Android OpenGL demo "No config chosen"

I'm having a real problem with the Google's OpenGL demo for Android. I set it up in Eclipse but can't get it to execute. It builds with no problems, but then stops at "java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: No config chosen" right before it opens. I've been up and down Google searches and Stack threads with no solution.

I did find what I thought was a lead here: OpenGL ES 2.0 Support for Android?

It uses a command gLSurfaceView.setEGLConfigChooser(8 , 8, 8, 8, 16, 0); but alas, I'm new to OpenGL on android and don't know where to put it...

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm running Eclipse Juno with the latest android sdk. I'm testing this on a 4.2 Jelly Bean emulator with GPU hardware enabled.

The solution was just to place super.setEGLConfigChooser(8 , 8, 8, 8, 16, 0); inside the MyGLSurfaceView class right before the setRenderer(new MyGLRenderer()); line.
