How to enable the Inland 3.5" TFT LCD Touchscreen Monitor on a Raspberry Pi-3B works.
How do you switch back to the HDMI output? What driver needs to be swapped where?
Thanks for any clues offered.

I found this on the Raspberry Pi forums, perhaps it will help you for your question.

To Switch from LCD Display to HDMI monitor :
cd LCD-show sudo ./LCD-hdmi
reboot and your LCD screen becomes disabled, unplug it from raspberry and plug in your external HDMI monitor .
2. To Switch from HDMI monitor back to LCD Display :
cd LCD-show sudo ./MPI3508-show
( where you select your model of LCD , MPI3508 in my case)
reboot the Raspberry Pi , the HDMI monitor becomes black and your LCD display is active again.
Greetings, we would suggest looking through our guide on this: https://community.microcenter.com/discussion/9216/how-to-enable-the-inland-3-5-tft-lcd-touchscreen-monitor-with-raspberry-pi
Right... That's what I did... It works... Now I can't use the HDMI anymore, just the 3.5" LCD. HOW do I switch it back and forth between LCD & HDMI?
THANK YOU!
IT WORKS. Makes it much easier to continue development, OBTW: I didn't need the "sudo" to do it on mine.

It looks like a common source, even the silkscreen looks the same.
Sweet, glad to hear that worked
