Developer Notes

This device doesn't support floating point textures or framebuffer fetch so we cannot support bloom.

Description

As the title suggests, bloom on the Samsung Galaxy S5 is not working.

I tested this against another android device, the Acer Iconia Tab 8, which also supports Full HDR w/Sun according to the documentation, and bloom is working as expected.

I have attached multiple screenshots and a project in 4.9.2 so you can open a copy for quick testing iterations between versions.

I tested this issue in the binary releases of 4.9.2, 4.10.2, and 4.11 Preview 5

After launching on in the preview 5 release, the screen on both devices showed the initial splash screen, and then went to a completely black screen. I will enter another bug for this issue and provide a link in this report.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Download and Open attached project (4.9.2)
2. Launch onto device.
3. Open copy of project in 4.10.2
4. Launch onto device.

Outcome: Bloom is not working on the Samsung Galaxy S5 (SM-G900H)

Expected: The documentation suggests the Full HDR w/Sun works for this device, so bloom is expected to work.
