I made great progress today. Allthe buttons respond, all the leds work, i got the 2.2" tft working (until i get my 3.95" screen) and it can send keys to the pc. currently, it is just a basic keypad without addional functionality.

I'm a bit disappointed with the key response though. With these tact switches i have to press pretty firm to make contact. I may have to go back to the drawing board and find some proper backlit switches maybe cherry MX (although they are pretty expensive).

Installed!

Picture taken with an ancient GoPro Hero HD because it doesn't fit in my regular camera.
