Compatibility for Raspberry Pi 5

NoIwantyourcode opened this issue · comments

I have a 2.8 inch display for my new raspberry pi 5. I tried to use the current version of goodtft for this, However it kept on erroring out is there any solutions to this issue

Anyone?

Same here with Whadda WPI400 3.5" (using the LCD35-show). Works on Raspberry 3 and 4.

Do you know of any sort of hotfix that can be used or a more recent Driver that can be used

Would also love to see LCD35 display (320x480) support for the Raspberry Pi 5.

Is this feature part of the roadmap?

I got the 2.8 inch screen working with the Deafult driver

Same issue

OK, scratch that previous comment of mine. I think they fixed compatibility. Mine now works.

I have the same setup as @hikkoiri, Pi 5 with the 3.5 inch touch screen. However, I was connecting it via HDMI to a larger screen.

On a fresh boot, I turned on x11 via raspi-config, and set it to boot up to GUI.
After rebooting I following the instructions for installing LCD35-show and bingo! All good.

However, if I boot up with both my screens connected (HDMI and 3.5 inch touch), then the 3.5 acts as a touch pad for the HDMI screen and shows nothing but black screen. If I boot up without the HDMI screen, touch screen works great!

Glad that it is working
