Hey everyone!

I've been pulling my hair out in few past days trying to get the display working, I have done it in IDF v4.4 (https://github.com/KamranAghlami/T-Display-S3.git) but for some reason I can't figure it out in version 5.0, I'm a software guy with relatively limited knowledge of hardware.

Thought I'd ask here if any one has done it or has any idea why my code isn't working.
I'll copy my example code which is based on esp32's i80 display example.

Thanks in advance
