Question

I’m testing my app on HTC Wildfire running Android 2.2.1. I suppose it should support atleast OpenGL 1.1 but in fact when I’m calling

glGetString(GL_VERSION);

I’m getting this:

OpenGL ES-CM 1.0

Is there any way to create OpenGL 1.1 context and not 1.0 ?

Answer 1

Unfortunately, HTC Wildfire doesn’t have GPU.

• http://developer.qualcomm.com/device/htc-wildfire

  CPU:Qualcomm MSM 7225

  Graphical Processor Unit (GPU): No GPU

• GL info for HTC Wildfire

  OpenGL Version – OpenGL ES-CM 1.0

  OpenGL Vendor – Android

  OpenGL Renderer – Android PixelFlinger 1.3

It is the software implementation of OpenGL ES 1.0 from Google Android. It is not OpenGL ES 1.1 implementation even though it supports OpenGL ES 1.1 API and extensions partially.
