Not able to get ST7789 running

[cyberjunkiefr]

Hello, I've just got a new LilyGo-T-Display-s2. As Firmware I've loaded the micropython firmware found on MicroPython.con ESP32-S2 port (GENERIC_S2-20211212-unstable-v1.17-231-g0892ebe09.bin) Everything is working fine for micropython, no issues there. I took an example program for testing the ST7789 and adapted it for my board and micropython. The program is running without any errors, I can see the backlight coming on, but the display isn't showinf anything, Some where I must have made a mistake in the pins for the display (SoftSPI), but I just can't figure it out. Maybe somebody can help. here's the progam I use:

import random import machine from machine import Pin, SPI, SoftSPI import st7789py as st7789 import time backlight = Pin(33, Pin.OUT) backlight.value(1)

spi = SPI(1, baudrate=40000000, polarity=1, sck=Pin(36), mosi=Pin(35), miso=Pin(37))

spi = SoftSPI(baudrate=500000, sck=Pin(36), mosi=Pin(35), miso=Pin(37)) display = st7789.ST7789( spi, 240, 240, reset=machine.Pin(38, Pin.OUT), dc=machine.Pin(37, Pin.OUT), ) display.init() while True: display.fill( st7789.color565( random.getrandbits(8), random.getrandbits(8), random.getrandbits(8), ), )

Pause 2 seconds.

time.sleep(2)

I'm thankfull for any support I can get.

Managed to make it work.
