Not working on Raspberry Pi OS Bookworm
I tried it on TFT 5" LCD with resistive touch attached on Raspberry Pi 3 B+ working on Raspberry Pi OS bullseye and it works.
But for the latest version of Pi OS "Bookworm" it is not working. The LCD goes black with no desktop and even rolling back or uninstalling the library or selecting the HDMI output using sudo ./LCD-hdmi doesn't work. The only solution I got was to reflash the OS on the SD Card. the settings to enable HDMI in the /boot/config also do not affect.
Please update the library to support the new OS. Thanks!
I have the same issue on Raspberry Pi 3B+ running Pi OS Bookworm. It seems that the problem is related to newly introduced Wayland environment.
Same on RPI4 with Bookwork 64 bit. Only get a blinking cursor and rotation does not work
Same for me. RPI3B with Bookworm 64bit and i only get a blinking cursor, no way to boot to the desktop
I have the same issue on RPI4B. After reboot only blinking cursor with no way to boot on desktop. Fixed after using raspi-config to switch to X11

I'm using the 3.5" screen with my Pi Zero 2 W. I was initially trying with the latest version of Bookworm 64-bit. In raspi-config, it appeared my display server was already set to X11. Either way, I selected X11, and nothing changed. So I flashed it with the latest version of Bullseye 64-bit, and it worked flawlessly. Not sure what the issue was. Maybe I'll try the Bookworm version one more time. Thank you for the advice on X11 either way!!
I installed "Raspberry Pi OS (64-bit)" (bookworm) using Raspberry Pie Imager v1.8.1 on my Raspberry Pi 4 and to my surprise, my 4" MPI4008 display came to life on first boot without any modification necessary. I don't have touch available but the screen is working fine as is.
I switch to X but still doesn't work

it works, but the screen is very big and when I change the screen resolution in sudo raspi-config, the screen remains the same even though the resolution size changes, any suggestions?
I saw another problem during installation.
The system date in LCD5-show does not work correctly. The script reads uname -v and extracts year from it. Then, if it's less than 2017, some changes are made (not sure what exactly).
Here how uname looks in bookworm:
root@sx:~# uname -v
#1 SMP PREEMPT Debian 1:6.1.63-1+rpt1 (2023-11-24)
root@sx:~# cat /etc/issue
Raspbian GNU/Linux 12 \n \l
And here is how it looked before:
root@s4:~# uname -v
#1642 SMP PREEMPT Mon Apr 3 17:24:16 BST 2023
root@s4:~# cat /etc/issue
Raspbian GNU/Linux 11 \n \l
The bookworm's year is detected incorrectly it seems.
Hello, I have raspberry 3B+ with 5" resistive. Hdmi signal ok with large icons, but I have no response from touch
Waveshare 5 inch HDMI LCD works fine under Bullseye but dies during boot of Bookworm on Raspberry pi 3B+. Answer from Waveshare is that the version 2 of the 5 inch HDMI LCD does not work with Bookworm. The say that you need their version 3.1 but they report still touch problems even with this version.
Hi ALL,
You can try to test 2023-10-10-raspios-bookworm-armhf.img, download it at the following address.
wget https://downloads.raspberrypi.org/raspios_armhf/images/raspios_armhf-2023-10-10/2023-10-10-raspios-bookworm-armhf.img.xz
sudo rm -rf LCD-show git clone https://github.com/goodtft/LCD-show.git chmod -R 755 LCD-show cd LCD-show/ sudo ./MPI4008-show
[!NOTE] This method has only been tested on a 32-bit system (2023-10-10-raspios-bookworm-armhf.img) on Raspberry Pi 4B/4B+ with 4inch HDMI Display-C
[!WARNING] If you update the Raspberry Pi OS, the problem still appears, remember not to update the system.

Thank you for the suggestion. I tested 2023-10-10-raspios-bookworm-armhf.img with sudo ./LCD5-show. Prepared the SD card on a headless Pi 3B+ and then booted the SD card on a Pi 3B+ with the Waveshare 5" HDMI LCD. The Pi booted with the Raspberry welcome screen but after that it remained black with a fast blinking cursor. SSH into the PI worked and I installed Conky. That opened an X-window on the laptop but the Conky window remained black also.
See my last couple of posts in issue: https://github.com/goodtft/LCD-show/issues/369
