Yet again new screen doesn't work

Sat Sep 12, 2015 2:03 am

I recently bought another screen, I couldn't get my 3.2 inch to work, Spent 70$ altogether for overnight shipping, This is the Amazon link. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00Z9N ... ge_o01_s00


The provided image does boot If I use my hdmi from my computer but when I set the /boot/config.txt to use the HDMI hotplug it doesn't pop up. I've tried plugging power into the screen but it doesn't turn white like my other screen does when powered up. Could this be a faulty screen? I've tried for two days to get anyone from that "company" to contact me about this screen. There is LITTLE to no documention sent with the screen, I'm stuck at a loss..I'd like to be able to take my PI around with me to use.

If anyone can walk me through the steps If they have this screen I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you in advanced <3

I spent almost 9 hours today messing with it, Countless different OS, Rasbian, Wheezy, Kali, Noobs etc. Haven't even gotten the screen to light up like my other 3.2 does when plugged into the GPIO pins. Like I said in the above post, The image supplied does work and boot up when connected to my HDMI but doesn't on my screen. I followed their "instructions" and enabled the hotplug in /boot/config.txt and as you can see. Still no working screen :( I've still yet to hear back from their "Engineer" about this, Took three angry emails to get them to reply. I don't want to give up on this screen, But I really don't want to spend money on another. :(

I've tried these instructions so far. http://www.spotpear.com/learn/EN/raspbe ... e-LCD.html
and http://www.circuitbasics.com/setup-lcd- ... pberry-pi/

Still nothing so far :(

That is what their Image consists. Any idea's? I'd really like to get this screen working so I can use it at work :P

You may get more help if you use the 'Code' tags instead of endless screens of difficult to follow text in the body of your posts.

Thanks :P I've gotten further with it somehow...Touch screen works, I can move my finger across it and it moves the mouse etc, But still no display on the screen.
