Config is good. However without knowing the hardware configuration the user would have to reverse engineer what hardware you have. Meaning they would already have the ability and knowledge to do this themselves and faster. What is the pin configuration. Is this UART. does it use a bltouch is this the default screen. what drivers? pot vref driver changes. etc. etc.

Just added the default configuration of the "main" branch I'm using right now. If you have any idea of what you want me to add, please provide them here and I'll do my best ;)

My hardware is currently like yours; minus the changed thermistor and the screen [default ender 3].

users also need to know the Bowden length and if they need to cut theirs to your length.

[I'll just buy the display and call it a day. just not sure about the thermistor]

Actually the thermistor is not a big deal, I switch the configuration after a couple of weeks and I had no issue. Anyway as always it's better to run an "PID autotune" when switching, just in case. you could left it by default and call it a day.

As for the bowden tube, I don't think that's necessary. The biggest issue would be with the calibration of the retraction, and that is happening in the slicer (ex. Cura, PrusaSlicer, etc) and not in Marlin :)

FYI : You can use the configuration directly without buying a new screen, if you need help to configure with the default setup just contact me ;)

Also I will had configuration for the other branches as soon as I have time to check what I configured back then lol

https://github.com/bigtreetech/BIGTREETECH-TouchScreenFirmware update firmware, no display? Not in tft mode. Its in marlin mode. ok? seems like a odd choice.

[windows security block the copying of these fonts. windows problems. yay.] win32 disk imager and save the card in its entirety to fix?

resolved. windows being dumb. update and reboot resolved. IE11 removed as well.

Thinking this would be the easiest part was a bad idea.

Marlin mode is using the two 10 pin connectors, while touch mode uses the TFT connector. Sadly the 10 pin connectors are short. Way too short.... back to amazon.

I also made the mistake of believing that a mount would be provided.... so 3d printing a new mount as well.

seems only part remaining is config.

I guess I will give up on running the display. https://www.reddit.com/r/BIGTREETECH/comments/jfr6fw/skr_14_turbo_tft35e3_v30_tft24v11_and_the/ga0tmz4/ [seems the unified interface is the issue]

what are the preferred gcode setups these days?

Thank you
