Hello,
I've recently acquired a Chiron, about 2 months or so now.
Mine shipped with the 1.3.5 firmware and the Anycubic_TFT v0.0.2 which I've come to learn is a clone for the previous display.
I generally check for updates to firmware as soon as I get any devices, to make sure I'm running the latest and issue free.
Interestingly, Anycubic doesn't have the 1.3.5 firmware on their support site (Americas). But I did find a mention to the Chinese site with a zip file that includes both the mainboard and screen firmwares, namely the 1.3.5 and 5.22 respectively.
And I flashed my screen...
That didn't go as "expected", with the bin file on SD inserted into the screen and booting up the printer, I would get a progress bar filling from the sides toward the middle and it stays that ways once the "loading" bar is complete... No matter how long I leave it.
It seems it's either expecting something or it's for another screen (previous versions?)
When the printer is turned on without the SD in the screen, it doesn't even light up (backlighting). It stays black.
I've found this git by @knutwurst who goes in fine detail about this and even has the "files" for the screen, a folder (DWIN_SET) to place on an SD and into the screen to flash it. However, that hasn't worked for me.
Also, I've been trying to get a solution from Anycubic's support but they're insisting on me flashing the 1.3.0 or 1.3.5.
Supposedly, it would fix my issue...
Since I can't flash directly, I resorted to cura's firmware flashing... which worked once and have only had the option greyed out since.
I've done it with octoprint and have been mainly using VSCode subsequently (with a lot of tweaking/headache)
All (obviously) didn't my screen back...
So my posting of this here, hopefully, might bring some people who know to the table.
