I setup up the hellomap example and am getting the following errors

Solution 1:

Viewing the logcat output, I found the full (native) crash dump:

Inspecting the HERE .aar, I found that there were no GLES 2.0 shaders present at all, so I proceeded under the assumption I would need to get the Android Virtual Device to run under GLES 3.0 mode for the HERE SDK to work.

I'm on an Intel NUC that I know supports OpenGL ES 3.2, so didn't make sense that the AVD wasn't using 3.0.

Apparently, you need to forcibly enable OpenGL ES 3.2 for some graphics cards, per the answer from this question:

echo "GLESDynamicVersion = on" >> ~/.android/advancedFeatures.ini

I restarted Android Studio and the AVD (which cold booted, indicating it noticed the configuration change) and the crash went away.
