Can't build lvgl sample with ssd1306 and nrf52832

Question

I try to do everything as in the guide (second advanced option) devzone.nordicsemi.com/.../small-i2c-oled-displays-using-nrf-connect-sdk but I get errors when building

but here my ssd1306_128x64.overlay

/ {
	chosen {
		zephyr,display = &ssd1306_ssd1306_128x64;
	};
};

&arduino_i2c {
	status = "okay";

	ssd1306_ssd1306_128x64: ssd1306@3c {
		compatible = "solomon,ssd1306fb";
		reg = <0x3c>;
		width = <128>;
		height = <64>;
		segment-offset = <0>;
		page-offset = <0>;
		display-offset = <0>;
		multiplex-ratio = <63>;
		segment-remap;
		com-invdir;
		prechargep = <0x22>;
	};
};

also overlay for my board

&pinctrl {
    i2c0_default: i2c0_default {
		group1 {
			psels = <NRF_PSEL(TWIM_SDA, 0, 22)>,
				<NRF_PSEL(TWIM_SCL, 0, 23)>;
		};
	};

	i2c0_sleep: i2c0_sleep {
		group1 {
			psels = <NRF_PSEL(TWIM_SDA, 0, 22)>,
				<NRF_PSEL(TWIM_SCL, 0, 23)>;
			low-power-enable;
		};
	};
};

arduino_i2c: &i2c0 {
	compatible = "nordic,nrf-twi";
	status = "okay";
	clock-frequency = <I2C_BITRATE_FAST>;
  
    ssd1306: ssd1306@3c {
        compatible = "solomon,ssd1306fb";
        reg = <0x3c>; //0x3c is the i2c address of the display controller IC, SSD1306.
        width = <128>; // Width of the display.
        height = <64>; // Height of the display. Change to '64' when using the 128x64 pixel version.
        segment-offset = <0>;
        page-offset = <0>;
        display-offset = <0>;
        multiplex-ratio = <63>; //change to '63' when using the 128x64 pixel version
        segment-remap;
        com-invdir;
        com-sequential;
        prechargep = <0x22>;
	// add more driver settings here
    };
};

I work with a custom board with nRF52832 chip and with NCS 2.8.0. Help me please

Hello, thank you for your reply.

It looks like the ssd1306 overlay is added by itself.

I made a project based on this guy's example taking the same settings, but considering the specifics of nrf52, since it's a relatively recent solution, I thought it should work. devzone.nordicsemi.com/.../nrf52840-dk---ssd1306---display. github.com/.../test_zephyr_oled . This project was built but I don't see anything.

So here is my overlay:

/ {
    chosen {
        zephyr,display = &ssd1306;
    };
};

&pinctrl {
    i2c0_default: i2c0_default {
		group1 {
			psels = <NRF_PSEL(TWIM_SDA, 0, 22)>,
				<NRF_PSEL(TWIM_SCL, 0, 23)>;
		};
	};

	i2c0_sleep: i2c0_sleep {
		group1 {
			psels = <NRF_PSEL(TWIM_SDA, 0, 22)>,
				<NRF_PSEL(TWIM_SCL, 0, 23)>;
			low-power-enable;
        };
    };
};

&i2c0 {
    compatible = "nordic,nrf-twi";
    status = "okay";
    pinctrl-0 = <&i2c0_default>;
    pinctrl-1 = <&i2c0_sleep>;
    pinctrl-names = "default", "sleep";
    clock-frequency = <I2C_BITRATE_FAST>;


    ssd1306: ssd1306@3c {
        compatible = "solomon,ssd1306fb";
        reg = <0x3c>;
        height = <64>;
        width = <128>;
        segment-offset = <0>;
        page-offset = <0>;
        display-offset = <0>;
        multiplex-ratio = <63>;
        prechargep = <0x22>;
        com-invdir;
        segment-remap;
    };
};

Also I should say that I actually use sh1106, but I have worked with it on several platforms and the code for ssd1306 always worked (not always correctly, but it showed something). Should I close the failed build thread (because I was able to build), or can you help me further with the screen issue?
