Hello. I need help. My card died and I had to install Volumio again. I have an 11.9 inch DSI screen. Volumio has been rebuilt and the Touch Display 3.3.5 plug-in is the only one that can be installed.
Please help me run this display. Step by step. He’s scheming and nothing. I have downloaded the waveshare V1 driver.
As first reflash your SD and DON’T install drivers.
When you’ve setup Volumio enable teat and perform an OTA.
Please read through this topic, I believe the solutions is posted by @Darnur 4 posts back.
I recommend to install version 3.3.8 or you will have serious problems if you should update the plugin somewhen - basically, you will have to be prepared to reinstall Volumio then.
If you can’t install newer versions of the plugin than 3.3.5 this indicates that not all software package the plugin requires succeeded to download - just that versions younger than 3.3.5 detect such failures and abort their installation. Most often a network issue is the reason for failing downloads and changing the repository mirror as described here may help.
I think it is very likely that currently there are software packages missing and the plugin can’t work because of that.
Should you continue to have problems please provide infomation on the Volumio version and the Pi model you use.

I installed the latest Touch Display plug-in, but the screen is still black? The latest system 3.616 and Touch Display 3.3.8
What is your Pi model?
Please post the output of
cat /boot/userconfig.txt
Pi4
Touch Display rotation setting below: do not alter
display_lcd_rotate=1
display_hdmi_rotate=1volumio@volumio:~$
Add
dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d
dtoverlay=vc4-kms-dsi-waveshare-panel,11_9_inch
to “/boot/userconfig.txt” and reboot.
The userconfig file looks like this:
Touch Display rotation setting below: do not alter
display_lcd_rotate=3
display_hdmi_rotate=3
dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d
dtoverlay=vc4-kms-dsi-waveshare-panel,11_9_inch
The screen now displays a blurry image. What else can I do?
I don’t understand? Any additional registry entry?
You mean in “/boot/userconfig.txt”? No. At least not at the moment. 
From post #261:
The post suggests to enable test mode for Volumio and update Volumio to a beta/test version with a fixed driver for your display.
P.S. To enable Volumio’s “test mode” go to: http://{yourvolumioaddress}/dev and click the “True” button below “Test Mode”.
The screen started displaying the image, but it is rotated 90 degrees. Setting the orientation in the Touch Display plug-in does not help
Display rotation set on the Touch Display’s config page currently does not work when using “dtoverlay=vc4-kms-…”.
Try modifying dtoverlay=vc4-kms-dsi-waveshare-panel,11_9_inch in “/boot/userconfig.txt” so it reads
dtoverlay=vc4-kms-dsi-waveshare-panel,11_9_inch,rotation=270
and reboot.
dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d
dtoverlay=vc4-kms-dsi-waveshare-panel,11_9_inch,rotation=270
This is what the userconfig file should look like after modification?
Yes. You just have to add the part
,rotation=270
to the current
dtoverlay=vc4-kms-dsi-waveshare-panel,11_9_inch
entry…
I enter as you said, but the screen is still rotated??? Sorry
You are losing patience? Sorry for that…
Additionally, even though I enter the values 0.90.180.270, the screen does not change orientation. Of course, thank you very much for your time and advice. But I’ve been sitting for 10 hours to get this display working properly
Please help me turn this screen around - please
