Used in Raspberry Pi Raspbian System

This guide details the installation of Raspbian on a Raspberry Pi, including formatting the Micro SD card, installing necessary drivers, and rotating the display. Follow step-by-step instructions to ensure successful setup and troubleshooting for optimal performance.

Step 1. Install the latest official mirror of various systems

  1. Download the latest Raspbian mirror from the official
  2. Use SDFormatter to format the Micro SD card
  3. Use Win32DiskImager or balenaEtcher to burn the official mirror to the Micro SD card.

Step 2. Connect with Raspberry Pi

As shown in the figure, align the LCD screen receptacle to the right and insert the pin header of the Raspberry Pi, insert the MicroSD card, connect the network cable, and connect the power supply.

Step 3. Install LCD driver on Raspberry Pi

  1. Log in to the Raspberry Pi terminal
  2. Execute the following command to obtain the LCD driver and install it

command1: sudo rm -rf LCD-show
command2: git clone https://github.com/goodtft/LCD-show.git
command3: chmod -R 755 LCD-show
command4: cd LCD-show/
command5: sudo ./MHS35-show

Step 4. Check whether the driver is installed successfully

After the LCD driver is installed, the system will automatically restart. After the startup is successful, the LCD can display and touch normally, indicating that the driver installation is successful.

Notice: This method is only for the display of the Raspberry Pi series, other displays are not applicable

  • if the driver has not been installed, please execute the following command (the Raspberry Pi needs to be connected to the Internet):

command1: sudo rm -rf LCD-show
command2: git clone https://github.com/goodtft/LCD-show.git
command3: chmod -R 755 LCD-show
command4: cd LCD-show/
command5: sudo ./MHS35-show

After the execution is completed, the driver will be installed, the system will automatically restart, and then the screen will display and touch normally. ('XXX-show 'can be changed to the corresponding driver)

  • if the driver has been installed, please execute the following command:

command1: cd LCD-show/
command2: sudo ./rotate.sh 90

After the execution is completed, the system will automatically restart, and then the display can be rotated 90 degrees and display and touch normally
('90 'can also be changed to 0, 90, 180, 270 and other values, respectively representing the rotation angle of 0 degrees, 90 degrees, 180 degrees, 270 degrees)

If you are prompted that rotate.sh cannot be found, please go back to the first step and install the latest driver

If the HDMI interface display uses Raspberry Pi 4, you need to comment out the dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-V3D in the config.txt file (the config.txt file is located in the root directory of the Micro SD card, ie /boot)
