Versatile 1.44-inch LCD Display HAT: High-Resolution with SPI Interface | Compatible with Raspberry Pi/STM32 Boards | Includes ST7735S Driver Review

For the last 4 days I've been trying to get this to work. The online instructions are outdated and written in broken English. I am resorting to a pre-made disk image that someone else has made available for download because the instructions are impossible to follow.

I got it working by following the instructions to install the Luma library (search for it on Github) and the following command from the terminal python demo.py --interface spi --display sh1106 I didn't realize that the screen was only 1 color.

It's been working for me for a few days now. It is connected to the main node of my mini pi cluster. Setup was relatively easy. The instructions were good for the most part. Make sure you install all required libraries mentioned in the guide - there is a link in part of the guide pdf that you need to follow to install all the libraries. The instructions also don't quite cover where to find the I2C settings if you have a newer Pi. For a newer version of the Pi, you must first select "Interface…

Easy to install, found a great test script and got the demo working in just 10 minutes with a few modifications in the system, was able to build the demo easily. The demo showed code for three buttons and a joystick, making it easy to create the launch of another ZeroW project. Also managed to find a few more tweaks to tweak the system to display the console instead of running the program to display on the LCD, all within the first 30 minutes of installing and powering on to zero. If anyone…
