Ive had some issues with the ILI9341 UC8230 - the shared pins for the graphics and touch is causing a lot of issues.
Ive been trying to find a screen that does not share pins with the touch screen but are unsuccessful.

SainSmart 3.2" TFT LCD Display is a LCD touch screen module. It has 40pins interface and SD card and Flash reader design. It is a powerful and muti -functional module for your project. The Screen include a controller SSD1289, it support 8/16bit data interface.

Does any one know if this will work? Are there libraries for this?

regards

If you have a free serial port a Nextion display is a nice solution, offloading all graphics to a coprocessor.

It will work with software serial probably too (with restrictions).

A search on Google suggests there is a library for that display, does it work ?

I have looked at the Nextion displays - using (SDA SCL) or Tx Rx pins. My clock is connected too SDA SCL pins. I am also unsure if the nRf24L01 data & clock data will be properly displayed on a Nextion.

Its a lot of data to transfer using only 2 pins. The graphics seems easy to learn/program though and will save on space.

Thanks

Neither SPI nor I2C is used by the Nextion, only a serial connection, some models have a RTC.
