@Vargo

Thanks for the detailed information. Based on that I made a small change which might help. Unfortunately I don't have an Exynos 990 device, so I can't test it, but I think it's worth a try. Please download and install the APK file again (version 0.2 now).

@akigo: I waited longer this time, and after around 2 mins it went from KG is initialising to dead/crashed.

Here's the platforms from clpeak:
vendor lib64
system vendor lib64
system vendor lib
mali
pocl
default

@Uberdude

This is the same output from clpeak as Vargo's, so you might also try downloading the new version ...

@Uberdude,Vargo

I forgot to say that you should uninstall the old "BadukAI" app before installing the new version.

Would it be possible to release a version with the 15b katago net, or even the 10b one?

[go4thewin]

@akigo I adjusted the private file with winrar (using zip?) to use the 10b katago (kg.bin.gz)
private.mp3:

but i can't sign it. Maybe some time in the future when you are not too busy, can you sign and upload? Thanks so much!!!

[Vargo]

@akigo : I uninstalled and then downloaded the new version. It's still the same, (the message "KG is dead/crashed" comes instantly)

But even without KG, it's a great app.

@Vargo,go4thewin,Uberdude

Obviously OpenCL is somewhat different on each device type and I can't analyse all these cases since I have only one device here at my disposal. Therefore I checked again with the latest cpu version of katago and lightvector seems to have done a lot here recently since it has become much faster. So it's usable now and I decided to switch to the cpu version in BadukAI. Please download the APK again (version 0.3 now) and check if katago is working for you now.

@go4thewin

From your admirable work to patch the APK I understand that the need for a 10 blocks network is really urgent, so I have included both the 10b and the 20b network in the new version and added a switch in the settings to choose one of them.

[go4thewin]

Thanks so much! Works great on all my devices!

edit: 32 bit version even works on old chromebook, wow!

katago now works on windows, mac, linux, android, chromebook, ios and ogs, what wonderful work by these programmers

[Vargo]

It works with my tablet and with my phone
Thanks

[Uberdude]

KataGo works on phone now, thanks.

Hi,
Thank you for this app ! It is the first time that I can use a go AI since Leela 11 (other softwares won't run in Linux Mint Debian since Leela 11).

Is it normal that KG runs faster than LZ ? If I understand properly, KG runs in CPU mode while LZ runs in GPU mode. But I get around 20 visits/s with KG and around 10 visits/s with LZ on a Samsung Galaxy S7 smartphone.

@Pio2001

KataGo will always run on CPU, LeelaZero will use the Neural Processing Unit (called DSP) on Qualcomm devices and use the CPU (with some optimizations) on other chipsets. As the LZ 15b model is much bigger than the KG 10b model (and also a lot stronger), the number of playouts, that you observed, seems plausible.

[Vargo]

Same test (H3, komi 7.5, Exynos 990)

W: BadukAI 0.3 (KG 20b, 5sec/move)
v
B: CrazyStone Deep Learning 5d

KG 20b and LZ 40b both win at H3, I'll try at H4
