Native Activity, GLES2.0: Uploading pixel array to screen

Question

I created a pixmap using, for example, this code

//...
// Native Activity

#define HEIGHT 600
#define WIDTH 600
uint32_t texDat[WIDTH*HEIGHT*4];
static double it = 0;
uint8_t color = sin(it)*256;

for (int i = 0; i < WIDTH; i++) for (int j = 0; j < HEIGHT; j++)
texDat [ i + j*WIDTH ] = (i << 16)  | (j << 8) | (color<< 0);
it+=0.01;
if(it >= M_PI) it = 0;

On my Linux pc this pixmap can be shown with glDrawPixels or with glTexImage2D. But I can't find glDrawPixels or something same on Android GLES. I tried to copy image to screen with this

ANativeWindow_Buffer pbuffer;
if (ANativeWindow_lock(engine->app->window, &pbuffer, NULL) == 0) {
    memcpy(pbuffer.bits, texDat,  WIDTH*HEIGHT);
    ANativeWindow_unlockAndPost(engine->app->window);
}

But it fails even if copying size is set to 1. How can I upload pixmap to screen?

Thanks.

GLES shader-based solution. Based on Android test
