Hello,
I have also tried landscape and didn’t find a way to get it in Landscape.
Another problem: I have the version with battery and tried to get battery reporting running, without success.
I also found another driver version for JC8012P4A1 collected from here (ESP32-P4 development board - #44 by KrX) that also works with rotation (some jd9365 driver) but I’m waiting for an official version to appear. I don’t want to start building a dashboard and after an update see that the video driver is no longer compatible with the new update
sensor:
- platform: adc
name: "Battery voltage"
pin: GPIO52
update_interval: 30s
attenuation: 12dB
samples: 10
Yes, you can get it now. It features a voltage divider circuit, where GPIO52≈1.8V indicates low battery, and GPIO52≈2.43V indicates full charge.
I’m also waiting for the addition of the rotation feature to start building.
I managed to turn it 90 degrees and make it functional, with a combination of several sources.

Can someone tell me which connector is used for the UART?
Anyone got the camera working with esphome ?
Thank you for sharing the solution, it works perfectly for me!
Huge thanks to everyone who shared their configurations here: your insights were instrumental in helping me finish my Weather Dashboard this week!
I wanted to take the time to share back my project in case it helps or inspires others!

That screen looks amazing! Great work. I am inspired 
I see you have the screen rotated 90 degrees. In my experience this causes performance issues with MIPI-DSI displays. Does it get a little laggy? I am working on a way to use the build in PPA (2D graphics accelerator) to do rotation.
I haven’t compared landscape vs portrait performance, I had no idea rotation was done in software mode right now. I did notice that page animations were choppy so I removed those. Page transitions are relatively fast now. Also, since I don’t have any widgets it’s kind of hard to gauge responsiveness. Using the PPA seems like the way to go with this board though. I’m looking forward to trying that out!
great job! it looks cool and it is cool
Hi, I’m looking for a little help. I’ve been using Guition displays in smaller sizes and decided to try this version, JC8012P4A1. I’ve tried all the configs in this post and on GitHub, and for the most part everything is fine. I’m super happy with the screen quality at such a cheap price range (I’m using it in landscape).
The only issue I have, and wanted to see if anyone else has come across it, is that if I tap the same place on the screen while watching the logs, about 85% of the time I get the same coordinates, but then randomly the other 15% are totally different, sometimes even acting as though I’ve pressed another button.
I’m not sure whether to return it for a replacement to see if I get the same results, or try the same size screen from another manufacturer.
Edit: After some basic calculations, the random coordinates match the positions for portrait mode, suggesting that screen rotation isn’t working correctly.
Zkoušel jsem různou konfiguraci v chip pro mikrofon jc8012p4a1c_i_w_y ES7210 ale jedině kam jsem se dostal je :

Has anyone been able to access the SD card slot to save and read data?
Just added info: https://www.aliexpress.com/s/wiki-ssr/article/esp32-display-panel
Looks awesome! How are you mounting it to the wall?
Anyone who might be "struggling" with this, please take a look at EspControl — No-Code Smart Home Touch Controller
It's using ESPHome but with a lot of features adding to it to allow for no-code creating and managing your (and some other) screens.
Used it on my 10.1" and setup was flawless.
Im looking for the same thing... Trying to interface another ESP32 w/ tx/rx....
I found this for this exact display:
- The Main External Hardware UART Header
Look closely at the silkscreen on the back of the PCB module. There is a dedicated multi-pin physical connector labeled UART or IO / UART.
- The Pins: It exposes GND, 3V3, TX, and RX.
- GPIO 37: Dedicated to UART0 RX.
- GPIO 38: Dedicated to UART0 TX.
but no matter what I try,
[15:09:02.220][I][uart_ui_tx:157]: Display: holding UI cmd 1.00 for UART (550ms
and on the external ESP32
[15:10:16.542][W][uart_rx_probe:248]: rx_ui_cmd: no state yet (no valid frame from display — check TX/RX/GND, pin swap)
So I'm sending the command, but it's not getting to the remote ESP. I had this working perfectly w/ a different (but similar) display. I think its just a matter of figuring out WHERE these GPIO's physically are and what numbers they are...
UPDATE:
mystery solved:
esphome:
platformio_options:
build_flags:
- -D CORE_DEBUG_LEVEL=0 # Disables Espressif low-level framework debug text
- -D ARDUINO_USB_CDC_ON_BOOT=0
logger:
baud_rate: 0
hardware_uart: USB_SERIAL_JTAG #<- NOT UART0!!!!
level: DEBUG
# Now you can safely define your sensor's UART bus
uart:
- id: sensor_uart_bus
tx_pin: GPIO37
rx_pin: GPIO38
baud_rate: 9600
I hope this helps someone else!
On board SD card slot unusable due to GPIO conflicts. Added external SD slot using GPIOs 28-34 via EXTEND2 connector.
Hi, for those who want to start with an ESPhome project here is some code that works on this display, tested on Core version 2026.6.0, Supervisor 2026.05.1, Operating System 17.3, Frontend 20260527.4, ESPHome 2026.5.3.
