Android agent progress: 2.2 GiB swap memory bug fixed, but long workflows still fail
HowDevelop · x · 2026-09-07
Updating his Gemma 4 E2B + Qualcomm QMX on-device Android agent work, HowDevelop verified the QMX kernels are running and fixed a memory bug that caused 2.2 GiB of swap. Short tasks now work, but longer workflows still slow down or fail. Useful fixes along the way, but the central question—the 2.6 tok/s live vs 11 tok/s replay gap—remains unanswered.
