For a couple of days I've been scratching my head trying to get some simple OpenGL ES 2.0 code to work on a 4.0.3 or 4.1 AVD with GPU emulation (supposedly) enabled. While the code works on an actual device, none of my searches on the various warnings and error messages revealed why the GPU emulation simply didn't seem to work at all. Finally, I stumbled onto the docs for ARM's OpenGL ES 2.0 emulator SDK. ARM's emulator code works by translating OpenGL SE 2.0 instructions to OpenGL 2.0 before passing them on to the graphics adapter. I'm assuming that the GPU emulation on AVDs work on the same principle. Therefore, I conclude that OpenGL ES 2.0 code will not work on an AVD if the box's graphic card chipset and driver don't support OpenGL 2. Can anyone verify this? If so, it would be nice if the "Using the Android Emulator" doc also mentioned it.
