You might get a solution within minutes. The previous poster did not think it worth the effort.

Of course, I've added the photo to my previous post and here is the actual ebay listing of the display:

The HX8347-I is very similar to the HX8347-D and HX8347-G.
Unfortunately, it is a lot different to the HX8347-A.

From the photo in the Ebay link, it looks like an 8-bit bus.

UTFT supports the HX8347-A with a 16-bit bus.

Adafruit_TFTLCD supports a HX8347-G on an 8-bit bus. You will need to force it to use HX8347-G by saying tft.begin(0x7575).

Please let us know how you get on.

I was able to get things working using a configuration file from mcufriend.com and modifications to the UTFT library. It all works fine and I've posted the library here:
