android: device pixels, rotation, background and resume, Back, touches between frames - #182
These are the Android pieces a full app needs to behave as it does on iOS: rotation, going to the background, the Back button and quick taps. Tested with the web3d chess game on @bloomengine/web, running on a Pixel 4a (Android 13, Vulkan).
Everything is opt-in from the Activity. An app that doesn't call the new entry points, such as Bloom Jump, keeps its current half-size layout.
The game sees the surface's pixel size; getDisplayScale() is the density; the safe area is the camera cutout (as on iOS)
nativeOnResize(w, h)
Rotation: the game thread resizes at the start of its next frame
nativeSurfaceLost()
Background: waits (up to 2 s) until the game thread has dropped its wgpu surface, then releases the window. The game renders headless and the audio stream pauses
nativeSetSurface (again)
Resume: a new surface from the same wgpu instance; the audio resumes
nativeOnBack(): Boolean
Escape for one frame, or false where setMenuButtonExits says Menu would leave the app, so the Activity hands Back to the system
Touches. They used to be written into the input state from the UI thread while the game thread was mid-frame. A quick tap, down and up within one frame, could be released before the game read it: only about the first tap in a session registered. Touches are now queued and applied after end_frame, which is where iOS touches arrive, between frames.
Tested on the device. Taps (including adb shell input tap), a game played against the engine, rotation to landscape, Home and back (audio paused and resumed, same process), Back as pause in a game and as exit on the title screen. The app's Activity and Gradle project are in skelpo/chess (web3d/bloom/android). It goes with the @bloomengine/web PR that reads BLOOM_ASSET_PATH and calls setMenuButtonExits on Android.
Summary by CodeRabbit
New Features
Android games adapt displayed dimensions and touch-coordinate scaling to available display metrics; without metrics, dimensions and touch input use half the physical surface size.
Touch input is applied between frames, and cancelling touch input releases active touches.
Pressing Back can trigger Escape when menu-exit behavior is not enabled; otherwise, Android handles Back.
Bug Fixes
Audio mixing pauses in the background, and audio playback retries starting or pausing while the game runs.
Rendering pauses when the display surface is lost and resumes after a replacement surface is available.
…s between frames
What a full app (the web3d chess game on @bloomengine/web) needs on Android
to behave as on iOS. All of it is opt-in from the Activity, so an app that
doesn't call the new entry points (Bloom Jump) keeps its half-size layout.
- Device pixels: `nativeSetDisplayMetrics(density, insets)` switches the
game to the surface's pixel size, with getDisplayScale() the display
density and the safe area the camera cutout, as on iOS.
- Rotation: `nativeOnResize` hands the new surface size to the game
thread, which resizes at the start of its next frame.
- Background: `nativeSurfaceLost` waits until the game thread has dropped
its wgpu surface before the window is released; the game renders
headless and its audio pauses until `nativeSetSurface` brings a new
window, made into a surface from the same wgpu instance.
- Back: `nativeOnBack` presses Escape for a frame, or returns false where
the app says the Menu button would leave (setMenuButtonExits), so the
Activity hands it to the system.
- Touches: the UI thread queues them and the game thread applies them
after end_frame, where iOS's touches land. They were written into the
input state while the game thread was mid-frame, so a quick tap (down
and up within one frame) could be released before the game read it.
Android now synchronizes display sizing, queued input, surface lifecycle, resize requests, and audio pause state with the game thread. Native callbacks provide display metrics, surface events, resize dimensions, and Back input. Android also routes stdout and stderr to logcat.
Changes: Android runtime synchronization
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Display dimensions and runtime state native/android/src/lib.rs
Shared state tracks display metrics and runtime dimensions. Logical dimensions use physical pixels when display metrics are reported and half-size dimensions otherwise. Initialization selects the lifecycle-managed window and stores renderer state.
Queued input and Android callbacks native/android/src/lib.rs
Touch events are queued and applied on the game thread with coordinates scaled by display mode. JNI callbacks provide surface events, positive resize dimensions, display metrics, and Back input. Back queues Escape when the engine is ready and menu behavior does not handle Back.
Surface lifecycle and audio synchronization native/android/src/lib.rs
Frame synchronization handles close requests, surface loss and replacement, and pending resizes. It drops or recreates the renderer surface. Audio mixing and the audio stream pause while audio is paused; stream transitions are retried.
Standard output and error routing native/android/src/lib.rs
JNI initialization routes stdout and stderr through pipes and reader threads to logcat, using separate priorities.

Merge Risk: Moderate · up to a264a
Resolve the Android presentation and lifecycle issues before merging: legacy applications can lose visible rendering, surface teardown can block the UI or continue after destruction, and replacement Activities can immediately exit. Logging also has a reachable failure path that can eventually block output.

Explanation
The title names several Android changes (device pixels, rotation, background and resume, Back, touches between frames), and each one appears in the raw summary and the PR description. It is a list of topics rather than one main change, but every part is real and present in the changeset, so the title is at least partially related and does not mislead.
Full details: Description check
Explanation
The description follows the template's main sections. It has a Summary that explains the changes and the reason for them, and it includes a test plan. The test plan describes device testing on a Pixel 4a with the chess game, but it does not tick the template checkboxes. It does not confirm that ./scripts/ci-check.sh passes, does not name a second platform, does not say whether visual regression was checked in a named example, and does not say whether docs were updated for the new JNI entry points. The Notes for reviewers section is missing. Most required information is present, so the check passes, but the author should complete the checklist and add reviewer notes.

Review comments at @native/android/src/lib.rs:
- Around line 962-964: Update nativeSetSurface so installing a replacement
window does not clear a pending surface-loss signal before the game thread
handles it. Preserve the loss state across replacement until the game thread
processes it, while retaining the existing window update and notification
behavior.
- Around line 713-715: The loop updates `paused` before knowing whether
`s.start()` succeeds, preventing future resume attempts after a failure. Update
the `s.start()` handling so a failed resume does not leave the stream marked as
active, and retry or recreate the stream while preserving the renderer; retain
the existing pause behavior.
- Around line 542-544: Update the release handling in the match arm for state 2
so clearing BACK_STATE does not erase a concurrent press recorded by
nativeOnBack. Clear the state only if it is still 2, using an atomic conditional
update; preserve the Escape key-up injection.
- Around line 511-514: Update the touch-action condition so action 6,
representing a secondary-pointer release, follows the release path alongside
actions 1 and 3. Preserve the existing set_touch behavior for other actions.
- Around line 980-996: Update the surface-loss handling around ENGINE_READY and
LIFE_CHANGED so initialization and rendering cannot continue using the surface
after it is destroyed. Do not return or release NATIVE_WINDOW until the game
thread has stopped using the surface; replace the deadline-based escape with
coordination that guarantees this, including when loss occurs during
initialization.
- Around line 511-519: Update the Android touch handling around the `action`
checks so `ACTION_CANCEL` clears the emulated mouse button and releases every
active touch, rather than releasing only `pointer_index`. Use the existing input
APIs or established clear-state mechanism, preserving the current single-pointer
release behavior for `ACTION_UP`.
- Line 592: Update the restoration logic around PENDING_SIZE so clearing the
consumed resize state cannot erase a notification published concurrently by
nativeOnResize. Atomically claim or conditionally clear only the value used for
restoration, leaving any newer notification pending for rendering and
screen-size queries; do not replay the stale dimensions.
- Around line 560-564: The surface-loss wait reads eng.should_close without
synchronization while nativeOnDestroy writes it. Update the shutdown-state
access used by nativeOnDestroy and this wait to use the same synchronization
mechanism, preserving the timed wait while ensuring destruction reliably wakes
or releases the game thread.
- Line 594: Update the resume path handling `create_surface` failure so the game
does not continue with `renderer.surface` unset; ensure restoration is retried
or the game remains paused until a rendering surface is available. Preserve the
existing error logging and avoid allowing frame callbacks to run without a
presentable surface.

Preserve the pending surface loss until the game thread handles it.
If nativeSurfaceLost times out and a replacement arrives before the next frame, nativeSetSurface clears the loss flag. The renderer can then continue using the destroyed surface, leaving the resumed game blank or producing surface errors.

@proggeramlug Thanks. The comparison handles replacements with different window pointers.
There is still a same-pointer case: Android 13 can reuse a surface, and ANativeWindow_fromSurface returns its native window pointer. If the replacement has the same pointer, nativeSetSurface clears lost and life.window == life.in_use, so the game thread does not recreate the wgpu surface.
Could you track the surface generation or keep a separate pending-loss flag? Please also test a timeout followed by a same-pointer replacement.
If you found this review helpful, would you consider giving us a shout-out on X?
If surface loss occurs during initialization or a frame exceeds the deadline, the game thread can continue using the destroyed surface and may crash. Coordinate initialization and rendering with surface loss, and wait for them to stop using the surface before returning.

Fixed in a264a61: each window reference has one owner. The game thread releases the window it rendered into when it drops the surface; nativeSurfaceLost only releases a window the game never took. A slow game thread (including during init) keeps its reference, so the window can't go away under a frame.

Length of output: 11702
@proggeramlug Thanks for clarifying the ownership change. Keeping the ANativeWindow reference prevents its release while the game thread uses it, but it does not guarantee that the underlying Surface remains usable.
The original concern remains:
During initialization, nativeSurfaceLost can return before ENGINE_READY is set, while initialization can still configure the surface.
During a slow frame, it can return after the two-second deadline while the game thread still uses the surface.
Android’s surfaceDestroyed contract requires the rendering thread to stop touching the surface before the callback returns. Please coordinate surface loss with both initialization and rendering so they stop before that return.
If you found this review helpful, would you consider giving us a shout-out on X?
An app process's stdout and stderr go to /dev/null on Android, so a game's
console.log / console.error, and a Perry runtime error's report, were lost.
JNI_OnLoad now points both at a pipe whose lines a thread writes to logcat.

- The game thread owns the ANativeWindow it renders into and releases it when
it drops the surface; nativeSurfaceLost releases only a window the game
never took. A slow game thread can no longer render into a released
window, and a new surface arriving before the game handled the loss is
picked up (the game compares its window with the newest one).
- nativeOnDestroy sets an atomic the game thread reads, instead of writing
EngineState from the UI thread.
- A failed surface creation renders offscreen and retries next frame.
- Sizes reported while the restored window is measured are kept.
- Touches: POINTER_UP (6) releases its finger; CANCEL (3) releases every
finger and mouse button 0.
- Back: the release clears the state only if no new press came in.
- Audio: a failed start or pause is retried.

Unverified finding
We couldn't verify this from the code. It is shown for review, not as a verified issue.
The new indexed release handling uses pointer_index directly as a persistent touch slot. If the bridge supplies MotionEvent pointer indices rather than stable pointer IDs, index compaction after a finger lifts can release the wrong slot and leave a phantom touch.
Slot 1 can remain active indefinitely while the surviving finger's updates are applied to slot 0.
This can occur when: Two fingers occupy indices 0 and 1; index 0 lifts, and the remaining finger subsequently moves and lifts using its new index 0.

Keep GPU teardown outside the lifecycle lock.
If Vulkan takes too long to become idle during surface teardown, nativeSurfaceLost can block the UI thread despite its two-second timeout. This can cause an ANR. Move blocking GPU work outside LIFE while preserving window ownership and teardown signaling.

These are the Android pieces a full app needs to behave as it does on iOS: rotation, going to the background, the Back button and quick taps. Tested with the web3d chess game on @bloomengine/web, running on a Pixel 4a (Android 13, Vulkan).
Everything is opt-in from the Activity. An app that doesn't call the new entry points, such as Bloom Jump, keeps its current half-size layout.
nativeSetDisplayMetrics(density, top, right, bottom, left)getDisplayScale()is the density; the safe area is the camera cutout (as on iOS)nativeOnResize(w, h)nativeSurfaceLost()nativeSetSurface(again)nativeOnBack(): BooleanfalsewheresetMenuButtonExitssays Menu would leave the app, so the Activity hands Back to the systemTouches. They used to be written into the input state from the UI thread while the game thread was mid-frame. A quick tap, down and up within one frame, could be released before the game read it: only about the first tap in a session registered. Touches are now queued and applied after
end_frame, which is where iOS touches arrive, between frames.Tested on the device. Taps (including
adb shell input tap), a game played against the engine, rotation to landscape, Home and back (audio paused and resumed, same process), Back as pause in a game and as exit on the title screen. The app's Activity and Gradle project are in skelpo/chess (web3d/bloom/android).
