DGUS-reloaded-Klipper VS Marlin

The stock screen needs this klipper fork and their screen firmware https://github.com/Desuuuu/DGUS-reloaded-Klipper

I have the stock screen install currently. While it works with a modified version of Klipper (https://github.com/Desuuuu/DGUS-reloaded-Klipper), that release is 2-3 years old now. I use vanilla Klipper so that I can can stay up to date with the latest releases. I don't find much use to a screen because my computer is near my printer and I just use Fluidd (or Mainsail, or Octoprint, etc.).

I’m running it on all three of mine. It works well. There is nice firmware for the screen available from Desuuuu on GitHub. https://github.com/Desuuuu/DGUS-reloaded-Klipper

There is an old, now quite outdated, attempt at supporting the Ender 3 v2 touchscreen on Klipper through a fork. But that has not been updated in quite a while and it never really worked well enough to actually use in the first place. I strongly recommend you don't try to use that fork, but if you do you will need to recompile and re-flash the firmware as it uses an older version of Klipper. Again, this has not been updated in over a year. Do not try to use it.

With klipper i use https://github.com/Desuuuu/DGUS-reloaded-Klipper Shows temperatures and progress, i like it.

the only thing I did was switch back to community firmware for the cr-6, its picky when trying to update cause the sd card has to be formatted in a specific way. Sauce is here https://github.com/CR6Community/Marlin/releases

here's a video I followed, here's another video I followed. Make sure to get the 2 bin files into the folder since it's your first time installing the firmware or whatever. It's mentioned somewhere in one of those videos, take note when he talks about it. here's the gibhub to the files, this is from the description modbot's video. If you scroll down on that github to the bottom of the comment where it shows the file down loads, that "new-hardware-revision-touchscreen...." is the other touchscreen file I had to flash.

Yeh it's safe afaik lots of people are using it. it's on github I think..yeh right here. I found it from a youtube video about upgrading the firmware on my cr6se. here's one of the videos I watched. (here's another video I watched)[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RDW6fUSHJQY&t=169s]

So as CF i would install https://github.com/CR6Community/Marlin/releases 6.1 (June 2021) And probably also the new refactored display firmware https://github.com/CR6Community/CR-6-touchscreen/releases/tag/Re-Factored_v1.1

For the main board: https://github.com/CR6Community/Marlin

Save yourself some time/aggravation and go with the Community firmware update: https://github.com/CR6Community/Marlin/releases/tag/v2.0.7.3-cr6-community-release-6
