I only got a bunch of WUs for one of my Android phones a few months ago. Since then, no new WU. Did they just abandon Android or is there any problem with my phone?

look at Computing -> server status https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/server_status.php . you will see that SixTrack - Unsent 0. Sixtrack are the sub Project that has android WUs but sixtrack has in the last month not a stable and steady output of WUs so it is usually that the WUs are fast gone. So it is even hard for x86 PCs to get enough sixtrack WUs. It is better to have 2 Projects and compute sixtrack when you can grab some WUs.
Not sure if they are producing Android WUs right now when the other platforms have not enough work to do. And looking here https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/apps.php 1GigaFlops is usually no work or really low number of user.

And you did test with 1 ARMv7 android phones. Guess they only have 64bit android support when i look at the Application page.
