I've been trying to get the PiTFT 3.5 working with the Zero W, and have been having some interesting side issues, which I think are due to the custom kernel you guys are using.
When I install the custom image from here (https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-pit ... sy-install), everything boots up fine, and the PiTFT works, but the built in Wifi and Bluetooth adaptors are not found.

I have also tested the latest Raspbian image too to confirm that the wifi/bt interfaces work on my Zero W, and they do. I tried updating the latest image from RaspberryPi.org manually using:
Code: Select all
curl -SLs https://apt.adafruit.com/add-pin | sudo bash
sudo apt-get install -y raspberrypi-bootloader adafruit-pitft-helper raspberrypi-kernel
sudo adafruit-pitft-helper -t 35r
I'm guessing the custom image + the manual kernel updates are doing something not compatible with the Zero W?
Thanks for taking the time to read this, any help would be great.
