You're on XDA too! Wow! I'm still a newb (not on XDA though), but add me on XDA if you want. Bad-Wolf. Also, please check out my introduction post! You can read it here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=15672.msg1418475#msg1418475

Anyway, I wish I could afford this app..

impressive that someone went to the effort
unfortunately 408khash will earn less than 0.00008439BTC/day at current difficulty or $0.0011342016 per day at current price
I know people are desperate to mine Bitcoins, but really?

I think it is more for benchmarking purposes.  Which phone is the most uber or something.  I can't imagine anyone is getting excited about the $0.41 per year it could earn (before ASICs arrive).

Considering the app is USD2.63 on the Play Store one can be reasonably certain it is not intended to mine for a profit.

some androids have quad-core processers; modifying this for litecoin mining (scrypt) would at least be somewhat more profitable, wouldn't it?

This already exists.

From the thread, though, it appears to be nearly useless. The network moves on to the next block before people can submit a single share. Funny that people complain about that on their phone, when that's what happens on my laptop. >.< (Though, the developer says he intends to upgrade it to be faster. We'll have to see.)

what about https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=93276.0? I suppose 1-2 kh/s (if you're lucky) is pretty terrible, but it's better than the miner you mentioned (without calculating power, it'll generate ~12-24 LTC per year) or the BTC miner.

That does look a lot better. But, you know, it's still ridiculously unprofitable. I'm not sure what the point is, but I suppose, "Because I can," is a decent enough reason.

Great job for makin' it, but it's still pretty useless..

Especially compared to the ASICs
Weell,, At least it's proven that it's possible

[btccashacc]

Do they have one of these for the Iphone?

Do they have one of these for the Iphone?

I found a web miner that claims compatibility with the iPhone. I don't have one, so I can't check, but here it is. http://www.bitarama.com/mobile-mining

(But, really, you should consider the fact that this is ridiculously unprofitable.)
