Whenever I run my app on the Genymotion (V2.3) emulator (any Android version), it runs into an infinite loop with this error printing in the logcat continuously:

11-10 04:33:55.542: E/eglCodecCommon(2775): **** ERROR unknown type 0x0 (glSizeof,73)
11-10 04:33:55.902: E/eglCodecCommon(2775): **** ERROR unknown type 0x0 (glSizeof,73)

11-10 04:33:56.750: E/eglCodecCommon(2775): **** ERROR unknown type 0x0 (glSizeof,73)

My App works fine, but I am unable to print anything in logcat or even read anything else in it in case of any exceptions. I have no idea what is this about or what is causing it. I tried to find online without any luck.

UPDATE: I realized that this happens whenever I show banner ads (from Google admob sdk, or Leadbolt sdk) in my Activity.

Any pointers or suggestions?

I think your genymotion emulator doesnot have access to host gpu.Since your page has some graphics Open GL will not work.

You can solve this by adding android:hardwareAccelerated="false" in AndroidManifest.xml
