hi! i think everyone have some broken unworkable mobil phone in their shelfs ... so actually i have a broken 3310 LCD whit controlling/driver IC , is there any way to controll it whit a PC? play anim gifs and other cool things it would really rocks regards, sOl oh and i found some documentation here: http://www.myplace.nu/mp3/nokialcd.htm
Yes there is... But, nothing has been finalized with the software or with a wiring diagram. Check it out.. Liquid MP3
yea i saw that , also i saw this lcd workin whit that so ive requested that's wiring schematic.... also wrote an email to the guy... ill post the results if i get any answer
I have a Nokia 3310 LCD running from parallel port. You can check here for a picture and some more information: http://www.skippari.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=474
Looks like a good one Henri. Once im a bit more clued up with my electronics i want to give that a go...
Henri, I have and old 3110 will the lcd still work with the pc and is the wiring the same as in 3310 or like in 5110. Is the circuit the same or different. And when will you are going to make the drivers for these lcds ?
at last a use for all the phones i have busted. Will have to give this a go when i eventualy get my new PC.
I don't know what display is in 3110 but the driver I made works with 84x48 pixel displays with PCD8544 controller. The wiring should be pretty much the same for all of them but you should find out the pinout for your display and check to make sure it's the same. I have only worked with the 8 pin 3310 display. Which lcds are you referring to ? I have already done a driver for PCD8544 that you can see in action in the picture. The driver is not yet finished but if someone wires a display and wishes to test it you can ask me for the latest version. When it's finished it will be included in the normal LCDInfo package.
Could you send it to me sdickinson (at) iinet (dot) net (dot) au I'm going to try to get an old 5110 screen going. Thanks.
Wooa! Why havent I thought about that before?! *undust a good-ol' 3310* Got to give this a try! Btw, whats the backlight possibilityes?
dunno.. you could try sticking an led behind the bare lcd, if it works and u can see the led behind it, then should be good for backlighting with an el sheet.. let me know how u go...
Looks like the backlight in the cell is just a bunch of leds... so I guess it might work! But relax... I've never done any modding before, and before I'll try this, I'm going to make a lcd monitor out of a laptop... wich looks like it may take a lifetime... but before that... I need a new computer! Patiens my son, patiens!
hehehehe yea that's what i figured, gl with the laptop monitor mod.. i have 2 lcd's here from old lappys that work, plus the lappys which are custed...
Problem is the controller for a laptop LCD makes it more expensive that just getting a LCD for your PC.
I have a NOKIA 5170I cell phone is there a way to hook that screen up also or are they all similur for connections? a diagram would be really appreciated if someone has one
OMG i have my old 3310 lying around, it went thru the washine machine (my mum didn't notice) i got a new phone now , but its time to salvige parts from my old one , i'll be following this closely
