Connect the pins on the raspberry pi to the screen. To test the connection, plug in the raspberry pi. The screen should glow white. Take the SD card, and install it with the latest version of Rasbian. Attach the USB microphone and adapter.

Attach raspberry pi to monitor, and go through the setup guide. Go into a terminal and type

sudo rm -rf LCD-show
git clone https://github.com/goodtft/LCD-show.git
chmod -R 755 LCD-show
cd LCD-show/
sudo ./LCD-show 90

Wait a few minutes until your monitor turns off and your screen turns on. Open another terminal and type

sudo nano /usr/bin/toggle-keyboard.sh

than inside the file type

#!/bin/bash
PID="$(pidof matchbox-keyboard)"
if [  "$PID" != ""  ]; then  kill $PID
else matchbox-keyboard &
fi

Press ctrl+x, then y, then enter to save.

Type

sudo chmod +x /usr/bin/toggle-keyboard.sh

Once that is done type

sudo nano /usr/share/raspi-ui-overrides/applications/toggle-keyboard.desktop.

Inside the file type

[Desktop Entry]

Name=Toggle Virtual Keyboard

Comment=Toggle Virtual Keyboard

Exec=/usr/bin/toggle-keyboard.sh

Type=Application

Icon=matchbox-keyboard.png

Categories=Panel;Utility;MB

X-MB-INPUT-MECHANISM=True

Then press ctrl+x, then y, then enter to save.

Run cp /etc/xdg/lxpanel/LXDE-pi/panels/panel /home/pi/.config/lxpanel/LXDE-pi/panels/panel than

nano /home/pi/.config/lxpanel/LXDE-pi/panels/panel. Go to the bottom and type

Plugin {

 type=launchbar

 Config {

  Button {

   id=toggle-keyboard.desktop

  }

 }

}

Press ctrl+x, then y, then enter to save.

sudo reboot. When the screen loads again, on the taskbar you should see a keyboard. This is for texting.

On your computer type www.poptox.com. This is a google website that is a dialer. Subscribe for any plan you want, from $10 to $50. You will get unlimited calls. Type this in the raspberry pi browser and star it so you don't have to type to get it. Go to Vonage to get a free trail texting. Star that too. Anything you want to add like games, star. If you want to text, open google, click the Vonage star, and click the keyboard in the taskbar.

To wrap it together, you can either use zip ties, or 3D print this case. After printing the case I cut out holes for the power and headphone jack. Attach the headphone jack into the port and test calling.

Thank tyspa for the 3D case of his old raspberry pi phone. Thanks PiMyLifeUp for the keyboard code. Thank you for building this! Please like and follow for more projects!
