been trying to get this working for a while now, i am beginning to think my lcd does not work or maybe i damaged it when soldering it,

should the lcd turn black or anything when power is applied?

i used bitmaniacs code and compiled it for a 16f877a but the lcd does nothing when I power up

i also have a nokia 6610 lcd if anyone has a circuit and any code to get this working?

thanks for any help
