My results on Google Nexus 7 2013 (4G) - deb
1. Can you receive coins? (small amounts to avoid losing them)
Yes
2. Can you send coins?
Yes
Its says it's still waiting because I was still syncing the blockchain
Thanks, I recieved the 0.05 QRK.
3. Can you scan a QR code from another phone or Paper Wallet (to send coins).
Yep. send the dev and the guy who posed above me .05 QRK.
4. Can you request coins via email or other android service?
Havent tested
5. How long does it take to sync the blockchain?
Took about 30 minutes. Needs a lite version if possible, or the ability to turn off syncing on data!
This is a lite version, but we will strive to make it lighter. The older versions of the Bitcoin and Litecoin android wallets had options for only syncing when plugged into power. There may be away to only have it sync when on wifi. These are options we will be looking into, but there are reasons why some of these features were taken out of the Bitcoin Wallet.
6. Does it drain out your battery after an hour?
Went from 100% to 88% in exactly one hour. Android reports that the wallet app took half of that
This is another area for improvement. The Hash function may be using much of that power and there is a way to reduce it.
7. How much space does it take up on your phone?
Android reports 51MB
8. Does it calculate exchange rates properly?
Reports $0.0701 for USD. Sounds about right.
Needs the ability to add nodes!
There are only 2 in the app, and one is always +/- 100 blocks apart.
Sending and receiving is deathly slow compared to how fast quark is.
Adding nodes is a function that will be added later. Even the Bitcoin Wallet doesn't support the "addnodes=" and peers.dat features of the desktop client.
