Games in PIXI producing a black/flickering screen on Huawei device

[davro12345]

've been making a bunch of games using PIXI.js (version 3.0.6). However, none of the games work on my Huawei device (android version 5.0.1). Either the screen is completely black, or the screen flickers black, or the screen flickers black for a bit and then goes completely black.

After doing some searching online, I've found two possible solutions to what looks like the same problem (https://github.com/pixijs/pixi.js/issues/2721).

One solution that has been proposed is to change the shader precision value to mediump. However the attribute PIXI.PRECISION. or PIXI.settings.PRECISION does not seem to be available in the version 3 of PIXI.

The other solution proposed is to ad the following code before creating the renderer:

           PIXI.glCore.VertexArrayObject.FORCE_NATIVE = true;

However, to do this, I need glCore, and after reading some of the documentation (https://github.com/pixijs/pixi-gl-core), it seems like this is built to work with PIXI version 4.

Having said that, I don't even know if these solutions would actually fix the problem.

Anyway, any help would be much appreciated!

You can try update to 3.0.11, may be issue was solved back then.

I have no idea what can be wrong there. @Mat Groves do you know anything about it?

No, the problem still occurs with version 3.0.11, unfortunately.

ok, try to put "antialias: false" or "antialias:true" in the renderer settings. If it doesnt help, try also "preserveDrawingBuffer: true" (its slow as hell, but sometimes works)
