Hi, I have been trying to figure out what I am doing wrong and I feel like I hit a brick wall.
I used this installation guide (https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-dpi ... stallation) and can't seem to get it working properly.
I am using the DPI TFT Kippah with touch support (https://www.adafruit.com/product/2453) and this display (https://www.adafruit.com/product/1596)
After going through the installation guide I can't get a picture to show up, the screen is white with some color lines running through it.
I saw that the guide hasn't been tested with the Pi4 so it could be a compatibility problem with the hardware or maybe with the OS I am running the recent Buster release.
If you need any other information from me let me know.
I have triple checked the ribbon cables to make sure they are connected properly and I believe they are. I will attach the image of the cables as a response for this post.

Same problem here even without the extender. It disappoints me that it has been almost a year and yet no answer is in here. Did you hear back?

Sadly I didn't hear back and couldn't figure it out. I ended up using a different display.
