OMG THIS IS UNBELIEVABLE!!!!!!

[@tomtaylor5565]

Unfortunately, there is no schematic, however wiring is pretty simple: LCD0 - RPi SDO(MISO) - MISO/GPIO9, pin21 (common) LED - 5V through 1k resistor, pin 2 (common) SCK - CLK/GPIO11, pin23 (common) SDI(MOSI) - MOSI/GPIO10, pin19 (common) D/C - GPIO24, pin18 RESET - GPIO25, pin22 CS - CE0/GPIO8, pin24 GND - GND, pin 6 (common) VCC - 3.3V, pin 1 (common) LCD1 - RPi SDO(MISO) - MISO/GPIO9, pin21 (common) LED - 5V through 1k resistor, pin 2 (common) SCK - CLK/GPIO11, pin23 (common) SDI(MOSI) - MOSI/GPIO10, pin19 (common) D/C - GPIO18, pin12 RESET - GPIO23, pin16 CS - CE1/GPIO7, pin26 GND - GND, pin 6 (common) VCC - 3.3V, pin 1 (common) Display module: www.ebay.com/itm/1PC-2-2-Inch-SPI-TFT-LCD-Serial-Port-Module-Display-ILI9341-5V-3-3V-New-/190923137633?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2c73e7e261

Can you please make a how to build video on this and how to program it

[@tomtaylor5565]

I planned to create a patch, but I did not find the original RPi kernel source (3.6.y). I have the working copy of the modified kernel source, however: drive.google.com/file/d/0B5PYG94CDdBtY2l0R3Uzd1BESVU/edit?usp=sharing

Hi Tom, your tutorial looks fine. but i have a problem: it flikers very fast, and the console output is only a quater from the full size. three quater are white. any tips? (i attached only one LCD)

[@SandUhrGucker]

problem solved. i used the wrong sources

[@MrOverlader]

SandUhrGucker What exacly did you made?

[@tomtaylor5565]

It's just for fun.

[@jonbonacorsi683]

Can you explain how you did this ? @SandUhrGucker

[@4Dipayan]

really awesome work ! i just exactly needed this ! can you please describe how to make up the whole setup apart from hardware connections ? thanks

[@raffyturc]

Wow! Some peoples are just smart 👍

[@enda0man]

I need some help, Im making a raspberry pi laptop and I want two connect a regular display in the front as my main and a smaller E-ink display on the back so i can change the icon on the back to show notifications, and logos. But i do not know how to, anyone???

[@schwrample]

Hi Tom, Im facing the same issue in my project. Could you help me to set up two displays on raspberry? I want to do the same you did but I didnt understand you files. Thanks

[@HagenMobiler]

If you still need to run two TFT display on Raspberry Pi, follow this thread github.com/notro/fbtft/issues/280#issuecomment-290314992 After many tries, finally I got it.

[@d3-nguyenthanhphat947]

please show me how to do this. I really need this for my dual screen project for raspberry pi 3. Thanks you!

[@HagenMobiler]

How did you create the second framebuffer for second display? How did you make that kernel have two /dev/fb* to show at same time? thanks

[@wilsonhungara834]

Hi, have you got an tutorial to use one ILI9341 based display on raspberry pi? thanks!

[@tomtaylor5565]

You can find all the necessary information in the previous comments if you want to clone this.

[@Tflooo]

Thanks for sharing. Could this work with 5 touchscreen displays? Each display performing different actions - i.e. touch keyboard, mouse, joystick, displaying a powerpoint, shortcuts? I don't want the screens to be extensions of each other, I want them to act as different roles that can be assigned/selected.

[@someoneyoudontknow106]

how do i install the kernel? THANKS!

[@jonbonacorsi683]

Can you explain how you update the kernel ? I not sure of the process because you did not link the img file ;-/ I am not familiar with the kernel replacement...

[@DoubleDipChipsOfficial]

do you think it will work with like 10 of these, but all touch screen? i have a cool project in mind if it will.

[@gergelydobos3941]

Hi, maybe this solution can be possible to work with a smaller, 64*128 OLED display? Thanks!

[@alexanderjack5937]

Does this method work with your display?!

[@OnnieKoski]

Amazing. I wonder if I can get this to work with RetroPie 🤔

[@ebbenawesome2521]

Awesome work man!! maybe I am 6 years late but I have one question. What am I supposed to do with the files in the description, if anyone can answer?

[@entozoon]

Amazing, so you can just connect a bunch to the same SDO/SDI pins and there's no issue. skills

[@AliMulla]

Hi I also have 2 of these. Are there any schematics available for hooking them up?

[@afonsusmuralha]

How do u use the keyboard on the two screens?

[@alexanderjack5937]

Which Raspberry Pi model did you use?

[@sanb3586]

Hey can you make vr glass with it

[@NeoShinkai]

How to use this with Android pi?

[@NeoShinkai]

(with lcd Touchscreen)

[@maularamadhan4290]

Awesome! I can't even install one of the screens.. Do you mind to explain to me how to install the screen so that I can use the screen as Raspberry pi main display?

[@tomtaylor5565]

Maula Ramadhan Hi, I updated the description (see upward).I hope it contains everything to create your own one.

[@maularamadhan4290]

Tom Taylor Thank you so much Tom, I am sorry I just happened to see it now.

[@maularamadhan4290]

Tom Taylor Hello, I've tried those steps to install your shared kernel copy, but still cannot turn the display on. the fact that I used raspberry pi 2, will it become the problem? or the fact that I used later kernel and firmware already that I can not use your sources? looking forward your answer Tom. Thanks.

amazing :)
