I liked your video enough to buy one of these displays. However, aliexpress changed and is no longer letting me into my account. Seems like they don't mind turning away customers.

Was it just me? but PIN D8 was never shown at the connection scheme??? What is connected there? D5 - SCK D2 - SDA D6 - RES D1 - DC Where is D8??? (3:12)

[@marios_ideas]

No it is not just you:) There is a whole section of this video talking about this module not having chip select pin. Whoever wrote the library did not forsee that somebody would jjust choose to to have it. So I need to declare a pin to be able to declare the display. If I had a different module then I would be connecting D8 to CS. In this case regardless of what D8 pin is set to the CS is allways acrive as this is the way it is connected internally in the module. And because of that this module cannot be used together with other SPI devices as you cannot switch active device as this display is always active

@@marios_ideas you say connect D2 to SDA and then define "TFT_RST D2".... Sorry but I'm very lost, could you be so kind to illustrate me on how to connect and how to define the pins.... I still can't make My ESP8266 to work with ST7789 displaying a T. Sensor. My Screen is just Black Conections ST7789 - ESP8266 SCL - D5 SDA - D2 RES - D6 DC - D1 Can you give me hand??

​@@DavidHernandez-lp1ocWhatever you see in the diagram is the proper connectivity SCL - D5 SDA - D7 RES - D2 DC - D1 Not sure How I messed up the despriptions. I think I used different ports. D6 which is MISO Master in Slave OUT does not have to be used as display (slave) does not send anything back to microcontroller (master)
