Trying to get a 2.8" TFT Touch screen to work on arduino UNO

Other Hardware Displays

Ive been trying to use this touch screen, i downloaded i appplied the libraries suggested in the comments and nothing, after a while of googling i have found nothing relevant (at least think so, i got no experience with TFT touch screens or advanced arduino stuff), none of the example code seems to work, the screen stays white and the serial plotter empty.
To be honest im completly lost, the backside of the shield only reads "2.6"/2.8"TFT LCD Shield" aside from the marked pins can anyone give me any clues as how to make it work?

I bought this one from the same shop.
I tried a lot of libraries, but finaly it works with the Mcufriend_kbv_2.5 library.
Check following link:

Good luck !

I would like to ask for help as well.. Sorry to beat a dead horse, but some specifically direct and clear guidance would be greatly appreciated. I purchased a bunch of Arduino stuff (ie..:two UNOs, a Seeed TFT Shield, Seeed Relay Shield, and a Seeed GPRS Shield, as well as books, ARDX kits and basic electronics starter kits, etc...). - Back to the horse..... mine was never alive :frowning: . I have the Uno Rev.3, and thee TFT shield V1.0. I have read countless posts on MANY forums (Seeed included). I CANNOT achieve anything but a white screen. I had errors at the beginning, but now I am getting no errors, and still, I am seeing a white screen. I have tried various IDE versions, library installations, sketches, etc... Does anyone have this touch screen shield and have you ever got it to work???? If you are willing to help, would you be willing to guide me from the very beginning? If I were to just open this Shield out of the package, have it sitting next to an Arduino Uno R3, Arduino IDE 1.6.7 freshly installed, what do I do next? ANY help will be GREATLY appreciated! Thank you!

Please post links to the actual display and shield that you have.

I am sure that a Seeed display will work with Seeed library examples.
Plug a shield into the Uno and run each example.

Of course, you can probably use 'other' libraries but we need to know exactly what you have got. Even the Seeed library might need updating for v1.6.7 but I doubt it.
