With out seeing some example code that causes the problem, I’d have no idea. If you’re not getting any errors in your console log… Do you have conditional code (something android only, others Apple only)? Do you have plugins that you may be depending on that’s platform specific?
There are no errors in the console log, all plugins for Android are commented out. My apology for not providing anysample codes. Here is the sample code for the game I have in

In fact, for texture wrapping modes except “clampToEdge” (the default), you must use power-of-2 textures. This is cautioned in the following document under the “Texture Keys” sub-section:
http://docs.coronalabs.com/api/library/display/setDefault.html
Take care,
Brent
I looked in the link, and that make sense I thought my device was going crazy.
But then when I use “mirroredRepeat” or “repeat” the images for displaying in “display.newImage ( )” for regular images and not for Repeating Fills would display black images when they are not in power of 2. This problem occurs in Apple and not in Android.
In the code above I presented all the images being displayed would display black when they are not in the power of 2 for Apple. But not for Android. How come?
Hi @sebitttas,
It shouldn’t matter that the images being filled are power-of-2, only the textures filling them. Have you confirmed that this is so?
Brent
Yes, I have confirmed that. Also that is the problem I’m facing. My images that are non-texture they display black when I test for Apple, but not for Android device. The only way I can solve the black image is if my all my non-texture are in the power of 2. Which causes them to repear for Apple.
Why does the non-texture images show black for Apple and not for Android when it’s not in the power of 2?
Hi @sebitttas,
I’m not sure what the subtle differences are between the GPUs on the Apple vs. Android devices you’re testing with, but you’ll need to use strictly power-of-2 fill textures. But I thought you already were…
To be 100% clear, with these “black” images on iOS, can you fill any object (any size) with power-of-2 “tiles” and get the proper appearance? Or is it showing up black if these actual filled images are not power-of-2?
Brent
No I cannot fill any object with power-of-2 “tiles”. It would show black if the actual fill images are not power-of-2.
Hi again @sebitttas,
I think there’s still some misunderstanding…
If you have a vector object, like a display.newRect(), and you fill it with power-of-2 images, it appears black on Apple?
Brent
No It’s the opposite if I have a vector, like display.newRect( ), and I don’t fill it with it with power-of-2 images, it appears black on Apple. The same goes if the vector is display.newImage ( ).
No matter what, the images (“tiles”) that you use to fill the parent object must be power-of-2. Am I still missing something?
Yes, regardless the images (“tiles”) that I use to fill the parent object must be power-of-2. No your not missing anything.
I have this exact same problem ; an oddly size image I use as a tappable icon appears first time round, but after that it renders black on Apple only ; in the interim I use an image to tile a background and in the process set textureWrapX and textureWrapY
I would hazard a guess that using either of these causes a different fill routine to be used and the image is actually rendered as a rectangle of the required size filled with a single instance of the image, and this causes the 2^n limitation to click in.
