Yes, and I found one book:
http://www.amazon.com/OpenGL-ES-2-0-Programming-Guide/dp/0321502795
But it's expensive and I can't find it in Czech Republic, what the... Also some other books, but for iPhone:
http://www.amazon.com/iPhone-Apps-Blender-SIO2-Open-Source/dp/0470574925/ref=pd_sim_b_7
http://www.amazon.com/iPhone-Progra...plications/dp/0596804822/ref=pd_bxgy_b_text_b
http://www.amazon.com/Beginning-iPhone-Games-Development-Cabrera/dp/1430225998/ref=pd_bxgy_b_text_c
http://www.amazon.com/iPhone-Game-Programming-All-One/dp/1435454782/ref=pd_sim_b_5
So if you find those as ebok, tell me
Oh wait there is one in Czech Republic, great!

and they make e-previews! Even better.

The answer is easy:
No, I don't have money and I can't buy any of these books, the material on the internet is either outdated or misleading, and since I have no material to work with...
We wait for Nexus S to be released, when it's released the AOSP(source code) will be out, and then I/we can work on this.
But something I have found is that it's really easy to convert glES2.0 to glES1.1 - and that would be a huge performance boost in games like asphalt or brothers in arms 2. Though I think forbidding to render transparent textures would be more effective and easier to do.
edit:
oh yeah the AOSP is out! But I don't have enough HDD space to compile it =/

That must be a big source code!Or a small HDD!
Anyway,we can all thank you for your effort pal!If someone could pick it up now that Gingerbread's out it would be cool!
My effort? I've done nothing storm is the guy who compiled few kernels.
And yes, the small is the HDD. The source is 2gb(kinda big taking the fact it compiles into what, 60 megs? and oxygen is even smaller lol), and they say you need 6gb free to compile it. Counting I don't have any prequisities(except python and an old version of eclipse) on my pc installed, and I have 6,33gb free... no I will not risk it again. The last time I had 10 megs free xp didn't start.

Hi, I have found a strange thing...
If I replace my file \system\lib\egl\libGLESv1_CM_andreno200.so on HTC Desire with same file from HTC Desire HD.... Qudrant shows 35fps on 2D test (with original only 18), but 3D isn't work at all...

2Over at PROJ: Overclocking the Adreno GPU on Snapdragon Devices they were trying to achieve to overclock the GPU to improve performance.
I've decided to open this thread for dedication for software porting/improving for adreno GPU on all Snapdragon chips.
1st thing we require/need to start work is:
- Any source for the adreno/gpu drivers that are currently being run on our devices.
Its been mentioned that Acer liquid has same gpu running on lower cpu clock and achieving greater results. - Open source 3D driver for Snapdragon @ CodeAurora | Site Source
- Acer liquid GPU drivers and source
- Require Acer Liquid dump of adreno libegl files
- Acer Liquid Kernel Source | Source site
AdamG working on this repo
http://github.com/xdabravoteam/cm-kernel
(May or may not be helpful)
- glbenchmark: Acer liquid | Nexus One = Desire | EVO4G | Incredible
From there we should be able to improve our drivers from other devices but i think its a good start to look at the Acer Liquid since the source is available iirc.
That should be what we need for a start.
If i'm missing anything please let me know and i'll add it.
For reference to the other threads i posted.
Desire Porting thread | EVO4G porting thread | Incredible porting Thread
Hopefully we can get this project going and improve our GPU performance.1
Y'know, although texture resolution changes would be cool, wouldn't it be more universal and effective if we tried to change how a game rendered itself? On PCs, I know this is driver level stuff and we don't have much driver level control, but say we mapped, in pseudocode of course, RenderWithoutAA to RenderWithAA and force antialiasing on games.1
