    Thanks for making this video! We always appreciate a good tutorial that we can refer people to when they need help. At the moment we're working hard to improve the Auto Build Marlin extension so it will be easier to find options and configure the firmware, so hopefully it will be less of a struggle for new and casual users.

    First time trying to do this. I've watched plenty of other videos and felt a bit overwhelmed. They go a little too far into detail and I got lost in what exactly I needed to do. Your video is very well to the point explaining exactly what I needed to update the firmware. Much appreciated. Definitely the video I'll share with others that need help.

    YOU DO NOT HAVE TO REMOVE THE HEATSINK ON THE DRIVER BOARDS. The letters written on the micro SD slot actually correspond to the driver chip on that board. (specifically for Creality 4.2.2 and 4.2.7 boards)
    C = HR4988
    E = A4988
    A = TMC2208
    B = TMC2209
    H = TMC2225
    T5 = TMC2225
    T8 = TMC2208
    In the case of the video you can see at 2:29 ish there's an E written on the slot and later around 6:50 you see them use A4988 as the driver. This will save time and your eyes with how hard they are to read
    If you do still remove the heatsink make sure you get some thermal paste to replace it .
    Also thanks to Printer Mods website for this info!

    You don't actually need to remove a heatsink from the stepper, the "E" marked on your sd card slot refers to what drivers your board has (E=A4988). Other letters refer to other drivers. I just learned this myself.

    ATTENTION: The "cool down" feature DOES exist, I didn't see it at the bottom of the menu at the time (sorry!), and didn't think to scroll down. My apologies! Just know that it only pops up / reveals when the printer is in a "preheating" state. The "Cool Down" menu option will be in the same location as "Preheat PLA / Preheat ABS" but it won't show until after the printer is heating, and it will be at the very bottom of the menu.

    There's example configs files to use as a base for compiling marlin with the right board but it depends on what version of marlin you're building for. This helps with issues like the printer not cooling down after a print, lets you properly preheat the printer before printing (especially if you use cura for your slicing software and have properly set your start and end gcode). I have config my version of marlin because the official one for the board manufacturer didn't compile theirs properly.

    Yahoo, my new system board is up. What I did. I found you need to use a mini SD card. the regular SD will not work with an adapter. My mini SD card came with 2 folders, “boot” and “USB DRIVE”. Yes. One in caps the other not. I copied everything from the mini SD card and deleted all the files. I then put the .bin in both folders. The original .bin from the mini SD card that came with the new board. Just to mention my background is 43 years of computer hardware field engineering. So I unplugged the printer, and turned it on. This drains any power left in the board. A couple of minutes works. Then install the mini SD card. Turn off the printer, plug in the printer and turn it on. After about 20 seconds the printer shows the main screen Ender 3 PRO. I have not tried using it yet. However this process did get firmware on the new board. When nothing else worked. I hope this is helpful. I should be able to use the new .bin created above in both folder. Thank you TechWithRita.
    Update, I have been able to reload firmware with a different firmware using this same procedure. Procedure proven to work.

    I went through all these steps last night, only to find that the chip in my Ender 3 S1 is not supported for Marlin because they switched to it due to the chip shortage. It's the STM32F401 chip, and it didn't show up under the list of options when it came time to build Marlin. Also my heatsink wouldn't stick back on so I put a dab of toothpaste on it as a temporary fix. Ordered some thermal paste on amazon, so that toothpaste will be replaced as soon as it arrives.

I can't find any configuration files and what I have found, the numbers for the size of the bed doesn't work, I have to do all kinds of offsets and I can't hardly print with the printer, even cura doesn't have the fig file, the ones that I have are in Chinese and I'm just lost! I've spent 2 weeks trying to do This and it's not working! I would pay you ! Lol I would greatly appreciate it!

    Though it flies by very fast, I was able to make the changes desired for my Ender 3 Pro configuration files. But when I compile, I get an error "#include errors detected, Please update your includePath". Being a complete programming dummy, I am unable to resolve. Any ideas?

    If you get your hands on a Ender 3 V2 Neo let me know if you manage to get Marlin working. As far as I can tell it doesn't work yet.

    Thank you so much ! Can you make instructions for connecting bltouch?)

      Hi! I don’t have a BLTouch sensor on my printer, I personally don’t think it’s worth buying as I can level the bed pretty quick and easily without it, but there is a function or two in the configuration file that you can search for and uncomment to activate it specifically for the BLTouch sensor, just search via CTRL + F in the IDE for “BLTOUCH” and it should take you to the related functions where you can read their descriptions and decide if they are relevant for your sensor :) hope this helps!

    When I try to generate the file for the firmware after pressing build it says failed. Everything Im doing and the numbers seem to be identical any one else had this problem?

    I have had an issue but havent been able to find a solution anywhere. I updated to marlin 2.1.2 following this guide and it worked perfectly (yay!) however, I've noticed I get ghost inputs during prints. It's like the ender thinks I'm pressing the knob button when I'm not doing anything! Anybody know whats going on?

    So, I'm new to 3d printing.
    I burned the microcontroller, ( blue screen )bought a new one, soldered on, then, the same problem, got a blue screen.
    Do I have to install a bootloader, to flash a new firmware?

    Super brilliantly done Rita. I see where Marlin Firmware recognized your work. when I got to where to go to compile / build the configurations for my printer are not there. I have a Geeetech A20T multi-color printer. I used a version of the CURA engine that could run with the A20T Color Mixer program. But not all the settings for advanced control . The Ultimaker CURA with Marlin 2.1.1 is where I need to go. Now returning to problem of no configurations. I submitted my request to Geeetech and support referred me to your video, which I had previously viewed. Any ideas?

    • @techwithrita

      Hello, although I do not have experience with A20T color mixer, I did research it briefly to try and help. I was able to search through the configuration folders via CTRL F (it’s not an obvious find for sure) the “A20T color mixer” or “A20T” and found the config files to be copied and pasted into the “marlin” folder (in the Marlin-2.1.1 folder > marlin) (-also, make sure to “replace existing files” when prompted, not paste in addition to the same-name files). From the results of searching “A20T” in the “Configurations-release-2.1.1” folder, I copied all 4 items in the search results and pasted them and the auto build marlin updated the board info correctly. Next, since you have multiple extruders with one nozzle, you’ll have to open the configuration.h file in the editor / IDE from the marlin folder after you pasted it from the above step. You’ll then CTRL F and type in the search bar “multi-“ for multi-extruder (even though terminology is different from multi-color) and read the description of that function before uncommenting it to see if it applies to your printer. If so, activate it / uncomment it and then save. Then scroll through the list of functions to see if more apply or are needed before building your firmware and it should enable all functionality on your printer. I hope this helps!

      @@techwithrita Hi Rita, sorry I wasn’t as prompt as you. I found the A20T configurations file but it only contains the 2 configuration files but no bootstrap or status file. None of the Geeetech printers had 4 files, but the Ender printers all seem to have all 4. I was able to get a successful compile. But when I put the SD card into the printer and turned on printer nothing happened. And then I recalled another site complained about Geeetech printers not being cooperative that way and showed using Cura to do the load, but timing of release of reset button on printer and pressing open of load on PC. It worked. But then I rebooted printer and cable came loose that connected PC to printer and now I have a blue screen and further attempts to reconnect resulted in failure because the Port is busy.

      @@MoonShadow. hmm… there are a lot of layers to that, but I hope you didn’t brick your board! The blue screen of death as they call it (slightly different from PCs) usually means either the firmware needs to be reinstalled or is corrupt… or that a cable(s) got disconnected somewhere on your board. I would check the cables and all connections first before attempting to work with the firmware

    Does anybody know which marlin version works with two trees bluer blu-3? I tried with the newest firmware version and it says to download an earlier marlin version or newer version of firmware.

    If you are receiving error message "TMC2208 or TMC2209 on X requires X_HARDWARE_SERIAL or X_SERIAL_(RX|TX)_PIN." then you need to change your code to the TMC####_STANDALONE version.

    wonderful tutorial!!! However I have a question because I want to change the motherboard of my printer to a more powerful one (SKR 3); although the official github of the SKR has a Marlin already configured, it is version 2.0, and I would like to use this last version 2.1. Would it be enough to install Marlin as in this tutorial (Marlin 2.1) and only modify the config.h and adv_config.h files with the parameters of the official version of SKR (Marlin 2.0) ? Thanks for the tutorial!

    Hey, what do you do if the chip info does not match up with the builds at 7:01. I have an ender 3 neo. I used the folder marked for the Pro since its one of the closest one to the neo. my chip told me its a "TMC2208". Please if you can help that would be great.
