(Or is there another, more trustworthy, SSP than the one linked on the home page?) David signature sent back to alpha testing ID: 53699 ·

Then I let it have Einstein, but went back to NNT right away. David signature sent back to alpha testing ID: 53721 ·

Your Android hosts are running quite old Boinc versions, The latest one's report the Android version, then the servers know whether to send work or not. Claggy ID: 53724 ·

I don't like the Boinc GUI on the tablet, which is why I haven't updated the phone from its even older version. David signature sent back to alpha testing ID: 53733 ·

I finally broke down and upgraded my Boinc clients and both my phone and tablet immediately got work... and it's all 27my12ac units that are coming back invalid for everyone.

Congratulations, you just won a pile of horse manure :-) So as soon as I went and set NNT on my phone and unset it for Main, those self same 27my12ac units started validating, on both the phone and the tablet. I think I'll go ahead and switch the phone back to Beta, just because it hasn't contributed anything to the Beta effort since I upgraded Boinc (which I still don't like the GUI of).
