I cracked my V3 LCD and I'm looking for a replacement.

Unfortunately I don't see them available even on aliexpress anymore. Its a 51pin, 2.6", ILI9342 screen.

I've never used this site, but this seems to be it.

This is why the v3 is no longer available was the screen was at its end of life. I was lucky and got one last year for a different project.

I haven't been able to find any. I had a few sites that still had them listed but a few days after purchasing they just end up refunding me because they don't actually have them. I hadn't come across shopee before. Unfortunately it looks like you have to be in Malaysia to actually purchase from them.

Thanks for the lead!

Well, that is really bad actually. My brother has also once broken the screen on his MintyPi V3. I still remember how much of a pain in the a*s was it to find a new screen. Actually, we haven't even found one. We just got him a new MintyPi V3.

You can actually use a V3.5 screen on the V3. All you need is the V3.5 screen and V3.5 driver panel which Helder might have a few loose. Of course it'll need new 3d parts with the bezel and screen mount and I think you'll need to use the 3.5 image also.
