Hello Tomi,

In the past I used this panel compat instead of the
panel-raspberrypi-touchscreen.c and it worked.
IIRC Marek splitted the multi-function module into a regulator and the
panel description.
Ok... Indeed https://pip.raspberrypi.com/categories/651-pcn lists PH800480T013 as one of the panels used. Although two variants are listed, and also a third panel model, possibly from another vendor.

My module is v1.1, and I think it has the PH800480T013-IAC21 D/5624/ KIT- LC variant.
A question to Marek: Where did you get the timings for PH800480T013? Did you find a datasheet?

I tested the "powertip,ph800480t013-idf02". I'm using BeagleY-AI here, and it didn't work at all. After some testing, I figured out these:

HSW of 2 is much too small. But this could be an issue on the display controller or the DSI encoder side. HWS of around 8 starts to work ok. Below that, I don't get anything on the screen.

The syncs are interesting. I set them to DISPLAY_FLAGS_VSYNC_HIGH | DISPLAY_FLAGS_HSYNC_HIGH, Marek to DRM_MODE_FLAG_NVSYNC | DRM_MODE_FLAG_NHSYNC. But I have sent the TC358762 series, which fixes the syncs that the bridge sends (20260327-tc358762-fixes-v2-0-3589d3c45f4a@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx).

Flipping the syncs might explain why I used 46 and 23 as the backporches, Marked used 46-hsw and 23-vsw for backporches (well, Marek's vbp was off by one as I mentioned).

But now I'm getting unsure if my TC358762 fixed the syncs correctly... I'm pretty sure I measured those with my scope, though.

The fps is different, too. I aimed for 60fps, Marek for 50fps (I think, it doesn't match exactly).

In any case... I think I have to dig out my scope again and validate that I see exactly what I have in the driver. Btw, reviews for the TC358762 series is appreciated!
