v3.09 Firmware Problems

Hello - I am hoping for some help because I have run out of options. I have rebuilt my i3 with new frame and bearings, plus screws (like Z axis 8mm) on X&Y. I have also increased Z height to about 320mm. I am running the i3 MK2 upgrade parts (PINDA, Full V6, Heated Bed, motors etc) and because I am running these custom configurations, I have modified the firmware from GitHub to modify the settings. (ONLY simple changes like Z height, steps/axis and PLA temp profile etc)

I am able to run v3.07 to move the machine around, but PINDA won't work. So I try v3.09 and I cannot compile it using Arduino v1.0.6 environment. It gives errors. I had to upgrade to Arduino v1.6.13 & then change all of the f_post names in the SdBaseFile .h & .cpp ~ then it compiles correctly with all of my new settings (step settings, Z height etc) - BUT when I load into the Rambo v1.3, the screen is garbled with "fvgfgvffgv" after firmware completes loading and after cycling power - just solid blocks. It won't show the menu.

I can load v3.07 but the PINDA doesn't work properly. I looked at the GitHub and there is a mention of the 'f_post issue' but nothing about it not working. I'm dead in the water until I can get this going.

Any ideas? Maybe I am missing something?

Re: v3.09 Firmware Problems

So I just recompiled v3.07 and uploaded it with no problem. I also recompiled v3.09 with no changes (vanilla) aside from the required change of fpos_t to fpost just to get it to compile - and same thing - garbled LCD.

EDIT:

OK - Looks like I overlooked putting the AddOns in the Arduino hardware & libraries folders when I updated from 1.0.6 to 1.6.13 🙄

LCD telling me to run calibration - so things are good so far!!! I will mess with it in the morning.

FYI - v3.09 would not compile for me without upgrading Arduino IDE to v1.6.13

Rather than delete my posts, I figured I'd leave them up in case somebody else has the same issues.
