I have an app which does not show any GPU options under the Process Metrics in the SnapDragon Profiler. I have other apps on my device (e.g. - ESPN, Facebook) which have the GPU options shown under the Process, but non show up for mine. How can I enable these metrics for my app ?
GPU metric options not showing up for my app

Does the app have internet permissions enabled in the manifest? That's usually the cause when GPU metrics are missing, but others are available. Try adding that, and let me know if that made a difference.

Adding the following to the manifest worked:
Internet permissions AND also android:hardwareAccelerated="true" in the application.
However, this only worked on my 820 device. I actually need it to work on the 410 chip and the exact same app does not show the GPU metric option when running on the 410. Is process-specific GPU monitoring supported on the 410 ?
Yeah, looks like you will have to try the older Adreno Profiler for your 410 device, and not Snapdragon Profiler.
