hit here,

i wish to control a big lcd "240x128" LM3229 with pic micro. iS IT POSSIBLE?

YES BENJ I AM TRYING THE SAME WAY. FLOW CODE FOR PIC MICRO DOES NOT GIVE THIS ERROR.

It is doing the same with pic30f2020 which is supported by the data sheet. The software will not switch between any micro and caution me that the target micro fil eis missin or corrupt.... can u provide me the fix for this error steve?

Thanks benj i am now able to post in v4.

Hi there,

if i need to start off with a new gsm module will i have to program the module aswell? or it comes pre programmed?
