I have the first kindle fire and the client doesn't work. It doesn't seem to communicate with the server. Never computes.

So little information. Too little.
So please, pass by on When requesting help on these forums to find what we may require as basic minimum information.

In this case:
- An explanation of what 'the first kindle fire' is, would be nice.(*)
- which version of Android it runs. I am assuming it does, doesn't it? (*)
- the client doesn't work. Event log? Client version number? Gotten BOINC from where?
- not communicate with the server. Server from where? Which project did you add?
- never computes. Because of why not? Event Log? Preferences settings?

(*) E.g. I am not expecting that you know what the acronym FCPGA stands for. But if I were to go use it in an explanation here, I would tell that it stands for Flip Chip Pin Grid Array, and that that is a type of processor where the side that heats up is pointed away from the motherboard. So always give an explanation on what your device is/does. We don't all know what is all out there in the world. And we certainly don't have to go look it up on the internet.
