SPFD5408 Arduino Library for 2.4 TFT

This library is the Adafruit TFT Libraries changed to works in TFT 2.4 shields with the SPFD5408 controller.

Similar projects worth following
The TFT 2.4 is cheap TFT, that generally is from China, without documentation or libraries for it.
When we try to use the TFT 2.4 with SPFD5408 controller in sketches with Adafruit TFT libraries, several things can happen :

• White Screen
• All screen with noise
• Touch not works or is inverted (coordinate Y)
• The colors are inverted
• And other things

After trying for several days trying the solutions I found on the web, and none works 100%. So I decided to do an library specific to this controller.
I changed the Adafruit libraries for TFT: GFX , TFTLCD and TouchScreen. I join all in this one library, the library SPFD5408, to avoid problems with duplicate libraries and enables also have the original library Adafruit ready for use in other projects with another TFT hardware. Download the SPFD5408 Library

I made available it in my GitHub .
Please download it in:https://github.com/JoaoLopesF/SPFD5408

Works only for ATMEL. What about STM?

I'm using this library with success, but I'm not able to find functions like bufferEmpty() that is found in the Adafruit_STMPE610 library.  

Without this function I end up with multiple touches each time.  Any tips would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

In case it's of use to anyone else, I solved my problem by adding a delay between calls to waitOneTouch().  Apparently it's not a buffer issue, but rather a bounce issue.

Hi! I see different effects with the shield but it's not possible to use the touch and I have to pu each call to on waitOneTouch in comentary.

Have idea ? thanks

I downloaded the required library but getting only white screen. can you please tell me what's the reason behind it?

  Are you sure? yes | no

Same as jim, getting 1/2 the screen twice...help

  Are you sure? yes | no

Just download and seem to have it kinda working... but I'm getting a split screen.  so what ever you are displaying is split and is displayed in 1/2 the screen, and then displayed again in the other 1/2... so I see your text "Groop I Implore you... " displayed twice in 1/2 the screen as it rotates through printing in landscape and portrait... thoughts? I bought this TFT http://www.ebay.com/itm/172088465109?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

When I run theSPFD5408 Graphicstest with Adafrut unit16_t identifier code uncommented, I get

If this library works %100

Then, my display is broken!!

It's all white .. have been looking for days. I'm using uno

In my opinion this library is the best set I downloaded until today.

  Are you sure? yes | no

Take care with electronical contact. In first time, I have just one blank scrren and I pushed more the pins in UNO card.
