Hey guys! after messing around with the library and the code quite a bit I got the TFT working with an Arduino Nano. I have a eBay $4 knockoff Arduino Nano and the red version of the TFT.
Pins : (TFT => Arduino)
SCK => 13 (D13),
SDA => 11 (D11),
CS => 7 (D7),
DC => 9 (D9),
RST => 8 (D8),
I also changed this line:
TFT_ILI9163C tft = TFT_ILI9163C(__CS, __DC, 23);
to
TFT_ILI9163C tft = TFT_ILI9163C(__CS, __DC, __RST);
and used
#define __RST 8
Other than those pins I just used 3v3 for power and LED (LED w/ resistor).
I hope this helps anyone who is having issues getting it working! This setup should apply exactly the same for any Arduino with the ATmega328 chips (Nano, Uno, Pro Mini etc).
Email me if you have any questions! Thanks!
