I"ve been looking around for a small HDMI LCD screen to use as a seconday screen with Windows and it took a few months of research on and off before deciding on the Elecrow 5" HDMI monitor. For the most part, it took me a while because a lot of reviews here and on other sites were primarily about use and config with Raspberry Pi.
Usually when you see the resolution 800x480 you think how bad that looks when your PC doesn"t have the right drivers installed and it looks blocky. I know it"s all relative and about DPI but once I had it all connected and tested it was sharp and clear, almost HD. I wish I had bought one sooner as it is exactly what I was looking for having tried a Lilliput monitor.
As I"m using this with Windows, I"ve not needed to look through the included driver utility disc and not tried the resistive touchscreen so I can"t comment on those. Windows just detects it as a second display and lets me extend my desktop. No drivers needed. The box contains the LCD screen, a HDMI bridge connector that neatly connects the HDMI socket on the top of the screen to the HDMI socket on the Raspberry Pi when mounted together. Standoffs for mounting are also supplied plus a plastic stylus.
+ Runs off a single micro USB (socket also at the top next to HDMI socket) connected to PC USB so no additional external power adapters or sockets needed. It powers down whenever my PC is scheduled to power down so no lingering standby. Some motherboard USB ports do still continue to supply power for charging devices so your experience may differ.
- The only negative I can think of is the availability or lack of screen cases with cutouts to suit the position of the HDMI and USB sockets on this. The Elecrow has its HDMI and USB socket at the top edge of screen and nearly all cases I have looked at are designed for screens with HDMI and USB on the right edge. I"ve had to import one from China that had the cutouts for this screen. Took about 2 weeks to arrive. Wish I"d have ordered two cases at the same time to avoid the wait as I"m impressed with the clarity of Elecrow I hope to buy another one in near future.
The RPi LCD can be driven in two ways: Method 1. install driver to your Raspbian OS. Method 2. use the Ready-to-use image file of which LCD driver was pre-installed.
3) Connect the TF card to the Raspberry Pi, start the Raspberry Pi. The LCD will display after booting up, and then log in to the Raspberry Pi terminal,(You may need to connect a keyboard and HDMI LCD to Pi for driver installing, or log in remotely with SSH)
1. Executing apt-get upgrade will cause the LCD to fail to work properly. In this case, you need to edit the config.txt file in the SD card and delete this sentence: dtoverlay=ads7846.
This LCD can be calibrated through the xinput-calibrator program. Note: The Raspberry Pi must be connected to the network, or else the program won"t be successfully installed.
7inch HDMI LCD(C) supports various systems like Raspberry Pi, Banana Pi, Banana Pro, and BB Black to provide Lubuntu, Raspbian, and Angstrom images with a high resolution of 1024×600 and a Capacitive Touch Screen. Besides, it upgrades to an IPS screen with a larger visible angle and more clear display effect. Broadly you can apply it to raspberry pi, HDMI display screen, and other mini PC or even computer displays. If you gonna use it on raspberry pi zero and BB Black, you need to buy HDMI connect wire for the use and for raspberry pi zero you also need to buy A USB type A micro cable. Matched with raspberry pi, it supports raspbian, ubuntu to do single touch without touch, and while as A PC display, it supports Windows 10 / 8.1 / 8 / 7 to do the five-point touch without drive. For the Windows 10/8.1/8 OS, the touch screen supports multi-touch up to 10 points. For some Windows 7 OS, the touch screen supports single touch only. When working with Raspberry Pi, you should set the resolution of the LCD by yourself, or else the LCD screen will not work. When working with Beagle bone, this LCD module is used for display only so you can program the latest Angstrom image file to the board directly without any change. The BeagleBone will read the display parameters of the 7-inch HDMI displayer and set the resolution to 800*480 automatically.

The HTT Displays are plug and play Embedded HDMI HMI TFT display with a USB touch screen interface. The resistive, capacitive, or non-touch modules are compatible with a wide range of systems including: Raspberry Pi, Windows, Linux, Asus Tinker Board and BeagleBone. From the hobbyist to the high volume industrial application, the HTT Series was designed to satisfy a wide range of customer application requirements.
A number of people have used a Motorola Atrix Lapdock to add a screen and keyboard with trackpad to RasPi, in essence building a RasPi-based laptop computer. Lapdock is a very clever idea: you plug your Atrix smart phone into Lapdock and it gives you an 11.6" 1366 x 768 HDMI monitor with speakers, a keyboard with trackpad, two USB ports, and a large enough battery for roughly 5 hours of use. The smart phone acts as a motherboard with "good enough" performance. The advantage over a separate laptop or desktop computer is that you have one computing device so you don"t need to transfer files between your phone and your desk/laptop.
Unfortunately for Motorola, Lapdock was not successful (probably because of its US$500 list price) and Motorola discontinued it and sold remaining stock at deep discounts, with many units selling for US$50-100. This makes it a very attractive way to add a modest size HDMI screen to RasPi, with a keyboard/trackpad and rechargeable battery power thrown in for free.
Lapdock has two connectors that plug into an Atrix phone: a Micro HDMI D plug for carrying video and sound, and a Micro USB plug for charging the phone and connecting to the Lapdock"s internal USB hub, which talks to the Lapdock keyboard, trackpad, and two USB ports. With suitable cables and adapters, these two plugs can be connected to RasPi"s full-size HDMI connector and one of RasPi"s full-size USB A ports.
The hardest part about connecting Lapdock is getting the cables and adapters. Most HDMI and USB cables are designed to plug into jacks, whereas the Lapdock has plugs so the cables/adapters must have Micro HDMI and Micro USB female connections. These are unusual cables and adapters, so check the links.
Lapdock uses the HDMI plug to tell if a phone is plugged in by seeing if the HDMI DDC/CEC ground pin is pulled low. If it"s not, Lapdock is powered off. As soon as you plug in a phone or RasPi, all the grounds short together and Lapdock powers itself on. However, it only does this if the HDMI cable actually connects the DDC/CEC ground line. Many cheap HDMI cables do not include the individual ground lines, and rely on a foil shield connected to the outer shells on both ends. Such a cable will not work with an unmodified Lapdock. There is a detailed "blog entry on the subject at element14: Raspberry Pi Lapdock HDMI cable work-around. The "blog describes a side-benefit of this feature: you can add a small power switch to Lapdock so you can leave RasPi attached all the time without draining the battery.
When you do not connect a HDMI monitor, the GPU in the PI will simply rescale (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_scaling) anything that would have appeared on the HDMI screen to a resolution suitable for the TV standard chosen, (PAL or NTSC) and outputs it as a composite video signal.
The Broadcom BCM2835 only provides HDMI output and composite output. RGB and other signals needed by RGB, S-VIDEO or VGA connectors are however not provided, and the R-PI also isn"t designed to power an unpowered converter box.
Note that any conversion hardware that converts HDMI/DVI-D signals to VGA (or DVI-A) signals may come with either an external PSU, or expects power can be drawn from the HDMI port. In the latter case the device may initially appear to work, but there will be a problem, as the HDMI specs only provide in a maximum of 50mA (@ 5 Volt) from the HDMI port, but all of these adapters try to draw much more, up-to 500mA, in case of the R-PI there is a limit of 200mA that can be drawn safely, as 200mA is the limit for the BAT54 diode (D1) on the board. Any HDMI to VGA adapter without external PSU might work for a time, but then burn out D1, therefore Do not use HDMI converters powered by the HDMI port!
Alternatively, it may be possible to design an expansion board that plugs into the LCD headers on the R.Pi. Here is something similar for Beagleboard:
AdvaBoard RPi1: Raspberry Pi multifunction extension board, incl. an interface and software for 3.2"/5"/7" 16-bit parallel TFT-displays incl. touchscreen with up to 50 frames/s (3.2", 320x240)
Texy"s 2.8" TFT + Touch Shield Board: HY28A-LCDB display with 320 x 240 resolution @ 10 ~ 20fps, 65536 colors, assembled and tested £24 plus postage, mounts on GPIO pins nicely matching Pi board size, or via ribbon cable
I have a 2.2" TFT-LCD and an ARM-based board(nanopi-m1) with Ubuntu-server-16.04 on it. I have a framebuffer driver named NOTRO(https://github.com/notro/fbtft) that uses fbtft support on kernel and makes my display work by this commands:
The UCTRONICS 3.5 Inch touch screen is the same size as the standard Raspberry Pi model B/B+, and well-mates with the Raspberry Pi boards. With a tiny size, vivid image, and responsive touchscreen, it is definitely ideal for portable devices and multimedia projects. It is a great replacement for a heavy and bulky HDMI monitor, keyboard, and mouse
Step1: Align the pin 1 of the edge connector between the LCD display and Raspberry pi board, connect the pin 1,2,3,4 then pin 19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26.
Attention: If you want to use the touch function, you need to download and install the driver manually refers to the instructions we provided. The driver includes the settings of the Raspbian OS resolution and touch screen support.
Attention: If you use this display without a Pi, the touch function is not available because the touch function of this display just supports the Raspbian system. Meanwhile, an extra HDMI cable also is required for the video transmission.
I just finished two solid days of work trying to get an HDMI LCD panel working with one of the inexpensive older model TFT LCD displays in a "Dual mode" configuration. There was a tremendous amount of help from this post, which got me most of the way there, but the infamous "last mile" still took me a while. I"m leaving some breadcrumbs here, as well as asking the group if anyone knows of a better way.
I am working on a device that uses a Raspberry Pi 4 as an embedded controller. For output, I need an 2K DSI LCD w/ its own HDMI adapter (Sharp LS055R1SX04, about $65 USD), as well as an inexpensive TFT LCD used for a basic touch user interface. The TFT LCD, which uses an ILI9341 LCD controller and an ads7846 touchscreen controller, can be had for about $10 USD. The Pi was flashed with the latest Raspberry Pi OS 32 bit then updated, so everything is current as of this writing (March 2021).
Initial configuration of the display worked with little issue. The HDMI adapter for the Sharp LCD works at 50 Hz only, so it requires custom timings. The TFT LCD uses the same controller chips as the original 3.5" Raspberry Pi LCD, so I was able to activate it with the rpi-display dtoverlay.
Booting with the above correctly revealed two framebuffer devices listed with ls -l /dev/fb*. The display initially showed as all white, then went all black, indicating correct initialization. However, when starting the desktop GUI, only the Sharp LCD showed any contents, and only it was listed as a device by xrandr.
Based on claims of the above not being "ideal", I experimented with various settings. If the above file is deleted entirely, xrandr reports the Sharp LCD as the sole display. If you put the above file in place, and remove all references to the Sharp LCD (including the Device, Monitor, Screen, and ServerLayouts), xrandr correctly reports the TFT LCD, but not the Sharp LCD. I left JUST the Device sections in, but xrandr failed to correctly report one of the other.
No matter what combinations I tried, I was unable to get xrandr to list both the HDMI display and the SPI display at the same time. If all parts above ARE explicitly listed in the configuration, running xrandr reports an error that the RandR extension is not loaded. Thus I was unable to use the more advanced built in layout management of X11 using the RandR extension.
Since xrandr was INOP in this configuration, I could not use xinput --map-to-output to limit touchscreen coordinates to the TFT LCD. Instead, I settled on using a combination of touch screen rotation, and input coordinate translation:
Note that the TransformationMatrix is very specific to a 1440x2560 in portrait mode with 320x240 in landscape mode to the right of the Sharp LCD. The numbers are basically:
You may be tempted to try to hack a dtoverlay that uses the ads7846 driver and specifies the x-min, x-max, etc. parameters. Don"t. I wasted a huge amount of time on this. While you can specify min/max, they apparently do NOT affect the output of that driver. The raw numbers are still reported when watching X11 input events via sudo DISPLAY=:0.0 evtest /dev/input/event0 no matter what the min/max parameters to that driver are.
My question to the group, if anyone knows, is simple: is it possible to configure a Pi4 so an SPI connected LCD can co-exist without disabling the RandR extension in X11?

With DRM/KMS X will render one "super desktop" covering all displays in their correct positions, and then tell each DRM/KMS device to display the correct bit of it. That"s how it works with dual HDMI on Pi4.
Now these SPI displays used to be driven by a driver that only exposed them as /dev/fbX nodes. They now appear to be under the tinydrm driver, so I would have expected them to show up as DRM/KMS devices. The output from modetest would be interesting to see (X can not be running when you run modetest). "xrandr --verbose" may tell you if you have vc4-(f)kms-v3d enabled. (Sorry, I don"t have one of these displays to test with)
I"m not real familiar with this stuff (I stumbled across it while I was stuck in the mud), but I assume by these results that there are two different drivers possible: fb_ili9341 which is the framebuffer version, and ili9341 which I assume is the DRM version. If I understand how this all fits together, it appears that when I select the "rpi-display" overlay, its picking the framebuffer version due to the last line in modules.alias?
which is of course a different driver. I already had a customized overlay source, so I changed it to use the mentioned "mi0283qt" driver. It did not work (my screen remains blank white). I also tried the straight ili9341 driver (with no "fb_" prefix). Both showed results from modetest, but the screen remained white.
I suspect that perhaps my pins may not be set up correctly for those drivers? The overlay sources seemed to indicate they were the same, but I don"t know if that is true.
I"m not sure if I uncovered an inconsistency in what is supposed to be in the distribution, or if in order to get this to work, I need to download and compile the drivers? I"ll keep experimenting, but I wanted to report what I found thus far.
I do note that the mi0283qt driver also appears to be a 320x240 ILI934 based panel from looking at the source. That"s also the compatible ("multi-inno,mi0283qt") referenced by notro in https://github.com/notro/tinydrm/issues/14 (different vendor prefix though). It"d be nice to know the differences.
Is it fair to say that there is more to a board than just saying it"s controlled by a an ILS9341? That seems to be the case with these multiple initialization sequences. I believe my board to be one from HiLetgo. Is it possible to create a DRM driver that functions EXACTLY like the fb_ili9341? Another possibility: for $10 USD, I could just get another board. That certainly might be easier. I"d just like to know the best way to match a board to a driver. The "brand name" ADAfruit board is $27 - almost 3 x the cost of the Hiletgo. Not super significant for a one-off, but a significant increase in unit cost.
Switching to the "multi-inno,mi0283qt" compatible and I get nothing. Reading the DT bindings, the backlight has been moved from being a GPIO property of the display to being a link to the backlight device driver, so it"s understandable that the backlight stays off.
Next, I removed my previous 99-multihead-conf file from my "/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/" and restarted the desktop manager. I opened a terminal window, entered "xrandr", and both displays listed! I thought it was solved, but at that point, my poor little Pi completely locked up. I had this same problem in the past when I was trying the various DRM driver overlays. The desktop just became very unstable.
I"ll keep the "the legacy driver is being deprecated" in the back of my head for future purposes. Maybe by the time that happens, if this configuration is still needed, someone will have taken the information in this thread and figured out the problem.
is needed for xrandr to see the display (listed as Unknown19-1 for me, presumably as X hasn"t been built with any knowledge of DRM_MODE_CONNECTOR_SPI being 19. https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest ... ode.h#L390
However it is as I suspected - we have no mouse pointer on the TFT screen, presumably as X can"t cope with one display having a cursor plane and the other not. I don"t know the best way to overcome that.
*edit*: Minor correction there. If the two displays overlap, then the mouse cursor disappears on the SPI screen. If you set them to be independent (eg "xrandr --output Unknown19-1 --right-of HDMI-1"), then X switches mode and renders the mouse cursor.
Which sounds like yours (i.e the "Unknown19-1). I got the "lock up" again, but it turns out that lock-up was actually VNC (I"ve been using that to develop, as the text on a Sharp LCD is VERY tiny to look at in desktop mode). My console was still alive, so I hooked up an actual keyboard and mouse to the Pi, and the desktop on my Sharp LCD came alive. With the above two commands you"ve discovered, I now have two desktops. Sort of...
It appears as if the upper left hand corner of my Sharp LCD desktop is mirrored on the small LCD. It"s not two independent desktops. Instead, it"s the same desktop duplicated. I suspect that is probably more X configuration than driver stuff, however.

Compatible with and can be directly inserted into all versions of raspberry PI motherboards (raspberry PI 1 generation B and Zero need additional HDMI cable)
After the installation of the LCD driver is completed, the system will restart automatically. If the LCD can be normally displayed and touched, the installation of the driver is successful
C. The retropie-rpi1_zero system cannot log in via SSH (no network port and wifi module). You need to copy the driver through the serial port. For details, see RaspberryPi Zero open serial instructions
After execution, the driver will be installed. The system will automatically restart, and the display screen will rotate 90 degrees to display and touch normally.
(" XXX-show " can be changed to the corresponding driver, and " 90 " can be changed to 0, 90, 180 and 270, respectively representing rotation angles of 0 degrees, 90 degrees, 180 degrees, 270 degrees)
