?Hi, G2,


Thanks for your interest on sc6821 kernel.


Regards on your question, I searched my git tree in internal server of 
spreadtrum and I didn't find the LCD driver you request either.

here, the commit 1556da1f ?seems not a kernel commit id.

I searched my whole tree and I didn't find any keyword of zen, u105 or even 
related 105.

I also failed to find any lcd info regards on 0x99 or ili9481.

my tree of video part looks like:


drivers/video/spreadtrum/
├── Kconfig
├── lcdc.c
├── lcd_hx8357_1.c
├── lcd_hx8357.c
├── lcd_hx8357_openphone.c
├── lcd_hx8369.c
├── lcd_ili9341_boe.c
├── lcd_ili9341_boe_mint.c
├── lcd_ili9486.c
├── lcd_nt35510.c
├── lcd_nt35516.c
├── lcdpanel.c
├── lcdpanel.h
├── lcd_rm6158_truly.c
├── lcd_s6d04h0.c
├── Makefile
├── sprdfb.h
└── sprdfb_main.c

I guess they are same as yours.


my branches are


# git branch -r | grep 6821


  korg/sprdb2g_gonk4.0_6821
  korg/sprdb2g_gonk4.0_6821_mp

So, I guess the Zen 105 code was modified by our FAE (or even mozilla guys) 
which  is not sync with spreadtrum kernel team.
That makes sense because our customers always have a strong willing on cost 
down.
They may make some changes at the last minute.


I will forward this question to FAE for you, but I am not sure if they could 
response me soon.


BTW, you could join our public mailing list sprdlinux@xxxxxxxxxxxxx or you also 
could touch me at #sprdlinux @ freednode irc.


I am also interesting on sc682x for its amazing low price.


Happy hacking!


    Orson

Thanks for response Zhizhou!

Orrzon/Chunyan: Could you please take a look and see if something can be done: 
I am trying to build kernel for Zen 105 Firefox mobile phone which is based on 
6821 SoC and sp6821a_gonk. Mostly the kernel is working but I am missing 
information about LCD Controller and Touch screen controller. I did a git clone 
from spreadtrum git repo at 
http://sprdsource.spreadtrum.com:8085/b2g/android/kernel/common

Any information would be useful!

-G2

Hi Zhizhou,

Sorry for contacting you like this - I found your name attached to spreadtrum 
commits on the LKML.

I am trying to build kernel for spreadtrum 6821 SoC, but some problem with LCD 
Controller settings.

Is it possible for you to help me a bit, or put me in touch with someone at 
spreadtrum?

Details of what I have done till now are found here:

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/mozilla.dev.b2g/G56RgAgcOOM

and here:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1128904

I'd really appreciate any help. Thanks!

-G2
