That would be nice, I wonder if it is possible to do at all... After a quick look at the source code of GLSurfaceView, it seems to me that the double buffering is hard coded into the EglHelper class. > Otherwise you will need to use EGL directly to setup > your OpenGL surface without double buffering.
