BIGTREETECH TFT35 V3.0.1 Graphic Smart Display Controller Board for 3D Printer Ramps 1.4 RepRap 3D Printer Can Select Two Work Modes

I upgraded my old Anet AM8 printer with an SKR Mini E3 V3 mainboard. Knowing that the old display is not readily compatible with the new board, I purchased the TFT 35 display. Compared to the problems I had to work through with the mainboard, the install of this was pretty straight forward. After installation, I updated the firmware to the Round Miracle Theme. It looks great. I like that you have the option to switch back to the LCD mode if you so desire. This was a great upgrade from the stock display.

I love this screen for my Ender 3. It’s easy to navigate, responsive to touch, colorful and best of all you can switch between the touch screen interface or back to the old Marlin interface at anytime. I haven’t tried using the sd card slot or anything on it but you do get those plus two expansion ports on the board!

So cool. I can use the old fashioned mode to access calibration and tuning, and have available the advanced touchscreen features as well.In Marlin, set LCD screen type to REPRAP_DISCOUNT_FULL_GRAPHIC_CONTROLLERNote: connection to a bigtreetech tango 1.0 worked properly when EXP1/EXP2 cables were plugged according to the keying on the ribbon cable. TFT mode is not possible to the Tango.Connection to a makerbase mks gen L required the removal of the keying on one end of each cable and one end of each cable must be rotated. You know it needs to be swapped when screen stays blank and rotating the encoder reboots the displayFor TFT mode, use the tft header (5v/gnd/tx/rx) and run reset to the rst pin on icsp header.

The media could not be loaded. So once you get it working it's really nice but you di have to print a custom holder or case for it because the knob is in a different position. I've only been 3d printing for 1 week so if you have a little common sense and not afraid to just try different things you should be able to get it to work with your cr10. Haven't seen anyone on here post about that printer so if you have it here is what I did to get it to work. Connect the original cable as is and the second cable with 5 pins add to the end going into the monitor 5 male to female jumpers. And when you plug it into tft and rs323 make sure you plug into rs323 the opposite pin if what it is on the mother board. So when you're looking down in your motherboard the pin thats the far left one plug into the far right one on the board when you're looking down. Its still takes about 3 seconds when switching between touchscreen and led to connect. It says not connected for a couple of sec and goes away and works perfect. So good luck and just tinker until it works just don't short it. And don't give it a bad review because your didn't research and see that its a pain to install. Too many people giving it bad reviews because they were lazy and didn't even read the comments

I got this display separately from main board. It came in without anti-static bag and loose in a box, as if it was used. No visible damage, it it does work, so I don't really care, but it should have been discounted and sold as used.

I use this with a BTT SKR MINI E3 V1.2 controler board which allows me to use either the touch screen or the Marlin screen. I don't think you could use both screen modes on the Creality control board but I'm not sure.Most of the time, I use the Marlin scroll menu but having the touch screen is great for things like homing it.For the price point, I think it is well worth it for the convenience. Updating it is easy too, just follow the instructions on the bigtreetech/BIGTREETECH-TouchScreenFirmware github site.

Purchased the TFT35 in the hopes that it would increase my bed leveling accuracy and overall printer efficiency, what I got instead was a nightmare of random freezes and a labyrinth of barely comprehensible broken English github posts. I'm currently using the BTT SKR Mini E3 V3 as my main board for my Ender 3 and thought the TFT35 would be a great compliment. Once the unit arrived I updated the firmware and got right to printing... and then the random freezes started. After navigating github for DAYS (while still dealing with freezes) I tried everything from specific settings to checking my SKR updates, swapping SD cards and fresh formats, nothing worked. The only post that I could find with any decent solution was a post babbling about buffer size and actually changing the code manually.I decided to send the unit back and opted for a replacement just to be on the safe side. Once the new unit arrived I again updated the firmware and went straight to printing a 15 hour print. Everything looked good for the first 13 hours then... Frozen. Again I checked everything and I noticed that there was a new Firmware patch out.

I got this for my Ender 3 pro, I modded the heck out of this thing and wanted something a little easier to work with then the factory screen. This was a perfect fit. I have a SKR mini V1.2 and needless to say installation was pretty simple. Teaching tech has a fantastic video to help if you aren't super tech savvy. Touch screen is great the LED on the knob is super nice. I would highly recommend this.
