LCD stopped working

1

Hi there,
I used LCD sucsessfully for a while and then after an Update it stopped working.
Now I cand get something as simple as this to work:

#define BLYNK_PRINT Serial    // Comment this out to disable prints and save space
#include <ESP8266WiFi.h>
#include <BlynkSimpleEsp8266.h>

// You should get Auth Token in the Blynk App.
// Go to the Project Settings (nut icon).
char auth[] = "xxx";

WidgetLCD lcd(1);
void setup()
{
  Serial.begin(115200);
  Blynk.begin(auth, "WIFI", "PASS");

  
  while (Blynk.connect() == false) {
    // Wait until connected
  }

}

void loop()
{
  Blynk.run();
  delay(1000);
    lcd.clear();
  lcd.print(0, 1, millis());
}

I’m using ESP8266 ESP-12 and latest Android App

We did a bug during last update. It is already fixed and new release under final testing will be released today-tomorrow. Sorry for inconveniences.

Also, don’t put lcd printing in a void loop. It causes FLOOD error and your hardware gets disconnected from Blynk Server

Use SimpleTimer for things like this
