If you have an unlimited plan, check out FoxFi. If you don't, it may not be worth it.

Unlimited 3G. I'm using Straight Talk.

hat · Feb 2, 2015

I had straight talk for a while. It's not quite unlimited. It's actually unlimited up to either 2 or 3GB. How they can say it's unlimited when it's really not beats me... Unlimited until it runs out I guess. Just like my car can take me an unlimited amount of places... until I'm out of gas.

So I tried adding an account manager for wcg to see where I could get with my tablet. I logged in to this account manager (BAM) and added wcg by URL in BOINC. It did this... Guess BOINC doesn't like Intel/x86 Android.

I got BOINC running on my Motorola Droid Maxx, some time ago. It worked, ran jobs and used up my battery like there was a hole in it along with heating it up, HOT!

Meanwhile, it took better than 24 hours to run a single job, FA@H, no less. I dumped it.

I know that BOINC and WCG work on ATOM's, [ION] has at least one he has used/using. What version of Android are you using? KitKat worked, as I mentioned, but unsure of Lollipop.

Motorola and Verizon apparently are evil empire-ist's and won't allow me to root my phone and get Lollipop. Unless, of course, they decide that in one of their many updates, they will give it to me. Unlikely.

Yes I do have an Atom--but it's one of the old x86_64 ones running regular Windows 7. It does OK, I guess....about 430 PPD or so.

Guy's...I may have been premature. Pande Group surprised all 4p Folders today with another generation of "-bigadv like" work units, so I may not be selling the servers. These new "Many Core" work units look like they produce 10% more PPD than the old ones. Huge news for us 4P folders. Sorry for the confusion with selling the servers.

Awesome news to hear that you still have work for them! :toast:

But if you do decide to sell, throw me a note....

Bit o'news from the desk of Arjai.

I have, now, a desk. Located on the second floor of the Bethel Hotel, at the Mission I stay in. It includes a locking door, two chest's of drawers, a 4' clothes rod and shelf, a single bed and a nightstand.

I have a window facing west. I do not, yet, have a chair for my desk. They say one will be provided for me, eventually. I plan to get one online or from one of the local shops, I want to be able to sit back. I have already ordered 24, really nice, mahogany wooden hangers and a Trinity 4 Tier wire shelving unit, in Bronze powdercoat.

http://shop.trinityii.com/shelvin/3...6x14x54-indoor-wire-shelving-dark-bronze.html

I plan to put my farm on the Rack, along with some books.
I need another paycheck, or two, to have it all up and crunching, again.
I need to buy an addition LED Monitor to sister between the P4 Cruncher and the Mad Cruncher. Also need a pair of PS2 Keyboards and mouses and pads. This 'Ole Cruncher has that stuff and will be upgraded to a better Socket A board with a new heatsink, I am gonna buy. @ThE_MaD_ShOt has got some goodies for my Socket A (feel free to finally send them my way!) that are gonna make This 'Ole Comp an even better Socket A Cruncher!! I can't wait to overclock the snot out of some old Athlon chips!!

Not an issue--all of the work is calculated twice by different volunteers to make sure that there were no mistakes...and sometimes it takes a while for it to come back from the other one

I ran mine under linux. Also is there even win 7 drivers for that 939 setup?. There wasn't for mine as to why I ran ubuntu on it.

Vista 64 drivers would be needed...

eidairaman1 said:

There wasn't any Vista drivers for mine either which sucked. So it was either win xp or Linux.

eidairaman1 · Feb 3, 2015

I think youd have to modify inf files for amd64 parameters and install anyway when driver signing comes up. I did for my monitor in the sig rig. I forgot nv screwed all a64 users in the day. Even axp users got boned.

That device is a Qualcomm chip set. Krait chip, ARM architecture. Mine is an android tablet with an Intel x86 atom.

x86 in android seems few and far between. I see in the news either Quallcom (Snapdragon, Adreno) or Nvidia (Tegra, Kepler).

My Venue 7 is nice, albeit quirky. I chalk that up to the x86 atom. Android does not belong on x86, I think.

Before my Venue, I never thought I'd want a tablet. Now I have one, and I find myself wanting a Nexus. I can't root my Venue, and a Nexus I could easily do that with... and it would have the traditional ARM hardware.

Toothless · Feb 3, 2015

So I picked up a 16GB Kingston USB drive today for $10. Shows up as 14.4GB and I like it so far. It has style with a metal covering, and doesn't have a cheap feel. I might pick up another down the road for Linux rigs as this one is data transfers and OS installations.

Sell it! Just not to anyone on our Team! :laugh:

Then use the money to help you get the Nexus, you want. If you are patient, you find a deal you cannot refuse. Works every time!

Well it looks like my 8320 rig is going to temporarily give up it's mobo as MSI has decided it will graciously accept it back in trade for one that has all of it's Pci-e x16 working. But don't fear Newegg reminded me that I have a wish list and agreed to sell me another matx board to take the msi's place while it is on vacation. Well actually the only things I am going to borrow from the 8320 rig will be the proc and memory. With the board I have a case and psu coming. By the time the msi board makes it way back home I will have another proc and memory so the matx setup will become another full time cruncher. Oh and the proc that will be on the way soon will actually go in my main rig ( Amd said I was slacking and needed a proc that can run 4.8 or so stably 24/7 while crunching) and it's 8350 will go in the matx board once all said and done. So basically in a nutshell I am getting one badass board that the top pci slot took a crap fixed. Actually it took a crap 6 months or so ago. I am just now deciding to get it fixed before it's warranty runs out in about a year and a half from now. Faster proc for my main rig and a new Fx cruncher in bound.
