FIXED THE PROBLEM.
The necessary library was not TFT_v2/TFT_v2.h but it was SeeedTFTv2/TFTv2.h.
seeedstudio.com/wiki/File:Seeed_TFT_v2.0.zip
This TFTv2.h has that same 6 integer input as was used in TFT version 1.0. Now it is displaying what it is supposed to.
However the time and date doesn’t seem to work somehow… haven’t tried making a call or sending text.
