I have an app that I'm working on that uses openGL ES 2.0 on an android device. The app contains some buttons that are displayed using programmatic layout controls. This button pad is superimposed on a OpenGl Surface View. When I run the app on the tablet the buttons appear but the Surface View is grey, the color of the background for the 3d model I've created. This leads me to believe there's something wrong with my shaders. I use many uniform vec2's in my fragment shader. I'm looking at this web site:
http://www.shaderific.com/glsl-variables/
and it says there's a built in function that you can use to tell how many uniform vectors your implementations of GL uses. How do I run this code in android?
gl_MaxFragmentUniformVectors
I print out the contents of GLES20.GL_MAX_FRAGMENT_UNIFORM_VECTORS and I get the number 36349. My shader uses about 20.
If that doesn't lead to anything, this is the basic error. The app works on a Motorola Bionic, Android 4.1.2, but doesn't work on a Samsung Galaxy Tab/Pro, Android 4.4.2! Of course I would like it to work on both.

An update solved the problem. My Samsung device works now!
