Hello everyone. I am trying to make a game console with st7735s screen using raspberry pi pico. But the screen looks black and white. I did not have any problems when I used st7735. But it is hard to find st7735 in my country and the prices are high. st7735s is a price performance product. How can I solve this problem? ---

I’m _really_ not sure about raspberry pi, but here’s what I found: [Could be configuration of connections or a settings error](https://forums.raspberrypi.com/viewtopic.php?t=227115) [Same error case as above, seems to be a running issue with older or cheaper models](https://forums.raspberrypi.com/viewtopic.php?t=5771) [Most likely this setting has been changed](https://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/82080/turn-on-raspberry-pi-3b-monochrome-display-output) ![IMG_5355](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/3X/8/4/8496b17d93fcff0b9a128996e48b80f5e9d18418.jpeg) And that’s just how to change the file but you probably already knew that! Any more details would also be appreciated! ---

- some say it could also be an unstable power source or using the wrong driver By black and white, do you mean grayscale, just black and white, or a full solid screen or black or white? ---

thank you for responsing. The results you suggested are related to raspberry pi. But Im using raspberry pi pico. The screen looks like this: ![st7735s](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/3X/a/6/a666d093ddad7b43320c1f03171d85ffad428f94.jpeg) ---

Hmm… have you followed the steps [Here](https://forum.makecode.com/t/diy-arcade-console-with-rp2040-pico/22969) correctly? ---

yes. I have done this before with st7735 and ili9341 screens. Both of them work. I can’t do this with st7735s screen. There is an image but it is black and white. It seems like a little touch is needed. But what is that? I don’t know. I reviewed the source files in makecode arcade. I saw that the ili9341.h and st7735.h screen libraries were included in the screen.cpp file. If there was a st7735s.h library, this problem would be solved. But the files are locked. Cannot be edited.
