Just noticed that I have errors in a console in such case: "there is no vertex array object bound" and in Logcat: "GL Exception occurred during RunIteration GL.GetError() returned 1282"
I tried this on Android, I can confirm it. GL.DrawElementsIndirect outputs "there is no vertex array object bound". MonoGame doesn't use vertex array objects currently, only vertex buffer objects. I'm wondering if using a VAO would make it work.
But if I replace this one line, it works on My android device:
// GraphicsDevice.DrawInstancedPrimitivesIndirect(PrimitiveType.TriangleList, indirectDrawBuffer1);
GraphicsDevice.DrawPrimitives(PrimitiveType.TriangleList, 0, 6);
So it could draw from a vertex buffer.
I've found an article on this. Long story short: we need a VAO. You might get away without creating one with some OpenGL drivers, but for maximum compatibility, you need to create one. I'll try to do some code sketches today but I have no experience with opengl and VAO is kinda sophisticated matter. If you have some time, please give me some short instruction on how to implement it.
I suppose all the magic of binding lies in the GraphicsDevice.OpenGl.ApplyAttribs(), doesn't it?
Correct me if I'm wrong. We only have to create a VAO just to have one and that's all we have to do. We can do it once in the indirect call wraper or even in the GL initialization. The algorithm is:
Create the VAO
GLuint vao_name;
glGenVertexArrays(1, &vao_name);
Bind the VAO
glBindVertexArray(vao_name);
{ do some stuff }
Unbind the VAO
I'm trying to implement it but for now I have Fatal signal 11 (SIGSEGV), code 1 (SEGV_MAPERR) crash...
Maybe this wiki page helps: https://wiki.delphigl.com/index.php/Vertex_Array_Object It shows all the needed steps.

Description
I fought a couple of days trying to get my indirect draw shader work on Android device and gained no result. So I've modified your Android example from a direct to an indirect drawing and got the same - nothing is being drawn. Unmodufied sample project works as it should.
this is my modified code:
Steps to Reproduce
Deploy project from attachments to an Android device
Minimal Example Repo
No response
Expected Behavior
The example draws particles
Resulting Behavior
The example draws nothing but UI
