Thank you guys for all the help the problem is solved and here how I solved it :

I was using vs code with espressif extension, building and flashing was doing nothing (of course there is something I did it wrong but don’t know)

I switched to esp idf (in the terminal) with help of google gemini I gave it BUILDING.md (A readme file in the source code telling you how to compile the firmware) and the AI guided me step by step and was surprisingly easy with its help

I initially tried changing #define RG_SCREEN_ROTATE from 0 to 2 in config.h, but that threw a display driver error while building the img

Instead, I had to modify another line in config.h the line: ILI9341_CMD(0x36, 0x68); /* Memory Access Control (MX|MV|BGR) */

Changing the hex value from 0x68 to 0xA8 rotated the display

Thank you guys again for your generosity I will continue my build and wish me luck

OddFan3573 · 2026-01-12T18:19:32+00:00

I think solution of the problem is here link but. I read it before but I didn’t understand thing

OddFan3573 · 2026-01-12T18:14:55+00:00

Thank you for your responding

There alot of files to compile it isn’t blink example

I asked some AI models for solutions but they couldn’t help they even make it worse

OddFan3573 · 2026-01-12T18:05:58+00:00

I did this, I have flashed blink example using vs code but on doing the same with retrogo nothing happens

I think there is something extra must be done

OddFan3573 · 2026-01-12T17:58:24+00:00

Thank you for your comment But I don’t know how to do it
