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) | ||

+ | 1. Download the library: | ||
+ | The most up to date driver will be here: | ||

+ | \\ | ||
+ | 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 | ||
