Arduino lcd screen showing broken characters at random times - arduino

So I've been working on an arduino project for an escape room puzzle. It's essentially a bomb with a timer on an lcd screen. After all of the elements of the bomb are solved the timer stops and the lcd screen displays that the bomb has been defused and gives the group a clue to the next puzzle. 9 times out of 10 it works perfectly. But every once in a while when it is supposed to display that the bomb is defused the lcd screen just shows random broken characters. I haven't had any luck diagnosing the problem. Hoping somebody here might have an idea.

That would most likely be a an electrical issues either with your circuit of your LCD. The fact that a simple code like yours (not trying to insult you in any way) works 9/10 of times means that there is probably nothing wrong with the code (I've seen none).
For quick check, try reinstalling the IDE. That might update the Arduino libraries that get downloaded with the IDE. I doubt that it would solve the issue but that is an quick free easy way to try
I would personnaly suggest to disconnect everything, and reconnecting them. And if it doesn't work, then return that LCD and get yourself a new one.

I had the same issue when I used a non shielded 1m ribbon cable for the 16x2 LCD. The main board with the MCU had to be placed further away from the display. It showed random character for any electromagnetic interference. For example, turning on a fluorescent tube, starting an electric screwdriver, relay switches etc. Shortening the ribon cable solved the problem.
Anyway, the LCD is sensitive to electromagnetic interference. Keep it away from these sources.

ESP32-WROOM-32 PWD with millis

Beginner in Arduino and ESP-32 needs help.
Hello together,
I’m using the Pololu - VNH5019 Motor Driver Carrier to control a 12v motor with an ESP32.
In the following sketch i can speed up and speed down the ramp with delay();.
I tried to archiv the same result with millis(), but until now i could not make it.
What i am missing in my code.
Thanks in advance.
#define MOTOR_IN1 27
#define MOTOR_IN2 16
#define PWMPIN 14
#define frequency 40000
#define resolutionbit 8
const unsigned long eventInterval = 30;
unsigned long previousTime = 0;
void setup() {
pinMode(MOTOR_IN1, OUTPUT);
pinMode(MOTOR_IN2, OUTPUT);
ledcAttachPin(PWMPIN, 0); // assign the speed control PWM pin to a channel
ledcSetup(0, frequency, resolutionbit);
}
void loop() {
//with_delay();
with_millis();
}
//------------------------------------------
void with_delay() {
// set direction
digitalWrite(MOTOR_IN1, HIGH);
digitalWrite(MOTOR_IN2, LOW);
// ramp speed up
for (int i = 0; i <= 255; i++) {
ledcWrite(0, i);
delay(30);
}
// ramp speed down
for (int i = 255; i >= 0; i--) {
ledcWrite(0, i);
delay(30);
}
}
//-------------------------------------------
void with_millis() {
unsigned long currentTime = millis();
if (currentTime - previousTime >= eventInterval) {
digitalWrite(MOTOR_IN1, HIGH);
digitalWrite(MOTOR_IN2, LOW);
for (int i = 0; i <= 255; i++) {
ledcWrite(0, i);
previousTime = currentTime;
}
}
if (currentTime - previousTime >= eventInterval) {
digitalWrite(MOTOR_IN1, HIGH);
digitalWrite(MOTOR_IN2, LOW);
for (int i = 255; i >= 0; i--) {
ledcWrite(0, i);
previousTime = currentTime;
}
}
}
Your problem is that the program gets stuck in the for loop.
You need to also create direction variable so the program that knows which if statement to execute.
You need to create some other logic that will increase the i variable without stopping the whole program.
The code:
//Initialize the i variable globaly:
int i = 0;
bool direction = 0;
//Your function:
void with_millis() {
unsigned long currentTime = millis();
if ((currentTime - previousTime >= eventInterval) && direction == true) {
digitalWrite(MOTOR_IN1, HIGH);
digitalWrite(MOTOR_IN2, LOW);
i++;
if (i <= 255) {
ledcWrite(0, i);
previousTime = currentTime;
} elif (i > 255) {
i = 0;
direction = false;
}
}
if ((currentTime - previousTime >= eventInterval) && direction == false) {
digitalWrite(MOTOR_IN1, LOW);
digitalWrite(MOTOR_IN2, HIGH);
i++;
if (i <= 255) {
ledcWrite(0, i);
previousTime = currentTime;
} elif (i > 255) {
i = 0;
direction = true;
}
}
}

Arduino: for loop not working inside of while loop

I have a set of LEDs 12 in total: 6 are blue, 6 are red. I had for loops that helped with the clutter for turning the LEDs on and off at a set interval. But now I want to make it so it has while loops controlling how long until the LED's speed changes. I have made 2 so far and both of them work but the second I put the for loop inside it doesn't do anything.
int redLEDPins[] = {2,3,4,5,6,7};
int blueLEDPins[] = {8,9,10,11,12,13};
int LED_Amount = 6;
int led_delay = 1000;
unsigned long time_since_last_reset = 0;
int wail = 5000;
int yelp = 3000;
int phaser = 3000;
int hilo = 3000;
void setup() {
for (int i; i < LED_Amount; i++) {
pinMode(redLEDPins[i], OUTPUT);
pinMode(blueLEDPins[i], OUTPUT);
}
Serial.begin(9600);
}
void loop() {
//wail while loop
time_since_last_reset = millis();
while((millis() - time_since_last_reset) < wail) {
led_delay = 250;
Serial.print("delay: ");
Serial.println(led_delay);
digitalWrite(2, HIGH);
delay(500);
digitalWrite(2, LOW);
delay(500);
}
//yelp while loop
time_since_last_reset = millis();
while((millis() - time_since_last_reset) < wail){
led_delay = 50;
Serial.print("delay: ");
Serial.println(led_delay);
for (int i; i < LED_Amount; i++) {
digitalWrite(redLEDPins[i], HIGH);
digitalWrite(blueLEDPins[i], LOW);
Serial.println("Red on ");
Serial.println("Blue off");
}
delay(led_delay);
for (int i; i < LED_Amount; i++){
digitalWrite(redLEDPins[i], LOW);
digitalWrite(blueLEDPins[i], HIGH);
Serial.println("Red off ");
Serial.println("Blue on");
}
delay(led_delay);
}
}
for (**int i**; i < LED_Amount; i++){
digitalWrite(redLEDPins[i],LOW);
digitalWrite(blueLEDPins[i],HIGH);
Serial.println("Red off ");
Serial.println("Blue on");
}
Might that be because you didn't initialize i?

Arduino-4X4 matrix keypad with I/O shift register

I need help. I have done some research and my little understanding of keypad scanning is that the ShiftIn value of Input Column should return zero (0) when a keypad button is pressed. Mine is only returning 255 (or 11111111) in BIN. All I need is to track the zero value when a key is pressed and then scan the keys matrix to display the pressed key. I will appreciate any help. I have added my code and schematic.

I m transmitting flex sensor values through serial port of arduino using Serial.print() function but I'm not able to read it at the receiving end

Actually in my code I'm transmitting accelerometer values as well as 4 flex sensor values. I have converted accelerometer value to 4 state as F(forward), B(backward),R(right),L(left).

issue with loop after invoking void function arduino

i've made simple program that is ligtning the RGB diod, and receiving info via i2c from keypad.
i have weird issue where i2c is not working right after invoking void function. when i switch functions with regular loop then same situation happens.
first i thought that it was connected with analog4 and analog5 port, but after changing functions it became obvious that this is not related.
after commenting Potentiometer(i) in loop method keypad is working as a charm
