Nextion Basic NX4832T035 - Generic 3.5'' HMI 480*320 Touch Display for Arduino Raspberry Pi

Has anyone been able to get this or any other Nextion display working with a SEEED board by chance? I bought a Xiao, ESP32-S3, C3, C6, MG24, and others in hopes I could get them to work. For some reason, the serial doesn’t send to the screen. I’ve been asking for help on this, but it seems like everyone is at a loss.

Been able to get it to work with a D1 Mini clone and regular ESP32s, but not the offshoots. I don’t get it.

Have tried -

  • Serial to Serial between two SEEED board, monitor prints messages just fine
  • HardwareSerial(0)
  • Putting a SEEED board in between a known working board (ESP32 or D1) and having it pass it onto the screen, which it doesn’t

I don’t want to use the library because I know this other method works, but just for some reason not with SEEED boards. Any ideas?
