ok after some tests i have to report hagtorp about his compile 31/12/19 ARM8 64bit:

android 9: cpu mediatek g90t(new) 2xa76+6xa55 all at 2.0ghz, 6g ram 128gb internal mem.(redmi note 8 pro)

both static and dynamic builds work perfect! initial speed at 5230 kn/sec without heat throttling for 15 mins! no bugs no time loss.
the only issue comes from droidfish 1.77 who doesnt supports up to 512mb hash smile47

Send email to Peter O., with request to add more mb hash support. I also changed my smartphone (finally, after 3 years sarcastic_hand ), to Xiaomi Mi A1 = (android 1), 4GB RAM, 64GB storage, 8x snapdragon 625 at 2 GhZ.. Cheap beast! :music2:

Droidfish supports hash of 1 and 2 or more gigabytes. You need to put a special file in the uci folder, it unlocks a large hash. I forgot only what it's called. Google will help.

Create an empty file in a text editor. Rename it to
.unsafehash and put in the uci folder in the droidfish directory. Restart the application: the hash is unlocked.

Everything works. Have you forgotten to put an end to the file name unsafehash? The name of the empty text file should look like this: .unsafehash

I hope the moderator will transfer all our correspondence to the Droidfish topic. And then we litter the cfish branch.
