Touchscreen drivers just don't understand how to download

Flance

So I have the driver for this screen - https://www.amazon.com/Juvtmall-Display-800%C3%97480-Function-Raspberry/dp/B072558KZ4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1539042147&sr=8-1&keywords=juvtmall+5+inch+display i just dont know how to install them.

This is a GPIO Screen

Are gpio touch screens an option? I have a 5 inch and a 3.5 inch gpio touch screen and would like to know if it would work, the 5 inch has HDMI and gpio touch, the 3.5 inch is just gpio for screen feed and and touch. Very interested to know if this would work and if so how to proceed. I am aware this is most probably a no , just asking to be sure

I also have this screen and would like to know this answer. I would happily purchase Emteria if this display can be supported as touchscreen.

DrRokko

me too please

We don't have this kind of screen at our lab, so I can't say for sure. But if there are drivers available, use them in the same way you would do it in Raspbian (with required Android adaptation). You can load modules, configure GPIO and do whatever you like.

Bovive

The drivers are located at https://github.com/goodtft/LCD-show and are installed by running the LCD5-show script. I do not know what would be required to install this on Emteria. Can you provide us with some guidance please? Thank you.

Those are not drivers, but rather script files for the screen configuration. You can check what those scripts do and apply the desired configuration manually.

Actually they aren't all scripts.and make calls for XORG

echo "need to update touch configuration"
sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-input-evdev
fi
fi
sudo mkdir /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d
sudo cp ./usr/40-libinput.conf-HDMI7B /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/40-libinput.conf
sudo reboot

Non of this is compatible with android.

Development in touch operation. I accidentally found that touching in RECOVERY mode works like a dream. Restarted from RECOVERY mode, when OS is loaded, the touch is reconnected and unreliable. Does anyone know how to resume good operation under RECOVERY for OS? Professionals can certainly solve it. This is a very high task for me.
Kalkov will certainly be able to handle it as it does in RECOVERY.

I was upgraded to the latest version - 0.6.0 but the touch quality did not change. The solution is located in RECOVERY, it works the touch as it should. The solution can only be done by anyone who wrote a program. I hope to read my post and resolve this long-awaited problem.

Funny thing is I did try manually putting in the code without the stuff that needing to be installed and it just broke android. Don’t forget you can get source files of the dev input which then could work, but I had no luck.

obero

I look forward to Kalkov's response, but he did not reply to my letter addressed to me either. He certainly knows how to solve it.

I read some comments about touch not working that good. This type of screen is not capacitive but the other type. You need to push hard to get it to work :wink:

Flance

I have a restive screen.

Flance

and I've tested it in raspbian and it works fine.

Flance

Kalkov, It's up to you fixing this issue no one is able to install the xserver-xorg-input-evdev. We'll be waiting for your response.

Flance

Maybe there is a way making this screen usb which tricks it to be compatible but there too many issues with that.

This is the script for LCD5-show made for the screen thats being used. sudo rm -rf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/40-libinput.conf sudo cp -rf ./boot/config-5.txt /boot/config.txt if [ -b /dev/mmcblk0p7 ]; then sudo cp ./usr/cmdline.txt-noobs /boot/cmdline.txt else sudo cp ./usr/cmdline.txt /boot/ fi sudo cp ./usr/inittab /etc/ sudo cp -rf ./usr/99-fbturbo.conf-HDMI /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/99-fbturbo.conf sudo mkdir /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d sudo cp -rf ./usr/99-calibration.conf-5 /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/99-calibration.conf nodeplatform=`uname -n` kernel=`uname -r` version=`uname -v` if test "$nodeplatform" = "raspberrypi";then echo "this is raspberrypi kernel" version=${version%% *} version=${version#*#} echo $version if test $version -lt 970;then echo "reboot" else echo "need to update touch configuration" sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-input-evdev sudo cp -rf /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-evdev.conf /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/45-evdev.conf echo "reboot" fi else echo "this is not raspberrypi kernel, no need to update touch configure, reboot" fi sudo reboot

I use a 19" Planar touch screen. Works with no modifications.
