I have built my btclock and only see a C in the 6th display. none of the other displays are working. I am wondering if these came from a bad batch of epaper displays or what to do to try and debug this. I have moved them around and got the O to display. Most of them look like a QR code is on them, but it is not scannable.

Make sure the screw holes align, the WeAct displays need to populate the most left 8 pins.
The most right 2 pins (out of the 10) are not used.

Are you in our Telegram group? I think that's easier to debug together than through issues here

This was solved by soldering each pin to the display. Sorry for the waste of time. Cheers.
