Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

I have an ILI9488 3.5" LCD on a MM Backpack MK3. MM.VER 5.05.05
I have loaded the display driver with the orientation Landscape but the display is Portrait. I tried using Portrait mode and it is still Portrait.
I seem to remember something about this but can't find anything.

I fixed the problem by loading the ILI9488 driver from the Silicon Chip 'Advanced GPS Computer' article. Now works OK ????

I have a question in same topic:
My SPI display ILI9488 works with no issue, but I bought this ILI9488 3.95" display and I don't know how to connect to Picomite. Any advice?

Thank you

It has an 8 bit parallel interface and I don't think it will work.

On my Arduino setup I think I used just 4 low bits and SPI

Palcal you are right, this is 8 bit parallel interface, so there is no driver for it?

The only parallel one listed in the manual (p45) is SSD1963.
