This is our test method, you can refer to the following actions.
and I have test use two kinds of Arduino board, the results display normal
Open Arduino1.0.1 or other
select File->Examples->LiquidCrystal_I2C->Hellowoard
select Tools->Board->Arduino Duemilanove w/ ATmega328
select Tools->Serial Port->COMx
Done uploading, then connect UNO and 1602.
GND<->GND 5V<->VCC A4<->SDA A5<->SCL
Confirm the connection is good, for a period of time can display properly.
