We did a proof on concept (we actually have implemented it) before asking this question. You can actually remove the calls to GLSurfaceView.onPause and GLSurfaceView.onResume entirely and most of the time it will work. Leaving these calls out will fail only after *excessive *rotations/configuration-changes on *some *phones and tablets.
Since it failed on some phones we own ourselves, we were able to notice the problem of leaving out these calls entirely. Then we put the GLSurfaceView.onPause/onResume in the onStop/onStart of the Activity and it seems to have fixed the issue. We haven't been able to reproduce the problem on the phones we own. I'm asking this question, because we do something that is not recommended but seems to work anyway, and we're wondering if we risk the chance to run into problems in some scenarios that we haven't thought about or on some (types of) phones/devices that we don't own. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
