It wouldn't let me post anywhere but n00b forum  Embarrassed

But anyway I read that there is OpenCL support for Nexus 10.. Does anyone have any idea if it's possible to mine on a Nexus 10?

And would it be best to mine BTC or LTC?

Using Android, or rooted and booted to Linux.

There was an Android mining app at one time.  

Either way, with ASICs shipping don't waste your time even looking at doing that for Bitcoin, and for Litecoin an AndLTC miner exists but you'll barely see Litecoin revenue from that either.

I believe it was AndLTC that I did download.  There was one other app that looked identical except it was inverted colors.

I went to /data/data/ dir and copied minerd-Regular binary and put it in /system/xbin/, with screen on I get about 2.5KH/s.  Doesn't seem to help using more than 2 cores even tho a quad-core tablet.

But the question was, how can I enable GPU-hashing? Would I have to compile minerd for arm with opencl, then would it work?

Possible? Yes

Would it be a waste of time and energy? Yes
