The problem is - last time I was trying to compile Android from source codes I failed with compiling 2.3.4 version. I succeeded to compile 4.2.2 or newer only. |
Thanks for the link.
It make sense that the rotation be done in android and not in the driver
As I understand, the kolino is based on an early (and buggy) implementation of this functionnality ?
(Their custom app don't support landscape so they don't care)
So we need to recompile all the android stuff (without original source) ?
It is then the same difficulty than porting android on a new device, right ?
Not so easy I think...
------
I'm thinking of another (not so easy too) solution.
1) Compile a new IR driver (touchscreen) based on original with modification to send rotated coordonates
> could be done easily with the source avaliable.
2) Write an android App with a button for rotation.
This app would rotate screen manually and in the same time switch from Normal IR Driver to Rotated IR Driver
I think it's possible because I remember OTG patch work this way by switching drivers.
Better: This app could also emulate the missing orientation.
All users apps would then run normally with system orientation settings.
