1. Install MCUFRIEND_kbv library from the Library Manager, also (I think) Adafruit GFX

2. Edit [Arduino]/libraries/MCUFRIEND_kbv/MCUFRIEND_kbv.cpp, uncomment :

#define SUPPORT_8347D

Now examples such as : [Arduino]/libraries/MCUFRIEND_kbv/examples/graphictest_kbv/graphictest_kbv.ino should work.

 

For the touchscreen -

3. Open sketch [Arduino]/libraries/MCUFRIEND_kbv/examples/TouchScreen_Calibr_native/TouchScreen_Calibr_native.ino

4. Open serial monitor, 9600 baud

5. Compile/upload the sketch

6. Follow the on-screen instructions

7. Copy & paste the contents of the serial monitor

8. Edit the following lines in [Arduino]/libraries/MCUFRIEND_kbv/examples/Touch_Shield_new/Touch_Shield_new.ino

char *name = "My Lovely Shield."; //edit name of shield

const int XP=8,XM=A2,YP=A3,YM=9; //ID=0x9341

const int TS_LEFT=117,TS_RT=897,TS_TOP=76,TS_BOT=886;

9. Compile/upload and upload that.

10. Enjoy!
