No EGLConfig found

Question

I'm trying to make simple Game in android using AndEngine tutorial

Now When I run the project I get the error saying that java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: No EGLConfig found!

TowerOfHanoiActivity.java

public class TowerOfHanoiActivity extends SimpleBaseGameActivity {

    private static int CAMERA_WIDTH = 800;
    private static int CAMERA_HEIGHT = 480;
    private ITextureRegion mBackgroundTextureRegion, mTowerTextureRegion,
            mRing1, mRing2, mRing3;

    @Override
    public EngineOptions onCreateEngineOptions() {

        final Camera camera = new Camera(0, 0, CAMERA_WIDTH, CAMERA_HEIGHT);

        return new EngineOptions(true, ScreenOrientation.LANDSCAPE_FIXED,
                new RatioResolutionPolicy(CAMERA_WIDTH, CAMERA_HEIGHT), camera);
    }

I'm testing my app in emulator with following settings

Please give me a proper solution.Thanks

Answer 1

Create AVD with Target 4.0.3 -API Level 15 with GPU Emulation yes. My example stated running after this. IF you have further problem visit AndEngine Forum and get detail about OpenGL drivers

Answer 2

I had the same problem and this worked for me on Windows 7 64bit. My AVD settings are Device : (800 x 480 hdpi), Target: Android 4.4 API Level 19, CPU/ABI: ARM (armeabi-v7a).

1. I changed the Memory Options to 512 VM Heap 32
2. then the Emulation Options and Checked "Use Host GPU."
3. Click OK, refresh, clean project, restart Eclipse.
4. Run Configurations -> Android -> Project -> Run
