ANOTHER Sainsmart 3.2" TFT Screen topic..

dosftw:
Hey everyone, I just thought I would make good on my promise to post a video of my screen working.

Here I have the SD demo uploaded into my Arduino showing a selection of .RAW images.

Unfortunately.. for some reason the screen is very blue :S is has been like that since I got it working.

I have also replaced the jumpers with nice and neatly arranged and tidy Male to Female cables that came in the post today :slight_smile: If you live in the UK and you buy a lot of stuff on eBay then 4tronix_uk are a fantastic eSeller. Extremely helpful, courteous and efficient. I hope its ok to say that on the boards, if not let me know and I will remove it from my post .

Hi Nathan
Can you post the wiring diagram for the Mega and 3.2 LCD please.

Hi Nathan
Can you post the wiring diagram for the Mega and 3.2 LCD please.

Glomming onto an almost two year old post with a question is sure-fire way to be ignored. Dosftw has not made another post on this board since the one above so I seriously doubt he is just waiting on his computer to answer your question.

Why don't you read the sticky post at the top of this section on how to use the forum and start a new thread with your question that contains some detail on the problem you're trying to solve?

Yes, here :- Mega wiring ;):stuck_out_tongue:

Much more reliable, and almost guaranteed to work!

avr_fred hi, it seems not only has he resurrected this thread, but another old one in the DUE board too, not sure if he knows what he needs, but I posted a link to Henning's libraries on the other thread. UTFT Libraries and code.

Regards,

Graham

Thanks Graham, appreciate your help.

Hi there,

I do have Problems with this display too.

If it is possible ( without any shift registers ) I would like to use the display on an Arduino NANO in a serial mode ... I know it will be very slow but thats ok.

I want to use a library that can do so, not want to write it myself ...

If it is NOT possible to drive the display serial I would like to use it in 8 bit mode ... as less pins as possible

please help me, I'm looking for a lib, pinout and examples

Excuse my newbieness but how on gods green earth am I meant to be able to read that haha!! :stuck_out_tongue:

Made me laugh ! :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: I was thinking the same thing !
Trying to work the screen witthout the shield
