My Android phone typically completes a WU in 14-20 hours. However, Task 2726215 took almost 56 hours to complete. Right now, it's clocked over 65 hours on Task 3397472 and seems stuck at 97% complete. The time to completion periodically cycles up and down. I'm thinking I need to abort this one.

This seems to happen from time to time with all projects. The suggested approaches are:
1. Suspend and unsuspend the task
2. If that doesn't work shut down BOINC and any running tasks
3. If that doesn't work reboot the device
4. Lastly if none of the above worked, abort the task

Thanks, MarkJ... All but the abort has been tried as part of normal use of the phone. It turns out that it does seem to be progressing as it's now at 98.6%. I might let it go a little longer unless admin Radim suggests otherwise.

Cheers,

I can't offer any help for the long-running tasks, but I can verify that many tasks complete much faster. I just completed my first several ARM tasks on an Android phone in under 20 hours each.
