Troubleshooting
---------------

The following list is compiled from past experiences and GitHub issues:
* **The displayed image displays only part of the image.** Make sure to select the correct display type as described [here](https://epdiy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/getting_started.html#selecting-a-display-type).
* **The existing image fades / darkens when updating a partial screen region.** Make sure the VCOM voltage is [calibrated](https://epdiy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/getting_started.html#calibrate-vcom) for your specific display.
* **The second third of the image is replaced with the last third.** This seems to be a timing issue we could not yet quite figure out the reason for. For a workarround or suggestions please [join the discussion](https://github.com/vroland/epdiy/issues/15).
* **The ESP does not boot correctly when external periperals are connected.** Make sure not to pull GPIO12 high during boot, as it is a strapping pin internal voltage selection (https://github.com/vroland/epdiy/issues/17).
