On July I've tested a first version of 2.4" TFT touchscreen shield for Arduino.
Now, I've tested a second version, but it was different ( probably use a different display driver) and need an update on firmware source.
but I made some adjustment in order to function correctly with this TFT display.
To adjust the colour issue , I've added just one line/command on "SPFD5408_Adafruit_TFTLCD" library.
Below, you can find the example source file "spfd5408_tftpaint" by Jao Lopes, contained in the library.
I function perfectly, just the touch had a wrong "X" & "Y" axis value.
I made a few adjustment to fix it . See below higlighted in red.
