Issue with 2.4" HAT

I purchased a 2.4" HAT (2.4" HAT Primary Display for the Raspberry Pi) and can't seem to get it working. I have the Pi 2 and followed the instructions on the directions, then the website, to install the required package to get the screen working. Unfortunately, when I get everything installed the screen doesn't work and the software appears to cause the boot to hang (NOOBS OS) and there's no way to boot the system. I/m forced to reinstall NOOBS with a clean install.

Any suggestions?

the software may still be configured for the older PI .

When the move to PI 2 happened, some of the PI pins regarding the SPI bus etc changed and this may be your issue, look for an updated driver,, check their web site to verify it it has been confirmed working on PI 2
