    Has anyone successfully connected the ospi using an usb 3g or 4g dongle?

    Also can a similar arduino based display be used with the ospi?

    I was able to connect my raspberry pi to the internet using an usb dongle, can anybody help me now to use the ip I’m getting to connect to OSPI?

    I figured it out but now I hope you guys can point me in the right direction, I would like to have the ospi display the same info the open sprinkler (arduino) does. I have 2 lcds but I would like to use this one https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01AE3MR7Q/ref=ya_aw_od_pi?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    I thank you in advance.

    The firmware doesn’t support this type of OLED yet. It does support I2C 1602 LCD (this is the same type as the fully assembled OS 2.3 / 2.3 DC uses), so it would be relatively easy to modify the firmware to extend the support to OSPi.

    Could you please point me in the right direction? I really need to get this going, I found some documents and modifications to your code on github and I got the right lcd and i2c adapter delivered today, I just dont know how to put everything together as an image or if I can just find the files and replace them. It is the work done by denisfrench.

    It would be awesome if someone had an image with thos files already integrated.

    There is one pull request that implements I2C LCD for OSPi:
    https://github.com/OpenSprinkler/OpenSprinkler-Firmware/pull/8
    I haven’t got around time to try it yet.

    The compilation process should be the same as how you compile OpenSprinkler firmware on OSPi:

    I just dont know which files to include and where to put them at. Or if I could just add them to my already installed ospi .
