I purchased a 3.5" TFT LCD display from Banggood and after awhile I got it to work displaying text but the sc card will not work. I am new to Arduino programming and can't figure out what to do. I tried several libiaries I saw on various fourns but still cannot get the sd card to read or write or to show bmps. Can anyone give me a format that will allow me to get this thing working right. PLEASE HELP!!!! My email is magus49@gmail.com (that is how desperate I am).
did u try MCUFRIEND_kbv library?
Yes. I can run several of the test programs but I have not been able to use the sd card. On the back of the sheild it shows the sd card pins are connected to the analog pins not the digital pins. I have not been able to get it to upload anything from the sd card.
Ok, you have only just joined the Forum.
It is wise to read a few similar posts to see how to ask questions.
Please post a link to the actual item that you have bought e.g. the BangGood sale, Ebay sale, ...
Or a photo of the pcb which often has some printed text
A link is much easier than a photo.
You then get an accurate answer in one go.

Thanks for the insight. Like I said this is my first post. I will get more info on the item and try again.
