Modify the MPU3050 driver in linux kernel (Android) to use MPU6050

Question

I have a device to run (gsensor, MPU6050) with an Android system. I can't build it directly because it does not exist with the 3.4 kernel, but I wonder if I can modify the MPU3050 driver for my device works.

I have found this readme , but I wonder if it will work ?

Edit: After half of work*, here a part of dmesg :

*Just the drivers has been compiled, the kernel hasn't been modified. The following here .

Answer 1

Yes, you can.

Consult the data sheets for the difference between the capabilities and registers of each device, but I believe you will find that the mpu-6050 is a superset of the mpu-3050 so extending a driver for one to accommodate the other should be a simple case of programming-by-example.

Your question as asked is borderline inappropriate here - Stackoverflow exists to provide assistance with specific problems and you have not stated any actual issue beyond wondering if it possible, to which the answer as given above is yes, provided that you do the work and learn from the resources available to you.
