Openxenium, spi2par2019 xenium OS issue

[FlashX]

Hi everybody, i'm new here and this Will be my first post. I am new to original xbox modding, and I just recently installed an openxenium modship on my 1.6b xbox. I've also done The spi2par2019 lcd mod from ryze119. So now to my issue, when im using Xbmc and dvd2xbox lcd is working perfect, however when im booting into xenium OS lcd shows a couple of random strange looking symbols. My thoughts are that this could be due to some settings because here is the thing, first time i booted up into xbmc same thing happened where lcs showed some strange characters. And this were fixed simply by changing some settings in the xbmc lcd settings, and the reason this was happening whas due to The backlight were set by deafult to 80% and since ive done The arduino only installation (no backpack) i dont have backlight controll, so i set it to 100 percent and everything worked fine after that. So my guess is that it might be some similar issue happening in xenium OS where maybe some deafult lcd settings is causing issues and I cant find any way to change lcd settings in xenium OS, does Anyone know if its possible? Or have an idea of whats going on? Its really a small issue since its just happening in xenium OS and works perfect in every other app but it just anoys me, hope someone can help, i'd appreciate it.

It's usually the character set & timing of the particular LCD you have installed. They are all a bit different. See the PDF of your LCD to check and see it meets the HD44780 specs okay.

You might need to edit the code in the arduino to add a character set instruction for the LCD and possibly a timing delay on a few lines.

This will be specific to each type of display.

Ye, figured it out. Problem was just The contrast settings in The arduino code. As it seems, my lcd need 100% contrast, Kinda strange but works fine now thx for the reply
