check out the UTFT.rar library at http://www.henningkarlsen.com/electronics/library.php?id=52

i have one of those displays on order, so it'll be a while before I'll be trying it out

I'm trying UTFT_Demo_128X128_Serial. I declare

UTFT myGLCD(PCF8833,8,9,10,11);

The pin connection SDA, SCL, CS, RST right? But still not display. What need to do?

That display is not officially supported by UTFT, but it might still work.

A list of the supported controllers can be found on the webpage, and all supported (and tested) displays can be found in the UTFT_Supported_display_modules_&_controllers.pdfdocument in the download.

As I said; that display is not officiallysupported, but it might still work. As I don't have one of those displays I cannot say if it works or not, therefore I cannot officially support it. While the controller chip is supported this display may use another LCD panel which requires other setup parameters than the display I wrote the code for. The only way to find out if it works is to try it :)

If you have downloaded and unpacked the library you will be able to find the file UTFT_Supported_display_modules_&_controllers.pdf. In this file you can find a list of all the displays I have tested with the library, and there are also some links til webshops there they can be bought. Which display is best for you depends on what you are going to use it for.

I have never used any OLED screens, so I cannot say anything about which type of display is best. I suppose it is something you would need to evaluate on a project by project basis.
