I have purchased an all-in-one ESP32-2432S032C board (similar to the “Cheap yellow display” and I’ve been trying to get a simple HelloWorld config working. The issue I seem to be having is that I can’t get the display to show anything. From what I have found, the display that it uses is a ST7789 (found in an arduino .ino demo I found from looking around). It is a 320x240 TFT display with capacitive touch, So would be very useful to get HA integration working nicely.
From looking at the “Display Hardware” platforms, ESPHome looks to support the ST7789V, but this I don’t think is compatible with my device. I know the screen is working, as there as a demo on the device before I wrote the ESPHome config to the device.
My question is, is there any way I can get this working with an existing component, or maybe adding support for the screen manually?
I have tried using that component, but I haven’t been able to get anything to display on the screen. I will look into this some more to see if there are any settings I need to include/change…
Ok, I was hoping it would work as it used to be the higher resolution wasn’t supported with the old component in ESPHome. Maybe you can find the datasheet to help you investigate it further?
I don’t have the datasheet for the screen itself, as it was missing from the datapack I found for the device. I may have to look for it to get some info from there. Thanks.
I’ve been testing some of the demo programs to get an idea on how it works, so I might have to build something in Arduino IDE for now that connects to HA without ESPHome.
