What needs to be done to use Ender 3v2 stably.
My Ender 3v2 has been working pretty flawlessly and consistent over the last 3 years I had it. Upgrades I made directly out of the box: Auto Bed Leveling usingthe CR Touch upgrade from Creality replaced the bed leveling springs with silicone washers (also from Creality) replaced the plastic filament

I’m intimidated by software and upgrades.
After you install the CRtouch sensor, you want to remove the Z limit switch completely. Disconnect it from the frame of the printer and disconnect the wires from the mainboard. The next thing you need to do is update the firmware to a version that supports your mainboard with a CRtouch added. In the

I just unboxed a brand new CR-10 Mini in 2026 - advice very welcome!
Also you can go 4.2.7 creality board but coming from experience with both 4.2.7 in a ender 3 pro and the skr mini in the cr10 the skr mini is a better choice but I do have an extra 4.2.7 that id part with for $20 plus shipping but in all honesty the extra money for the skr is worth it.

Ender 3 V1 motherboard
Don't upgrade motherboard, waste of money. 4.2.2 motherboard is already 32 bit, its just fine. You just need to flash the firmware version for your motherboard from Creality Cloud that is for the CR-Touch; the factory version of the firmware probably is not for the CR-Touch, Why do you want to upgra

Firmware update
is your screen touch, or have a physical click-knob? if touch, I believe IIRC that creality never released firmware for the display to work with newer versions of marlin. you're stuck if knob, ... I think you need to find the display firmware and update that too, but then it works edit to add: best

Louis Rossmann taunts Bambu Lab by hosting banned 3D Printer firmware fork, dares $1 billion company to sue him — more creators pledge support and boycotts, Snapmaker donates equipment to embattled developer
I don't know how Creality is these days, but I've been using custom modded Creality Ender 3 V2 firmware from guy Mriscoc for years. In general Creality at least with Ender 3 was super open and I loved it so much for it. Modded entire printer, added leveling probe, custom firmware is so advanced and

Ender 3 V1 – Creality 4.2.7 – Klipper flashes but MCU unable to connect
Im going through this same problem. Im using an old 4.2.7 board that "used" to have klipper on it with an Ender5pro. I upgraded that to an SKR Mini E3 V3 from BTT. It seems the renaming after successful flash is only on BTT boards btw. I recently grabbed an Ender 3 V1 (og) which had a V1.1.2 board i
