Smartxx LCD does not work

Hey guys,

I made a probe on LCD 2x16 and 4x20.
I set the chip option.
Set the default in xbmc.

I can set the screen's brightness.

Unfortunately, no subtitles ...
Any ideas?

I installed the LCD chip according to this scheme:

your soldering is not really that good, turn the temp down as it is melting the insulation and retracting from the solder pad leaving a lot of exposed wire and possibly wicking the solder up the wire which will leave it brittle.

i'd double check your connections are in the correct spots, does it work in the smartxx os on boot? or just not at all?
