I want to use best firmware. I have GEEETECH LCD 12864, Ramps 1.4 and DRV8825
I want to replace my current controller with the once above. I tried bukobot marlin firmware but LCD does not work as anticipated.
What is best firmware
Re: What is best firmware
LCD seems fine. The control knob on the LCD doesn't seem to work when marlin firmware is used.
So what is the best firmware to use. I am building a 3d printer from scratch. No design decided on yet.

and if you want to use GEEETECH LCD 12864 (Full Graphic Smart LCD Controller)instead of LCD 2004,you need to modify the firmware as below.
1.open configuration.h
2.define motherboard,but you don't need to modify it as the firmware i sent to you is for LAMPS 1.4.
#define MOTHERBOARD BOARD_RAMPS_13_EEB
3.Finding the following code in the configration.h. please add // to the third line of following code(#define REPRAP_DISCOUNT_SMART_CONTROLLER)
then,you should move // from the last line(//#define REPRAP_DISCOUNT_FULL_GRAPHIC_SMART_CONTROLLER).finaly,please reburn the modified firmware.
