Hi, running the example I can't see custom char an all my display type (1602 and 2004). Is there any suggestion? Dome

Hi @dobova86, seems to be valid. I can kind of fix the issue by calling lcd.print(chr(0)) twice. Maybe needs some more investigations. Could also be a timing issue as it does not happen when I call the function in the repl

I've been able to print custom char sending lcd.set_cursor(col=0, row=0) before print. May be some memory state need to be reset before lcd.print( chr(x)).

I have created PR with a fix that works for me.

Came here to report the same. I can confirm that the PR works as expected.
