Alternate to Ozzmaker 3.5 inch display

Mark · December 28, 2018, 6:41pm

I am ready to get a 3.5 inch display here in the US but don’t see that the Ozzmaker display are easily available.

I look at Amazon and I see these alternatives:

Quimat
Smraza
UCtronics
OSOYOO
LANDZO
Kuman

Can anybody recommend one of these or maybe another alternative?

I think somebody tried Landzo already

NO OSOYOO, they just resale kedei.net LCDs. NO DRIVERS!! There are only compiled kernels to download.

I have this one: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/3-5-3-5-Inch-TFT-LCD-Touch-Screen-320x480-SPI-RGB-Display-Board-For-Raspberry/32834124804.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.27424c4dP9kN76

100% compatible with PiScreen2 in Zynthian config menu (I am not able to test touch screen, I breaked it )

And this is kedei.net nonsense LCD rebranded by Osoyoo: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/New-Original-3-5-Inch-LCD-TFT-Touch-Screen-Display-for-Raspberry-Pi-2-Raspberry-Pi/32851565266.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.27424c4dJHBVgs

Im sure its been discussed (Im new), but has their been discussion of using a larger screen?

5 or maybe 7" I think would be perfect

touch screen?

I use the standard raspberry pi 7" touchscreen. It’s upside down by default.

Ironically you use the custom setup to access it …

Have you tried the Kedei v6.3? Iv got it at home but have no success. I will try piscreen config.
did you install drivers provided by the seller?

Kiron · October 21, 2019, 8:20am

Kedei is piece of shit. No drivers, no documentation, only precompiled kernel. You can test your biggest hammer you have.

Lemonmale · October 21, 2019, 8:21am

not sure, but on kedeis website you can download drivers only, aswell as ready system image or just the kernel. I tried to download the drivers and just run .LCD35_v2 but no luck. Zynthian booted tho (could access webui)

EDIT: Saw now that the install script installs kernelimage. NVM
