2.4 tft lcd shield arduino mega 2560 not working pricelist

Even on ebay"s website it is mentioned that I can"t use 2.4" TFT LCD Shield display on attach to Arduino Mega. The problem is that I bought this shield by mistake. I want to put this shield onto Arduino Mega 2560. Is there a way to combine Mega and 2.4" Display Shield?

I have an Arduino Mega and a 2.8" Tft-Display-Shield from Adafruit. The Display is for the Arduino Uno, but the documentation says it can also be used with the Arduino Mega. Therefore it is needed to "solder three jumpers and you can use it at full speed on a Leonardo or Mega as well."

Let me join in because looks like I got exactly the same display (because it reports the same LCD_ID_readreg output) and I also can"t get it to work. Here it is for reference:

Some of you may have purchased this LCD Screen or thinking of getting one. Its a great screen for displaying images and graphics. I purchased mine for displaying sensor data from my 10 sensors on my robot via xbee (telemetry). I bought it not only out of impulse as it was very cheap but also that it was the biggest screen i could find cheaply in Australia. ($15).

This will allow you to use the screen on the arduino MEGA. In terms of the connections from the screen to the mega, just plug it in like a shield the same way as you do when connecting it to the UNO.

This module is designed to plug directly into Arduino UNO R3 (or its clone) boards. It is compatible with CH340 and Atmega16u2 version boards, as well as Mega 2560. This LCD shield may also work with other boards, but the compatibility can"t be guaranteed.

Features: 2.4 diagonal LCD TFT display Bright, 4 white-LED backlight, on by default but you can connect the transistor to a digital pin for backlight control Colorful, 18-bit 262,000 different shades 4-wire resistive touchscreen 8 bit digital interface, plus 4 control lines Uses digital pins 5-13 and analog 0-3. That means you can use digital pins 2,3 and analog 4 and 5. Pin 12 is available if not using the micro SD 5V compatible, use with 3.3V or 5V logic For Arduino UNO R3 Specifications: Size: 72 x 52 x 12 mm Weight: 33 g Package weight: 43 g Package included: 1 x 2.4 TFT LCD Shield SD Socket Touch Panel Module.

Spice up your Arduino project with a beautiful large touchscreen display shield with built in microSD card connection. This TFT display is big (5" diagonal) bright (12 white-LED backlight) and colorful 480x272 pixels with individual pixel control. As a bonus, this display has a capacitive touch panel attached on screen by default.

The shield is fully assembled, tested and ready to go. No wiring, no soldering! Simply plug it in and load up our library - you"ll have it running in under 10 minutes! Works best with any classic Arduino Mega 2560.

This display shield has a controller built into it with RAM buffering, so that almost no work is done by the microcontroller. You can connect more sensors, buttons and LEDs.

Of course, we wouldn"t just leave you with a datasheet and a "good luck!" - we"ve written a full open source graphics library at the bottom of this page that can draw pixels, lines, rectangles, circles and text. We also have a touch screen library that detects x,y and z (pressure) and example code to demonstrate all of it. The code is written for Arduino but can be easily ported to your favorite microcontroller!

If you"ve had a lot of Arduino DUEs go through your hands (or if you are just unlucky), chances are you’ve come across at least one that does not start-up properly.The symptom is simple: you power up the Arduino but it doesn’t appear to “boot”. Your code simply doesn"t start running.You might have noticed that resetting the board (by pressing the reset button) causes the board to start-up normally.The fix is simple,here is the solution.

I have got it sort of working with the below code, however it doesn"t ever clear the screen. Everything on the bottom half of the screen just prints on top of ALL the previous things that have been displayed. The top half of the screen works PERFECTLY!
