Any idea if this will work with the new "GD" sub model?

They started shipping the screen with ST clones which is denoted with a GD in the model.
I received on of these clones and am trying to figure out if this firmware would work with the clones or not. I've been having trouble getting it to flash and I'm not sure if its the clone or human error e.g. my SD card being 8GB instead of "less than 8GB"

Gotta get muh klipper going

I have no idea if it will work. I wouldn't be surprised if the clone devices are not updatable "in the field"...

I think you can't brick the TFT when flashing from SD card. But that's just a guess 😅

You've spent enough time digging into the guts of this that I trust your guess.

After putting GD in the name it does try to load it, but it quickly blanks out the screen and freezes. Re-booting the printer does not revert back to old firmware. Re-flashing with the canned firmware from BTT now seems to be working fine.

Maybe they changed other things as well on the new displays...

Maybe but I read some articles while struggling with similar woes on the MCU that claimed that the clones have quirks themselves that can break stuff built for the official STM chips.

As of 1.3.1 this does not work with the GD variants of the TFT 35 E3
