Can i run this mod in pojavlauncher?
If no, how do I?

More than likely not. Also, you REALLY shouldn't. Just stick with GL4ES.
If you really want to try, I can't stop you, but we won't be providing support considering Pojav (and AngelAura) are extremely niche. You don't see your friends playing on MCJE on their phones, you see them playing bedrock edition.

Don't make the dev have to create a killswitch like Sodium did because you guys kept asking for support when we clearly stated we wouldn't.

On another note, it does appear to be working with the Mali G610 (Rockchip RK3588S) on BredOS. Render distance was 9 chunks, average FPS was 27, with Lithium being used, and resolution was 2560x1600 (though RenderScale was used to bring it down to 0.45x that)

I think some phones actually use that GPU.. though I'm certain the big two don't (apple for obvious reasons, and samsung has their own GPUs now) so chances are it won't work for you. Plus, that was on Panthor, which is not on android afaik

Reran testing after seeing significant performance bumps on GNOME versus KDE.

Device Info
Hardware
Fydetab Duo
SOC: Rockchip RK3588S
CPU: 4x ARM Cortex A76, 4x ARM Cortex A55
GPU: ARM Mali G610
Cooling: Thermally joined with aluminum backing
RAM: Samsung K4UBE3D4AA-MGCL (LPDDR4X)

Software
OS: BredOS (Arch Derivative)
GL Driver: Panthor on MESA 25.2.0, released 06-08-2025 (DD-MM-YYYY), exposing GLES 3.1, GL 3.1, EGL 1.5, GLSL 1.4, GLSL-ES 3.00
Vulkan Driver: Panfrost on MESA 25.2.0, exposing Vulkan 1.4.318, but unable to use Zink (OpenGL-over-Vulkan) due to missing features "feats.features.fillModeNonSolid" and "feats.features.shaderClipDistance"

MCJE Info
Resolution: 2560x1455
Render scaling: 0.45x
Allocated RAM: 4096 MB
Render Distance: 9 chunks
Simulation Distance: 5 chunks

On Fast Graphics: 25 FPS
On Fancy Graphics: 20 FPS
On Fabulous Graphics: 11 FPS, with major graphical corruption. This is likely due to missing GLSL features; if Zink were to have been used, this likely wouldn't happen, but at the cost of some performance.

Will compile ANGLE and test with that soon.

Just stick with GL4ES.

Nobody uses gl4es to run newer MC versions, light wrappers like LTW exist and even Sodium there works fine (given your vendor driver isn't complete broken mess). They work similar to this mod as Core Profile GL maps to ES quite easily.

are extremely niche

1M+ downloads on GP not adding its forks is far from niche.

You don't see your friends playing on MCJE

Extremely stupid argument. If I want to run MCJE on the device I own - I will, I won't care about normies playing on bugrock.

Don't make the dev have to create a killswitch like Sodium did because you guys kept asking for support when we clearly stated we wouldn't.

OP asked does this mod work on mobile JE launchers cause it can be useful for Android/iOS - use supported GLES instead of desktop GL not present on mobiles. I don't see a support request, just a simple question.

[whitebelyash]

To the question itself: the mod doesn't work on PojavLauncher:

03:46:12] [Render thread/INFO]: Backend library: LWJGL version 3.3.3-snapshot
GLFW: Unimplemented API 0x30002

Probably caused by glfw-stub not supporting some requested feature/flag in WindowMixin. Shouldn't be a mod problem, however. I'll try stubbing this on the launcher side.

[whitebelyash]

I've implemented pure ES context in the launcher, but there's another problem:

OpenGL and OpenGL ES aren't really compatible in texture formats - some drivers (i.e. Mesa, AMD) share format support thus the mod works fine (except error spam), but some others like NVIDIA and ARM (Mali) do not. This means the game will crash here with GL_FRAMEBUFFER_INCOMPLETE_ATTACHMENT as the texture format used for color attachment is unsupported on those drivers.

Converting texture formats is enough to run the game on the Mali G57 MC2 device:

I've disabled the depth framebuffer attachment here so the game is slightly glitched.

Though, this can be also a 1.21.3/4 specific issue as I ported the mod to 1.21.4 and tested it here.

damm you really implemented pure es context?

I tried to use the freedreno driver on an Adreno device to use this mod, but it cannot start because of this issue.

PojavLauncher does not implement ES context API in glfw-stub (pojavexec), it won't work without further changes.
