- Ender 3 V2, BL touch (5pin), Silent 4.2.7 MB with Smith 3d Firmware. When Auto leveling Z axis doesn't go down, But it does go down when I manually. Any Help is appreciated.

Ender 3 v2 + BLtouch + Smith3d E3V2-2.0.x.17 + Micro Swiss = ahhh (help?)!
For the past few days I have been working on how to adjust my bed center since the Micro Swiss has moved the position of the nozzle XY (& Z). Z is not an issue as this is adjusted in E3V2-2.0.x.17 via the HMI. On the Smith3D gethub they have the code posted via .bin file and I am using the "Smith3D-E3V2-2.0.x.17-Fast-5x5-180321.bin" which cannot be edited to adjust the parameters I need. Smith3d has posted one Source Code for all the E3V2-2.0.x.17... In total there are eight (8) different types (https://github.com/smith3d/Marlin/releases). I have been trying to mirror the Source Code to mimic the parameters I need from the "Smith3D-E3V2-2.0.x.17-Fast-5x5-180321.bin" with no luck, lots of things enabled/disabled.

Is This Process of Updating Firmware Insanely Complicated on Purpose?
You can find those .bin files on multiple locations: -https://github.com/Jyers/Marlin/releases -https://github.com/smith3d/Marlin/releases -https://forums.creality3dofficial.com/download/ender-series/ender-3-v2/

Z Offset with BL touch
Smith3D (https://github.com/smith3d/Marlin/releases/tag/2.0.x.17): Rock solid, no issues. Am currently running tests and bed levels as I am writing this. z-offset looks 'stable'
- Probe z offset changes significantly with each new print.
- Tired to install the BL touch software and after plugging in the micro SD card the screen won’t turn on

Adventure thus far
I was able to get the "old build" from this link to work for me https://github.com/smith3d/Marlin/releases/tag/2.0.x.16
- Can now use the entire build surface on a V2

Ender 3 v2 Linear advance possible?
Did a little research on one way; if you have `TMC_DEBUG` enabled in the Marlin firmware, you can check with `M122` commands. I use Smith3D firmware, so I've checked out the 2.0.x.17 git tag and enabled `TMC_DEBUG` along with `MONITOR_DRIVER_STATUS`. Currently compiling; will flash and see if it responds to M122.

First fosscad print. Other than some mild ringing/ghosting, it looks pretty good. 0.08mm layer height, 100% infill, eSUN PLA+ black. 24 hours and 22 minutes print time
Meatpack compresses the gcode commands sent to the printer over USB with the Octoprint plugin. The USB communication on most printers is limited to the baud rate, which is usually 125,200. I've running the latest Smith3D firmware, allowing me to use 250000: https://github.com/smith3d/Marlin/releases/tag/2.0.x.17

Bl / 3dtouch guide for Ender 3 v2
https://github.com/jyers/marlin/releases/ - Select E3V2-BLTouch-XxX-v4.2.X-v2.0.1.bin with X being either the amount of probing points or the version of your mainboard.
- What is a good reason I should install Jyers Marlin firmware instead of Marlin's Creality 4.2.7 stock firmware? (BTW I do laser engraving and 3D printing on Ender-3)
- How does the filament sensor work wiring-wise on a 4.2.7 board?

Couldn't tell you, but the Jyers firmware hasn't been updated since November 2021 according to the Github page: https://github.com/Jyers/Marlin

mcu 'mcu': Unable to connect while trying to setup Klipper over USB and UART
I glued 2 5p DuPont connectors back to back and put a red wire for vcc, a black wire for ground, a yellow wire for tx, and a green wire for rx (the colors are irrelevant, just for making sure the correct pins are connected to the pi) according to this schem: https://github.com/Jyers/Marlin/discussions/814

Aquila X2
As it is a Creality board then Jyers might be better or even Mriscoc as it is more up to date.
- Jyers 2.0.1 compiling error - E3 V2

Why does z axis only have 2 connections on ender 3 board?
Probably from there: https://github.com/Jyers/Marlin/discussions/814
- Extra thermistor stock board

I need help upgrading my ender 3V2
I switched to Klipper long time ago, but even back then Creality FW was trash and Jyers was fw to use, but it's outdated now. I think most people use the "Profesional" fw now. It should not be hard to find guide on YT.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing Marlin and Marlin you can also consider the following projects:
klipper - Klipper is a 3d-printer firmware
BIGTREETECH-SKR-mini-E3 - BIGTREETECH SKR-mini-E3 motherboard is a ultra-quiet, low-power, high-quality 3D printing machine control board. It is launched by the 3D printing team of Shenzhen BIGTREE technology co., LTD. This board is specially tailored for Ender 3 printer, perfectly replacing the original Ender3 printer motherboard.
SuperSlicer - G-code generator for 3D printers (Prusa, Voron, Creality, etc.)
ArcWelderPlugin - A plugin for OctoPrint used to convert G0/G1 commands to G2/G3 commands. Reduce the size of your gcode files, and reduce number of gcodes per second sent to your printer.
Marlin_Ender3v2 - This is an optimized firmware for Ender 3v2 3D printers. [Moved to: https://github.com/mriscoc/Ender3v2]
OctoPrint - OctoPrint is the snappy web interface for your 3D printer!
klipper - Klipper is a 3d-printer firmware [Moved to: https://github.com/Klipper3d/klipper]
Marlin - Marlin is an optimized firmware for RepRap 3D printers based on the Arduino platform. Many commercial 3D printers come with Marlin installed. Check with your vendor if you need source code for your specific machine.
