Hah, nothing quite so absurd, PC decided to up and die over the weekend that I keep my keys on, so rebuilt, but needed to get the keys out of cold storage.

does the GUI automagically work on android?

no

well yes if your screen is large enough

but there is no mobile ui

gotcha. so the software architecture would work, its just that there's no "mobile" subset of how things should look and work as of now

Jaquee created an UI but it went unmaintained so we removed it

oooh yeah

it probably needed an mobile first UI concept anyway

what do you mean

taking the desktop UI and trying to fit it to mobile usually doesn’t work well

ah, so a relatively large overhaul

if we want a proper mobile wallet yes

i wonder how easy it is to make the network components only work on certain type of networks.. i.e., cellular vs wifi

i know i've seen android software do that ( options to only download updates on wifi for example, or google drive only sync on wifi etc)

looks possible doc.qt.io/qt-5/qnetworkconfiguration.html#BearerType-enum

worst case is writing android / ios code by hand

hrm

i wonder if moneromooo would be happy with the idea of full pruning for a phone node. I mean, 25ish gigs isn't huge..... but its also not small.

running a full pruned node doesn’t require GUI?

?

so, currently you run can a full node on a phone (with cli), you could run a pruned node on a phone (with cli).

yes

Full as in not even a seventh ?

but nowhere in the daemon code is the ability for full prune. you always keep 1/8th of the chain

Eigth.

yeah

eighth.

Not super wild about it. You'd gain an extra... (75-25) / 7

So it's still ~18 GB.

And you become totally useless.

yep does not sound worth it

the amount of users who would run a node on a phone is super small anyway

There are other ways to make a light node if you're going to be useless.

i dunno. smart phone penetration is quite high. id say for most of the world its their only compute device

and we're effectively forcing these folks to rely on trusted third parties... ?

Like you said, they can run a node on Android.

right.

getmonero.org even offers prebuilt bins now :D

expecting a phone node to serve as a sync server or relay though... seems a bit much

?

just regarding data usage.

i mean, what are the stats on daily data usage for a node running in standard mode, well integrated into the network?

Can’t they simply limit connections / bandwidth?

right. and i don't think you could get any incoming connections with mobile anyway

I still think a light wallet server would make most sense on mobile. A node would kill your battery life.

Although hyc has been running a node on his phone fine :P

does the gui use flexbox layout styling?

I flex all over those bots

jonathancross, hycs running cli afaik

in your longpost, you mention connecting to a remote node.... again, some high % only have phones. there no remote node to connect to .

we're working with the theory that the individual wants to be as trustless as possible, so random public node won't do

kinghat: flexbox = CSS? no

luigi1111: hi luigi can we get merges this weekend pls sir
