Answer 1

This code working Fine..

     // Check if the system supports OpenGL ES 2.0.
final ActivityManager activityManager = ActivityManager)getSystemService(Context.ACTIVITY_SERVICE);
    final ConfigurationInfo configurationInfo = activityManager
            .getDeviceConfigurationInfo();
    final boolean supportsEs2 = configurationInfo.reqGlEsVersion >= 0x20000;

    if (supportsEs2) {
        Log.i("JO", "configurationInfo.reqGlEsVersion:"
                + configurationInfo.reqGlEsVersion + "supportsEs2:"
                + supportsEs2);
        // Request an OpenGL ES 2.0 compatible context.
        myGlsurfaceView.setEGLContextClientVersion(2);

        final DisplayMetrics displayMetrics = new DisplayMetrics();
        getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getMetrics(displayMetrics);

        // Set the renderer to our demo renderer, defined below.
        myRenderer = new MyRenderer(this, myGlsurfaceView);
            } else {
        // This is where you could create an OpenGL ES 1.x compatible
        // renderer if you wanted to support both ES 1 and ES 2.
        return;
    }
