Bought a cheap LCD form china (mcufriend, pictured below) and I cant understand which pin is which to use it with the SPI interface (starting to get worried that I can't use it), I've figured out this much:
- LCD_RST; reset pin
- LCD_CS; chip select
- LCD_RS;
- LCD_WR;
- LCD_RD;
Which of those is MOSI, SCK, DC? Trying to use it with a ESP8266 (ESP-12).

You can't use that TFT screen with SPI. The SPI interface (SD_DI
, SD_DO
, SC_SCK
and SD_SS
) is for the SD card slot only.
All the pins starting LCD_
are the 8-bit parallel ("8080" style) interface for controlling the TFT screen.
