Same here. Are you also using the plug-in 5110 like the one sold on Sainsmart? http://www.sainsmart.com/sainsmart-pcd8544-shield-ram-8448-mini-lcd-display-84-48-for-raspberry-pi-b-b.html
nah, I made the circuit on my own. but it works with the Adafruit library so the wiring is okay and the wiring for this library is same - so i dont think this is a HW issue.
My Circuit so far:
Hi, There are a number of things you should check:
Ok, I have merged the latest wiringPi code (see https://github.com/rm-hull/wiringPi/commit/ce2c58ac6654b8045c657f4cdc2028bfee3bc77c) - can you try pulling the wiringPi again, rebuilding it, and trying again?
Thanks, but I see the same behavior, no errors but nothing's happening running an example after install.
BTW Looks like that circuit is the one in the documentation README? What do the buttons do? Does this library require that wiring because mine is just a PCB with LCD, that plugs in to the pi pins.
nah the buttons arent needed for running the examples, they are just there for my project - I needed buttons and other sensors and RTC etc.
See this: http://github.com/zaidpirwani/piMon Currently using the Adafruit LCD Library - will try the changes later today and report back.
A lot of changes have been made to this library. Please test with the latest and create a new issue if there's still a problem.
Hi, I am trying different libraries, Adafruit one (https://learn.adafruit.com/nokia-5110-3310-lcd-python-library/overview) and yours.
when I run any example, the screen is blank and afterwards the Adafruit examples also show blank screen until I restart the screen - maybe something to do with the contrast setting, but am stuck.?
Please HELP, thanks.
