Hi all
I"m 5 days deep in a drama getting a ADS7846 Touchscreen XPT2046 (2026 on the chip) working with a Raspberry Pi 3.
It's been working fine for years... then something went awry - had to reload the OS, and now the best I can get it to do is show the splash screen (with the logo), and then it goes to a black screen with a cursor in the corner. I think what happened is that I bought it from Aliexpress - who possibly provided a link to the drivers, so I installed them and it ran without a problem. That info is now long-gone, so I suspect it might be a "not quite the right driver" error, although I could be wrong about that too.
Details
The best I can manage is using this:
It gets the splash screen, but after that it stops.
Presumably I will need to give some diagnostic information.... if someone can let me know what, then I can certainly oblige. I have SSH and HDMI is working fine.
I have been trying to get Claude.IO to sort it out, but am beginning to find that this might be a fairly elaborate way of driving myself completely insane. Who knew.
