Question

Bug with Samsung Tab 3 and GPU mode?

Hi,

Today I got a mail from a customer, telling me that all my apps on his Samsung Tab 3 show a blank screen when launched. On his Samsung Tab 2, they work fine. Both devices are running Android 4.1.2.

My apps are using GPU mode, so I suppose the issue is there. I don't own a Samsung Tab 3 to make my own tests, but did you encounter this issue on your side?

Thank you!

Frédéric

Hi, I was having problems with same issue, probably related to international version of the device, because Adobe couldn't reproduce it. But it disappeared at some point, after OS update. Maybe your customer could try that?

Bug#3675769 - renderMode=gpu doesn't render Bitmaps (GalaxyTab 3 7")

We've found exactly this same issue with GPU apps on the Galaxy Tab 3 -- but the issue is ONLY appearing on the international model of the tablet with the model number SM-T210.  The US model of this tablet has a different model number -- SM-T210R -- which works completely fine.  Unfortunately we haven't found any way around this, and Google Play doesn't differentiate between the T210 and T210R to mark just one of them as incompatible.

Hello,

We tried reproducing the issue with a sample application using GPU but it's not reproducible.It would be great if you can share below information

1. Your application name or any any sample application.

2. AIR SDK used.

3. Any other devices where the problem is reproducible.

Regards,

Thank you for your quick replies.

You can try any app here : https://play.google.com/store/apps/developer?id=Indie+Goes+Software

I am not aware of any other device having the same issue yet.

All my apps have been recently recompiled with AIR SDK 13.0.

Cheers,

Frédéric

Hello Frederic,

We tried the app you shared on Samsung tab 3 and Nexus S with 4.1.2 and 4.2 OS but the problem is not reproducible at our end. Is this problem intermittent.

Hi Frederic,

Is this the tab 3 with the x86 architecture?

Hi Chris,

I asked my customer, and it is the 7 inches Tab 3 (so I think this is an ARM model, since only the 10 inches model is based on x86, as far as I know)

Here are some apps from my catalog, he says they all do the same thing : https://play.google.com/store/apps/developer?id=Indie+Goes+Software

Behavior is: the app launches, the background is blank, only the loading progress bar appears till completion, and nothing else happens (the screen remains blank)...

Thank you!

Frédéric
