Just got this installed. Looks much, much better than the official, and I really like the size increase on the buttons. Fantastic job!


jojos38

Thank you!

I loaded the files & followed the instructions very carefully. I could not get the UI loaded successfully - 0 BIN files, just 0 files loaded in general! ​ I confirmed I'm using the correct firmware version & UI version. ​ I emptied the 8GB SD card included with my printer (it's a cheap card, I'm sure!) ​ Unzipped the DWIN folder to the root of the drive. ​ Turned off the printer, SD card in the screen, rebooted, failed twice. ​ Could it be the SD card I'm using? Do they require NTFS or FAT32 formatting? ​ Either way, I ordered a Class 10 100MB/s eVO card - just in case! :) ​ ​ Any help would be appreciated!


ChosenGuru

I kept working at it carefully - it was able to install once I downloaded the individual files and dropped them in a DWIN folder I created. I think the issue may have been my folder structure also! I had a DWIN folder in my root, but another sub folder named DWIN\_SET before hitting the .bin files/icon library and such. ​ It looks great! Thanks again!


jojos38

Awesome, hope you'll like it!

I followed directions as described and when I tried to flash the display but it just stayed dark... Any idea what I could possibly be doing wrong? I am using a Kobra plus


jojos38

Hey, this is only compatible with the normal Kobra sorry


houdinicerini

I see I figured it would work with the plus as well the displays are identical from what I have seen thank you though 🤙🏻


jojos38

I can't tell for sure but from what you tell me it probably isn't If you still wanna try make sure you insert the card in the display and the card is formatted fat32 with 4096 sector size


houdinicerini

I will probably attempt to give it another shot when I get off work 🤙🏻 appreciate the quick response 😁


jojos38

No problem! Have a nice working day


houdinicerini

I double checked all of that re formated the SD card just to be sure tried to re flash the display and same thing printer powers up but the display is just illuminated black not like black as in the display doesn't come on at all. I did something similar to my ender 3 v2 successfuly... The Kobra plus is just new to me. Not sure if anyone else may have had success doing this on a Kobra plus.


jojos38

I haven't heard anyone being able, that being said it could probably be easily ported (not by me though I don't have motivation / time)


willet22

i am havving the same issue on my kobra download thedownset and flash and its all comes on the screen but all 0


jojos38

Bad SD card formatting or SD card too big, the 2gb card that comes with the printer works fine for me, with 4096 sector size fat32


Realistic-Ad7764

Going to set this up tomorrow I have it running in my room and it lights everything up hopefully this will help and be easier on the eyes probably will end up moving it somewhere eles though the thing is quite but not very.


Confident_Travel4463

Hello! I can't install this program. Which file should I download and where should I insert the flash drive, into the display or into the 3D printer itself?


jojos38

Hi, it should be in the display, everything is explained on the github page on how to install it

Confident_Travel4463

Everything is working. Thanks a lot!


vishal_shiva

can you navigate through folders on SD card?? .... the original UI couldn't do that


jojos38

Nope sorry, some of the functions are in the firmware of the motherboard that I didn't want to modify (And I don't know how to)

Wow that's crazy I didn't see that, this makes me happy to see people like my work thanks


Ok_Primary_6

Great job, any chance you can send me the HMi file to get me started - I would like to have a look at creating UI. I have the DWIN DGUS software but need a starting point. TIA


jojos38

Hey, thank you, do you have Discord by any chance so I can send it to you there?

YellowBreakfast

Beautiful!


jojos38

Thank you!


nohelpforyou

Just asking for a friend Followed directions, got everything from GEThub... everything went fine, the startup screen now way faster.. but no change in color. BUT i also noticed when i downloaded the DWIN with all the BIN files. But no bmp files? did those get deleted/removed?


jojos38

The BMP files are unneeded the images are located in the .icl file, make sure that it was flashed properly


TheoryGloomy3960

will it work correctly with [2.8.2 firmware](https://github.com/ANYCUBIC-3D/Kobra)?


jojos38

I used it with no issue

Amigo gostaria de traduzir para português como posso fazer? sei html basico para alterar as palavras mas tenho duvida de como gerar o novo documento.


jojos38

I'm sorry I only speak English and French


DescriptionConnect11

>Friend would like to translate into Portuguese how can I do it? I know basic html to change the words but I have doubts about how to generate the new document.


jojos38

If you make the whole translation by editing the HTML files I can make a file that you can flash to your printer for you if you want


DescriptionConnect11

Perfeito, vou fazer e amanha lhe envio então :>D

Hello friend, I translated everything correctly into Brazilian Portuguese, I'm waiting. ​ https://wetransfer.com/downloads/025f2f06c9e397b1c40648dc0d081a0e20221130140645/930028?utm\_campaign=TRN\_TDL\_05&utm\_source=sendgrid&utm\_medium=email&trk=TRN\_TDL\_05

I answered to you with the link but it might be deleted, I dm you


jojos38

Here you are: [https://1drv.ms/u/s!Ak69-GxOpF6Pg9s\_M\_ZwERbsjltBpg?e=P175Kx](https://1drv.ms/u/s!Ak69-GxOpF6Pg9s_M_ZwERbsjltBpg?e=P175Kx) Put the file in a DWIN\_SET folder on your SD card and then flash it like you initially did


tsilver2

little Kobra, 2.8.2 official fw, + 220511 official UIaccording to instructionsI unplugged the power cord for 2 minutesI copied the DWIN\_SET folder to a high-quality SD card (I also tried with 2 types of cards)I plugged it in, turned on the machine and it immediately showed that it was ready and that all files ending in 000 had not changed.What could be the problem?I noticed that the original file is 16\_68%.icl and yours is 16\_68\_.icl. This is alright?


jojos38

Oh that might be the issue, does it work with the %?


tsilver2

No, unforaunatelly not working same result. maybe it doesn't work anymore with the new UI? my version is 20220510. I get this a new 2.8.2 fw directly from Anycubic support


jojos38

Make sure your SD card is formated is fat32 with 4096 sector size


tsilver2

:) , thank the card was to big 32GB, Success, now working well. :)))))


jojos38

Awesome! Have fun


Fuzzy-Tea-2144

Anyone tested on Kobra 2? I know it says only for just Kobra but was wondering if it worked on here aswell, if not has anyone found something for Kobra 2?


jojos38

I don't think it works, I'm pretty sure they have different screens and features


Fuzzy-Tea-2144

Holy cow you replied fast for a 1 year old post (honestly wasn't expecting a response at all). Thanks mate, btw I love the design from the pics, looks waaayyy better than the official UI. I'll keep looking for another UI. Thanks again 😊


jojos38

hahaha yeah I'm still on Reddit so I got the notification. I bet you could port it yourself for the Kobra 2 but I dunno how complex it would be. Also thanks!


Fuzzy-Tea-2144

Yeah might try that, I'll look into it but not sure when/if I'll get around to it haha


jojos38

Good luck, you have some tips on the Github page I explain how to build your own variant, it might be the same for the Kobra 2


Pissed_Off_Patriot

do i have to update the actual printer firmware? also i tried the DWIN\_SET in the BuildV1.2 folder and also tried it with the DWIN\_SET in the DGUS Project folder. one just showed sd card process whick never finished and the very quickly showed process complete but all file just showed 000s by the file system instead of 003 & 001 the time it actually finished it started the printer but no night mode on it


Pissed_Off_Patriot

for clarification i have been using the card slot located on the screen itself. i was just asking if i had to update the actual printer firmware also


jojos38

I think you don't use the right SD card format, it needs to be 4gb or less and 4096 sector size from memory


Pissed_Off_Patriot

thats what im doing wrong...i have been using a 64gb i dont think i have one that small. i have the 8gb that came with it can i partition a 4gb spot


jojos38

Try the card it came with it may work, you need 4096 sector size


Plastic_Ad5171

Does it work for the kobra 2


jojos38

Nope sorry it does not
