triangle opengl in android

Question

I am new to the opengl so i am using guide of the android developer.I have done all thing that they says but it is showing an error to force to close.

In my log cat file it is showing the following error

03-30 20:13:14.342: E/AndroidRuntime(317): FATAL EXCEPTION: GLThread 8

Answer 1

This problem occur due to the reason that 3d image is not supported by any android virtual device.If any one want to run the 3d image then he or she should be used any physical device .

Answer 2

The reason you are getting this error is because the device you are testing on doesn't support OpenGL ES 2.0. You're probably testing this on the emulator, which doesn't support that version of OpenGL.

Just try testing it on a real device and you'll see it will work fine.
