You can connect a NOKIA display easily using a header extender. You only need to connect five pins this way. The other two are power and ground and they use jumpers to 3.3 Volts and ground.
This is a close up picture of the display.
This is a link to the video of it operating.https://youtu.be/BjQTGu81Pvo
