User-mode driver binaries for Qualcomm’s Adreno 3xx GPU on Nexus 4, 5 & 7 devices running Google Android 4.4.2 KitKat

Updated 17 Apr 14

This release contains a developer preview of the user-mode driver binaries for Qualcomm’s Adreno 3xx GPU on Nexus 4, Nexus 5, and Nexus 7 devices running Google Android 4.4.2 KitKat. It has been tested with the KOT49H factory image. This release is intended only for developers, and does not meet our customer release quality. Refer to the included release notes for a list of fixes and enhancements.

I recommend to backup system partition before flashing.

After successful flashing OpenGL ES 3.0 should have raised from V@53.0 to V@66 and the number of extensions from 43 to 46 (on Nexus 4 at least).

Besides what's mentioned in the release notes below it fixes many WebGL demos.
