 The main reason I bought this display was that the header only uses 12 pins, and leaves access to the remaining header pins. The drivers are available online, although they are a bit fiddly, mainly its easy to lose the display if you do an apt-upgrade. However, once a stand alone project is complete, it is unlikely that you will update it (why would you if it still works?) The main reason I bought this display was that the header only uses 12 pins, and leaves access to the remaining header pins.

 +Follow these steps to install the LCD (assuming you have the same model)
 \\  \\ 
 +\\ 
 +Here is the model of LCD I am using:
 +\\ 
 +{{:pi_lcd_02.jpg?200|}}
 +\\ 
 +    1. Download the library:
 +        The most up to date driver will be here:
 +        
 +        https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B0DYHppEJ9cHbnRzSk9oUVAyMkk&usp=sharing
 +        
 +Or you can use: {{ :i2c_lcd.zip |}} from here, this worked with Raspbian Jesse.
 +\\ 
 +    2. Unzip the files: tar -xzvf LCD_show_v6_0_2.tar.gz
 +    
 +    3. Change the the new directory: cd LCD_show_v6_0_2
 +    
 +    4. Update System: sudo apt-get update
 +    
 +    5. Install Driver: sudo ./LCD35_v (Pi will auto reboot)
 +    
 +    6. If you want to use HDMI then: sudo ./LCD_hdmi
 +    
 +    7. Run this before Pi Update: sudo apt-mark hold raspberrypi-bootloader  
 +    
 +    8. sudo apt-get update
 +    
 +    9. sudo apt-get upgrade
 +\\ 
 +==== Note ====
 +\\ 
 +Everytime I update the system with sudo apt-get upgrade, my LCD stops working and I have to do steps 2-6 again (actually, I don't do step 6 because I have nothing on the HDMI port)
 +\\ 
 +\\ 
 +Now you should have a working LCD
