STM32F429 LTDC Screen doesn't work. Cannot draw shapes and it's getting noisy.

I am trying to make the LTDC controller work on my STM32F429 Discovery Board. Right now, after I run the code, I can tell the screen settings take their effects (SPI commands), but I cannot draw on the screen. The screen is getting noisy gradually.

Here are my settings:

  1. Layer 1 color format is L8. And I configured / enabled the CLUT.
  2. I didn't create my framebuffer on SDRAM, but save it directly in controller RAM.
  3. Not using DMA.

Here is some of my code:
