3.5 Inch RPi LCD with colors problem

Question

I've just installed a 3.5 Inch RPi LCD (A) V3 (XPT2046 Touch Controller) on my Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ and I'm having problems with the colors of the display. I'm attaching an image to show you.

I'm using the driver from this link: https://www.elecrow.com/wiki/index.php?title=3.5_Inch_480x320_TFT_Display_with_Touch_Screen_for_Raspberry_Pi
and my OS is Raspberry Pi OS (32-bit) with desktop (from may 2020).
The touch is working, the problem is only with the colors.

Can you help me? Thank you.

This 3.5" LCD module is neither from Waveshare nor Elecrow

After dug deep into google searchs, finally i got it worked...
I was noticed that there are some variations of this LCD and each of them work with a specific driver...
I' ve tested a lot of configurations and OS (Raspibian, Ubuntu, RetroPie etc..) and got it works in Raspbian latest version with a script called LCD35-show.sh from this repo. I' ve tested all of them and only this one works for me.
