Hello i just want to recommend a non BW 3.5 " Screen that i have been using in my last 4 GBZ Builds, ( 8 builds in total :D ) this screen requires no modification and has a better picture then the first 4 BW Screens I received in the past, the link is below, i hope this helps eliminate the headaches and frustrations.

Please post if you have used this screen in the past, have a good day.

UPDATE : 11-07-17 The seller may be using a different supplier, a member in the forums received a different screen and control board from them different then the one I posted as working out the box with no modification needed, please be advised that you may not receive the same screen and control board as the one I mentioned in this post and you may need to modify it to 5v.

Out of the last 4 orders I placed with them they have sent me the same screen with green control board like the one in the pic I posted, I don't understand why you received a different one, I'm guessing its a different batch or different supplier, I will updated this post, thanks for sharing.
