2.4" tft lcd display

Hello,
I recived from Ebay a display. 2.4 inch tft lcd.
I just can't get it work!
How can I use it?!?!

Note: its NOT a shield and NOT a touch display.
its a Winstar's display.

PLEASE share anything u know :smiley:

first this is a forum, not social media, use proper spelling and no shortcut spellings.
we are the collective "you", we definitely are not "u".

What Arduino Board are you using?
What version of Arduino IDE are you using?
Make and model of the display?
Link to the eBay page which sells this display.
Please use proper URL tags.

Photographs of the front and back of the display.
bundle into a zip archive and post the zip archive as an attachment.

Lastly, what have you tried so far?

is this the display that you purchased?
Winstar 2.4 inch TFT LCD Display

If this is the display that you purchased, you need to purchase a connector for the flexible connector so that is is not damaged.

will still need photographs of the front and back of the display that you have.

Hello artisticforge and sorry for the late reply (I had to do something in the last few days),

Yes, This is the display.
I got it in a 30$ ocilloscope kit, so it already has the pins soldered. The ocilloscope is not working quite good (as expected from this kind of kits) but I wondered if there is anything to do with the TFT display.

I didnt tried anything so far, I just can't fint anything on the web. even not a datasheet of the display! (Maybe I just had to search a little bit more...)

*I know this is a forum. not a social media. Now I learned how to post on this forum.

1)I am using a normal Arduino Uno R3 board.
2)I am using Arduino IDE 1.8.5 on windows 10 64bits.
3)The model can be found here, as you mentiond before.
4)Linked the page from Wish before.
5)Used the URL tags. thank you for letting me know that I should use that.

How ever, I can't upload photos of the display because they are too big

What should I do now? Should I try to connect the pins like the shield? (replicate the circuit on a breadboard)

Thank you for helping me,
Arad.

The Wish website requires me to sign up.
But from a look at the "oscilloscope kit" I am guessing it uses a 3.3V STM32F103.

The photos of your screen module are definitely 3.3V.
There is no sign of any regulator or level shifters.

You will have to provide level-shifters on every 5V logic signal from the Uno.
And supply the screen from the Uno's wimpy 3.3V pin.

You have probably got a schematic with the kit.
Compare your 20x2 header pinout with the standard 20x2 pinout of a standard 40-pin TFT Adapter shield for Mega. If the pinout matches, you could buy the Mega Adapter shield and a Mega clone.

Be careful with the Adapter. It probably has a 3.3V / 5V jumper setting.

If you want specific advice, post the kit schematic.
