Same here!!

Same here and it leads to a permanent freeze of the game! only happens on Vulcan, not GLES3 and seems to only happen on Mali GPUs

Go to Player Settings===>Other Settings and make it like this:

Same “gralloc4” errors here when testing a dev build on Google Pixel 4 (Android 13) and 7 (Android 14). It’s a 2D game using URP on Unity Editor 2022.3.8f1.

Although w/ @Sparkline_1 method these errors disappear, does it mean OpenGLES3 is used over Vulkan? If yes it feels like a step back…

Any update on this issue?
