Android: Samsung Galaxy S2 Sample Browser Issue

[DanielSefton]

On Samsung Galaxy S2 the sample browser doesn't render correctly (see attachment).

Someone linked to this as a potential fix, was it ever committed to the 1.9 branch?

Also, any idea if this was fixed as well:

Thanks!

Yeah just to be clear the problem is RTSS - you can use glsles optimizer which fixes the rendering but can create crashes on other shaders.
The issuse is that this device do not like the generated shaders at all. Hand written shaders are fine.

Ah yeah, I read the posts where you explained that, I didn't know if it was related though.

can create crashes on other shaders

By that I assume you mean various non-RTSS shaders (like Compositor/Cubemapping)... In which case that doesn't matter for me, I don't use any custom shaders, only what is provided by RTSS.

How do I go about using the optimizer? Is there a CMake flag for it?

Thanks!

yes i provided precompiled deps for the optimizer you just need to enable it via a flag

Thanks. Simply adding OGRE_CONFIG_ENABLE_GLES2_GLSL_OPTIMISER=1 worked for me. Runs fine on S2 now.
