DCMI on STM32F4-Discovery board

Can DCMI be used on the STM32F4Discovery board? It appears that there are pin conflicts that make it impossible.

PA4 - DCMI_HSYNC conflicts with CS43L22 - LRCK/AN1x

PA6 - DCMI_PIXCLK conflicts with LIS302DL - SDO

PB6 - DCMI_D5 conflicts with CS43L22 - SCL

PC7 - DCMI_D1 conflicts with CS43L22 - MCLK

The STM3240G-EVAL board appears to use the H and I pins to avoid these conflicts.

For reference, I am looking at Table 5 of DM00039084.pdf (User Manual for STM32F4DISCOVERY) and Figure 20 of DM00036746.pdf (for the STM3240G-EVAL board). 

Any comments or suggestions? Thanks.

Impossible seems to overstate the problem, it is a $15-20 USD board, remove the conflicting external hardware and experiment. It is classed as a ''throw away'' board with which to ''get creative'', if you need a more feature rich board it is likely an order of magnitude more expensive.
