    FAQ

    • Why is the display normal but not sensitive to touch?

      Try installing an older Raspberry Pi system such as Debian 10 (Buster). Set system Resolution: 800*480.(The new version of the product has solved this problem.)

    • Is this a dream? or did i just find a non official dsi screen? exactly what i needed for my project))

      well, currently it's on "hardware collection" stage, but im going to build a pi3b umpc based on the nintendo dsi xl case, and i want it to look (when closed) as close to the original as possible (a.k. sleeper).
      and if everything will be as ive expected, then, in future, ill upgrade to a new case and a compute module with a custom pcb

    • The sensitivity and response of the touchscreen is not so good after it is connected to Raspberry Pi. How to solve it?

      A: Please check Raspberry Pi’s power. The current of the touchscreen should be at least 1.5A during its work.

      B: Please check the resolution configuration. Refer to Raspberry Pi tutorial for details.
