Simply disabling FIMC IS does not work however due to compilation
errors and a null pointer dereference. 01-fix-FIMC-IS-disabling.patch
takes care of this.
As with other exynos devices some additional things had to be disabled
to make the kernel compile after FIMC IS had been disabled,
specifically:
CONFIG_CAMERA_EEPROM
CONFIG_VIDEO_EXYNOS_MIPI_CSIS
CONFIG_LEDS_MAX77803
Apart from that we also have:
02-netfilter-symbols.patch, which fixes another compilation error.
03-usb_gadget-set-random-rndis-host-MAC-address-to-prev.patch (taken
from another device) which prevents host mac address being set to
00:00:00:00:00.
Kernel sources have been changed to the lineage-16.0 branch in the
exynos5420 repo, as that is where development happens at the moment.
based off from lineage os, manages to boot including ssh over usb.
had to disable:
CONFIG_HTC_RADIO_SMEM
CONFIG_HTC_MODEM_NOTIFIER
CONFIG_MSM_SMP2P
CONFIG_UIO_MSM_SHAREDMEM
[ci:skip-build]: already built successfully in CI
Instead of running the entire setup_usb_network_configfs function we
run the parts that are actually necessary for
setup_usb_network_android to succeed when it is run afterwards.
USB networking, Touchscreen and display are working.
CONFIG_SND_SOC_QDSP6V2 is omitted from kernel config for now as the resulting driver fails to build.
Changes:
- Depends on soc-sprd-audio-sc8830 package for audio support
- Includes fixes for X11 and color mode
- Switches to dtbtool-sprd
[ci:skip-build] Already built fine on CI in a MR
SEC_RESTRICT_ROOTING is a Samsung-specific option,
which makes unable to get root permissions
on the device.
Needed for postmarketos/pmbootstrap!2000 to be merged.
[ci:skip-build] Builds fine locally
Device: Asus Zenfone Max ZC550KL

Mainline Kernel
Works:
- Boots
- external sdcard
- Wifi/bt
- Display
- Touchscreen
I'm still working on this device. You can expect more things to work in
the future.
* Mainline kernel: enable installation of Wi-Fi firmware.
Now that we have Wi-Fi support in mainline kernel, use it.
* Mainline kernel: adjust description of mainline kernel
subpackage; we still cannot recommend it over downstream,
but it is not so experimental anymore.
* Downstream kernel: add workaround for broken SSH:
use dropbear instead of openssh server. See #808https://gitlab.com/postmarketOS/pmaports/-/issues/808
Hello there, DragonX256 here.
For now, this tablet only have flashing, USB net, display and touchscreen.
I will try to add other features soon, or, if I fail enough, switch to mainlining immediately :D
