Does the device's codec support HDR to SDR tone-mapping for HDR10? I suspect it doesn't, but it may also only support tone-mapping in HLG10, or not support HDR to SDR tone-mapping at all.

If the device's codec doesn't support HDR to SDR tone-mapping for HDR10, then this version of Transformer wouldn't be able to decode and tone-map this content.

However, the main (not yet release) branch of Transformer will be able to convert this, as long as you're on an API 29+ device, using HDR_MODE_TONE_MAP_HDR_TO_SDR_USING_OPEN_GL, or this option in the Transformer demo.

with Beta02 release on the same device we were able to execute the test with our version of the app using the libs. It was noticed first on rc01. I will try this above mentioned api call and update the thread.
