it is nice display with temperature sensor on it, so it could be good for bunch of projects. I just got the display from ebay without knowing what I am getting exactly until I saw it. it took 2 months to arrive from China.
they gave me some libraries which I see now are hacked versions of the mcufriend, which is a big mess because they have the same names, which is confusing.
lesson learnt. looks like I will be avoiding them in future, each time you have to switch the libraries and you make bunch of mess.
this was a real frustration to get it working because I though it would run on original mcufriend, adafruit library.
and I did not know what was wrong.
