.
But every work unit so far has been suspended and deleted due to a "processing error" (verwerkingskosten in Dutch). This is very unpleasant and not really stimulating! All work units stop between 0.9 and 32% so far and none has been finished. What to do? What is the cause?

I am also having the same problem with bulk of my WU after processing upto 90% the WU is reported as Computation Error. It is really frustrating to see almost every unit fail. I have processed over 30 units, but I think only 2-3 have not resulted in a Computation Error.

Android Device is a HTC One (M7), running the standard BOINC client. I am also running Einstein with no apparent problems.

I would like to continue running SETI, but at the moment it just does not seem worth it if all the tasks are just going to fail.

Any help would be appreciated.

There has been a fair bit of discussion about Android problems in Number Crunching - the first thread I came up with was:
http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/forum_thread.php?id=75892

On the face of it your problems look similar to those described there - and are being addressed by one of the developers.
