Google adapter > 21.0.0.2 breaks hardware acceleration in webview

[mizunokazumi]

This google-adapter update seems to break hardware acceleration in webview on android.

Cordova + phaser project shows low FPS on startup. After window.location.reload() everything is fixed until the next restart of the application.

If you roll back the implementation 'com.applovin.mediation:google-adapter:21.0.0.2' library, then the problem disappears.

The bug is reproducible from this commit
773730b5f28610b6b09ecfa3a6a39b126c25a9e7

@mizunokazumi - were you able to repro this on v21.0.0.2 as well?

[mizunokazumi]

sorry for the late reply

In 21.0.0.2, the bug is not reproduced even if other mediators are connected

dependencies {
    implementation 'com.applovin:applovin-sdk:+'
    implementation 'com.applovin.mediation:fyber-adapter:+'
    implementation 'com.applovin.mediation:google-adapter:21.0.0.2'
    implementation 'com.applovin.mediation:ironsource-adapter:+'
    implementation 'com.applovin.mediation:facebook-adapter:+'
    implementation 'com.applovin.mediation:mintegral-adapter:+'
    implementation 'androidx.recyclerview:recyclerview:1.1.0'
    implementation 'com.applovin.mediation:unityads-adapter:+'
}

But if you enable test mode, then the bug will be reproduced in the presence of any mediation. After returning from meditation debugger, or after watching ads

I sketched a test application where this can be reproduced

You just need to substitute any valid SDK_KEY
https://github.com/mizunokazumi/cordova-phaser-solitaire/blob/main/src/js/ads.js#L1

npm i
cordova platform add android
cordova build android
adb install ./platforms/android/app/build/outputs/apk/debug/app-debug.apk

run
enable test mode
restart
