Tips & Tricks:

• If Termux can't complete update & upgrade please clear app cache and data.
• Disable battery manager, battery optimization for Termux app.
• If you long press anywhere within Termux then click More there is an option to Keep screen on.
• Alternatively you can pull down the notification drawer and expand Termux notification to Acquire wakelock this will enable you to mine with the screen off (NOTE! not all devices obey this rule is a hit or miss)
• Use a pool with low latency to your location/internet.
• Give the miner/stratum time to stabilize hashrate(~30m-1h).
