On Android (i.e. Linux) BOINC gets CPU info by parsing /proc/cpuinfo.
Maybe the format of this has changed.
Can someone who's seeing this problem please post the contents of /proc/cpuinfo
on their device?
Thanks -- David

The reason I'm posting this is Eric has released an Arm Seti app for Linux, at 
present it only works on Armv7l processors, and not on Armv6l processors,
The different Boinc's available all show incomplete CPU information, as well as 
using a generic arm platform (for repository builds),
so he's had to remove all the restrictions to allow hosts to get work, meaning 
Armv6l hosts get work that can't be completed successfully.
All that he recent clients report is 'ARM': LocutusOfBorg's ppa Boinc 7.6.2:
http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/show_host_detail.php?hostid=7506529
Self compiled Boinc 7.2.47:
http://setiweb.ssl.berkeley.edu/beta/show_host_detail.php?hostid=74138
Back in the days of Boinc 7.0.27 it did report 'ARMv7 Processor rev 5 (v7l)', but not 'ARM' as the vendor:
http://setiweb.ssl.berkeley.edu/beta/show_host_detail.php?hostid=75690
or 'ARMv6-compatible processor rev 7 (v6l)'
http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/show_host_detail.php?hostid=7470252
Can we have it fixed in each head, so both are displayed, like the Android clients report: ARM
ARMv7 Processor rev 5 (v7l)
(4 processors)
NativeBoinc also manages to report the CPU speed, is it possible for that to be added to the Android and Linux clients,
so it mirrors what the x86 Windows/Linux/Mac clients report?
