This has been solved today by the following steps:
1. Removing BOINC client from the phone with all data
2. Reinstalling BOINC from Google Play
3. Reattaching Rosetta@Home using the following data
Email: <valid email, the same as for other computers>
Name: <the same email>
Password: <valid password>
4. Got 10 tasks, 4 of them started automatically
5. The device immediately apperead in the Device List

It looks like step #3 Name value was the key: if it is NOT your email, the association may be not working correctly

SOLVED
2) Questions and Answers : Windows : Unexpected difference in reward points (Message 89761)

Hello all,

I am using two computers for Rosetta@Home computations:
1. Intel Core i5 6500 Skylake with 4 threads, each processes 1 WU in 8 hours giving around 500 points per WU
2. Intel Core i7 2720 QM with 8 threads, each processed 1 WU in 8 hours giving around 150 points per WU

The second computer supports Hyper-Threading, so giving more threads with still 4 cores. I could understand if processing time would be 16 hours, however it remains 8 hours, while reward points are more than 2 times lower. This does not happen while computing for World Community Grid: computer #1 needs 3 h per WU and gets 150 points, while computer #2 needs 8 hours per WU and also getting 150 points.

Could anyone explain why the computer #2 is so less efficient for Rosetta@Home? Is Rosetta just gives any CPU 8 hours and then cutts off and what's done is done?

Cheers

Hello all,

I have used my OnePlus 5T running Snapdragon 845 with 8 cores for Rosetta@home via BOINC client for Android.
Despite multiple completed workunits, the device has never appeared in my Rosetta profile https://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/hosts_user.php and no any results in https://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/results.php?userid=2022384&offset=0&show_names=0&state=0&appid=7 (Android tasks).

The account was correctly typed in, the device was visible in my profile page of World Community Grid, but not here.

Has anyone experienced similar issues?

Cheers
