uswickra 6:ebffa73d4f95 6 ==============
uswickra 6:ebffa73d4f95 7
uswickra 6:ebffa73d4f95 8 I was able to program LCD touch display and create a user interface for Phone and Text messaging. Two screens were created that basically
uswickra 6:ebffa73d4f95 9 involved creating a basic UI framework. However I had difficulty configuring touch input since somehow my display does not recognize touch
uswickra 6:ebffa73d4f95 10 properly even after calibration.
