Hi Adam,

I think something wrong with your dmesg links, both logs look the same.
We should see this log in the "bad" one:
fmt:0x34325258, has_alpha:0x0, alpha:0xffff, con:0x2000

But anyway, I think the reason for the downgrade is clear enough to me.
So let's try to figure out the solution.

Got it.
Then OVL_CONST_BLEND might be the unsupported configuration in MT8173,
I think we should remove the XRGB8888 format for MT8173.

Could you please try this modification and see if it'll change to use
others supported format to show the text?
