Volumio with 3.5" TFT Touch Screen (GPIO) RPi 3B+

siod · May 19, 2021, 5:19pm

Hi Guys,

can you help me with my display? None of the drivers or tutorials worked yet…

PS I´m trying to get it work on a RPi 1 B !

gvolt · May 19, 2021, 5:21pm

Sorry, but I guess your Pi will be to weak anyway.

siod · May 19, 2021, 5:25pm

Ok, why? Volumio runs flawless…

gvolt · May 19, 2021, 5:29pm

Yes, for a headless system it suffices. But if you want to run a local display you need the Touch Display plugin which in turn installls an xserver and chromium on your Volumio system. And they need some power

siod · May 19, 2021, 5:43pm

mmh okay.

Anyway, an RPi4 is on it´s way to me and should arrive in the next days. So, if anyone has experience with this kind of display any help is appreciated!

gvolt · May 19, 2021, 6:04pm

That (Pi4) should work.

And if you want to spend the time working it out on the Pi1B you may try the instructions here, but also have a look at the conclusion regarding a Pi2.

siod · May 21, 2021, 12:45pm

Today my Pi 4 arrived! I went through the whole tutorial from here Volumio with 3.5" TFT Touch Screen (GPIO) RPi 3B+ - #18 by Depace_Shrestha but the screen stays white

Also: the complete system is frozen now…

edit: after some power off / power on it has become alive again. Display still white…

edit2: nope, freezes again after a few minutes

gvolt · May 21, 2021, 1:00pm

Please provide the manufacturer and the exact model name of the display.

siod · May 21, 2021, 1:18pm

Could post the link to the vendor’s page?

Is the picture you posted above taken from your display?

As your system freezes, I recommed to flash a Volumio again. After first boot wait for some minutes so the data partition can expand.

If the display should be a Waveshare 3.5inch RPi LCD (A) or a clone try these instructions. Don’t install lightdm.

It could be necessary to modify “/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/99-fbturbo.conf” by changing

Option          "fbdev" "/dev/fb0"

to

Option          "fbdev" "/dev/fb1"

If the “99-fbturbo.conf” should be missing you may download it

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/goodtft/LCD-show/master/usr/99-fbturbo.conf

and copy it to “/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d”

sudo cp 99-fbturbo.conf /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/99-fbturbo.conf

Ok guys, I started all over: Now usin a brand new RPi 4 + a brand new Display: 3,5" Display für Raspberry Pi mit resistivem Touchscreen jetzt günstig kaufen | BerryBase

I followed the gdrive step by step guide again (first a skipped lightdm installation, after reboot and no succes I installed it), but still only a white screen
I also tried your suggestion @gvolt , no success.

gvolt · May 27, 2021, 5:51pm

Please show me the results of

cat /boot/config.txt

cat /boot/userconfig.txt

ls -al /boot/overlays

ls -al /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d

ls -al /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d

unfortunately I cannot give you this info right now, the device seems to be completely frozen (again). I´ll try to install everything again on a fresh image and hope it will not freeze again. I will report back…

gvolt · May 28, 2021, 6:51am

After installing a fresh Volumio image let it rest for 10 minutes after the first boot. Before installing anything Display related I suggest you come back and we try step by step then.

siod · May 28, 2021, 8:34am

ok. little Update:

fresh image
waited 15 minutes after first boot
started installation of Touch plugin
after a while it did not confirm installation, plugin wasn´t installed
decided to make a reboot initiated fro m webGUI
cannot connect via ethernet cable anymore (device not found)
can connect through wifi and volumio hotspot
can confirm Touch Display Plugin is installed!
turned it on (it´s confirming “active”)
connected to my wifi network
ethernet connection working again (o0 !)
Wifi connection working

Now I will try the gdrive guide again and will do a reboot after every installation

Is the display working?

IMHO “/boot/config.txt” is lacking

dtparam=spi=on

which probably has to be placed before “dtoverlay=tft35a:rotate=270”.

siod · May 28, 2021, 9:13am

I can confim the display is working now! I only have problems with the calibration: when touching the display and moving left the mouse moves up, when moving right the mouse moves down, when moving up the mouse moves left and when moving down the mouse moves right…

gvolt · May 28, 2021, 9:32am

Please post the result of

cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/99-calibration.conf

I would like to report, but volumio isn´t booting up anymore. What I noticed: when my ethernet cable is plugged in when the system is booting up, it´s going to crash my whole home network!

I´ll keep trying to get the system running again and report back…

edit: ok, here the output:

Try if

Option "SwapAxes" "0"

helps.
