[Android] Crashes right before game starts

[tasnimtamim]

Describe the crash:
Launching the game will show a blue-black tinted screen for few seconds and then goes to black screen to what I assume the game starting to launch and then it immediately crashes.

Please build from master and debug the issue and/or provide actual osu! logs. System-wide ones are not helpful in this case.

This issue is similar to #4235, because that issue has the same root cause (old OpenGL version) but on the desktop version

@peppy Sorry for very late response, just got the notification. I don't have access to a PC so can't build. How can I retrieve osu! logs if it crashes right away? I have tried searching every path on sdcard and there's none. It doesn't even creates a folder onto sdcard/Android/data which one of my other phone did. I tried searching log files on /data/data/ppy.osu.lazer and /data/app/ppy.osu.lazer-1 too and there's none.

@iiSalman The OP didn't type the correct GPU name

I believe that Android version of Lazer doesn't store logs as of yet. https://imgur.com/a/FNkCoPa

This is the GPU/Spec info I got from a website:
Chipset:Mediatek MT6580M
CPU #1 freq.:1300.0 MHz (4-core)
GPU Type:ARM Mali-400

EDIT:
This is what I see in data file: https://i.imgur.com/vno30RH.jpg

Please edit your issue with the correct GPU name

@TheComputerGuy96 Just noted, thanks for your correction.

GPU Type:ARM Mali-400

seems that ARM Mali-400 supports up to OpenGL 2, that's why it crashes, OpenGL 2 is not supported at all.

Last time I checked on my Linux PC (8 months ago), Lazer was able to launch on my OpenGL 2.1 GPU. Didn't knew it was changed. Thanks for the info.

Some more observations:
If I change ES3 to ES2 in https://github.com/ppy/osu-framework/blob/master/osu.Framework.Android/AndroidGameView.cs#L47, the game loads and I can hear audio and press the buttons of the osu!lazer interface, but the screen is black (with a few exceptions): https://imgur.com/a/HDCWwvb

@swoolcock Why have you disliked my comment? 🌚

[swoolcock]

Because I very much doubt it is related to the ticket you linked.

[TheComputerGuy96]

@swoolcock But both issues are OpenGL version-related

[swoolcock]

OpenGL is not the same as OpenGL ES, so you can’t make broad assumptions of version conflicts.
