Your wording is a bit misleading as you make it sounds like the 3D part is missing. It's not, it's just that the 3D hardware and display hardware are usually totally separate things in the ARM world. I recall my ZTE Blade had an Adreno GPU.

This driver was developed by ZTE Corporation in conjunction with Linaro for having this open-source DRM/KMS display driver for ZTE SoCs.

Since when did ZTE make their own SoCs? The only Chinese mobile handset vendor I know that makes its own SoCs is Huawei with its Kirin chips. AFAIK, every other Chinese handset maker uses a complete stack from Mediatek or Allwinner.
