(How to recognize) the new FP2 Display Module

Necro-bumping this to post my findings with a sample size of 5:

How to differentiate the two display module versions:

  • The metal shapes at the bottom of the display - as visible in picture from first post
  • Or via software:
    • run dmesg in adb shell
    • at the top there’s Kernel command line: contains otm1902b (= old module) or s6d6fa1 (= new module)
    • (the same information can be found in /proc/cmdline)

What isn’t differentiating - for my samples:

  • Serial number (A3 + A4 are new; A3 is old)
  • TM-C2 marking on all displays (old & new)
