[EDIT]
Thanks to the work of rimidalv007, we now can use BenF 3.11 firmware on ILI9341-equipped devices!

It seems that many users, like myself, are stuck with official firmware due to LCD driver mismatch (9341 vs 7781).
As far as I know, BenF isn't interested in solving that issue and there's no source code of his work available.
I won't risk buying another device just to find out that I got unlucky again, it's pointless.

I'd love to know is there really any reason for me to stick with device that will be impossible to upgrade. Right now, the measurement menu of 4.22 official firmware shows trash in most of cases. Especially frequency measurement fails badly. It would be nice to know if I should go hunting on eBay for working option if I can't get DSO running a bit more reliably. It is the case if BenF abandoned his project and don't want to give away his solutions for free, which would be perfectly understandable. I don't know that, I couldn't get in touch with him.

So I'm asking you all if you have any info on BenF plans and/or other working firmware options.

If anyone have source code of BenF 3.64 APP and 3.53 LIB please contact me urgently.
I have a source code for 4.22 original firmware which handles ILI 9341 display so it should be possible to run BenF 3.64 on new devices.
