1.44" and 1.54" Screens do not Work

[MarkJelic]

I purchased a 1.3" screen and that works fine of course... But with my failing eyes I was hoping to have a slightly larger screen but still fit in a small Pill Box. So I also purchased this 1.44" screen off AliExpress and the screen doesn't resolve to anything legible:

Not that their documentation is great, but it seemed like it was 240 x 240 pixels and used the same driver chip.

Not urgent, since I have mine working with the 1.3"... But would be nice...

Maybe this would help you?

Ha Ha! Yes, just about to order one, actually.

And that reminds me of another reason why getting the 1.54" version would also be nice... The button layout.

The teensy wheeny buttons, especially the "joystick" on the left, really is quite terrible. That button is either painful on the thumb, of caps on it make it unreliable to use as both directions and enter button. I have one SS that is rather unusable with a button cap (cursor goes all over the place when you try to just press enter on a letter) so have to use it without which is nasty. And yes, have taken to putting a 2.5mm brass hot insert screwed to the top of it which makes it a little better, but...

If I wanted to get some development done to make those 1.54" screens to work, what kinda wording would I be putting into a Fivver ad in regards to the language the developer needs to be proficient at?
