Folding via your mobile phone

Basically, a folding client runs on your phone when it's on a charger, is 100% charged and connected to wifi. As someone who charges their phone overnight this suits me more than leaving a PC running. I tried it for the first time last night and this morning (when I unplugged it) it said I'd 'folded' for 4 hours.

There doesn't appear to be the ability to join the dMw group but I'm happy just to contribute anonymously.

Installed on my N5 & N7. Likewise I charge both overnight.

sadly folding on mobile seems to overheat my LG G3 while charging

Mine doesn't overheat (no warning etc.) but it is hot when I unplug it after a night's folding.

Likewise, warm rather than hot. Obviously the little cogs and wheels are spinning.

No idea whats wrong with mine then, got the same issue when i use the gps while charging. Pops up iwht a warning its overheating, and after 5 mins it shuts down.

guess ill have to have a little talk with LG
