when i turned it on today it
ot stuck on the blue screen any fix?
Looks like your firmware might need reinstalling to the machine. You should be able to download the firmware from the Creality downloads page here:
Creality Firmware Downloads
how would i install it? just plug the sd card in then bam?
Move the new firmware to SD card.
Make sure the file ends .bin.
As in āfirmware.binā
With printer off, install SD card.
When you power up the printer, donāt touch the screen until it finishes installing the firmware.
Thatās, it.
I have the same problem after installing Katapult. I guess i must reset my board, but I donĀ“t know how. I have this board: Creality cr4ns200320c13. Is it compatible to another board in this list:

You have an ENDER 3 V3SE???
The board you have is 32 bit quality board. Are you looking for another board that specifically works well with a certain splicer/software you are comfortable with?
Or need help reinstalling or upgrading the firmware you flashed recently?
Iām asking because it reads to me like youāre asking for 2 different things and Iām not absolutely sure which you prefer.
EDIT
It is possible you accidentally hit the āsupport boot loader entryā by accident or didnāt realize what it is when installing the Katapult/Canoot.
There is a known issue that requires some recompiling on your end.
You can save money with a new board you really donāt need and be able to use the slicer of your choice.
Iāll post a link here that does a good job of walking you through what needs to be done.

I should know if this board can be reset, I didnĀ“t find any button. Or is there another way to reset?
When you say āresetā, do you mean set back the firmware to Creality firmware it had before you installed the Katapult?
I need to know what printer you have to be able to show you the correct Creality firmware to use.
Iām just giving an educated guess that itās a V3 SE.
Yes, I have the V3 SE, wuth this special board I donĀ“t see in any description in the internet. I tried flashing with SD x times without success. The bootloader seems to be ādamagedā, therefore I should know if there is a hard reset for this board. Perhaps I should buy a ST-link adapter?
There is no hard reset that Iām aware of. Generally the boards have a limited amount of memory to work with, so they donāt have a dedicated amount of memory to hold a previous flash or default factory reset to revert to.
Did you try any of the firmware from Creality recommendations for your printer?
The first firmware toward top is the newest.
NOTE:
Just in case your current firmware is this version but the flash was corrupted, I recommend:
1- downloading it again
2- unzip and rename the firmware āfirmware.binā
3- turn printer off
4- insert SD card with firmware
5- turn printer on and wait until completed without touching screen controls.
If youāre trying to reflash the same firmware, it will not flash unless you rename it.
I CANT INSTALL IT HELP
IT STILL STAYS ON BLUE WHEN I PUT THE DAMN SD CARD IN WIT HTHE DAMN FIREWARE
IM ABOUT GIVE UP AND NEVER USE THIS DAMN 3D PRINTER
Hi
First of all relax.
I have an Ender 3 V3 SE and when I updated the firmware I followed this method.
Download and copy to Micro SD the firmware for the SCREEN,
Download and copy to SD card the firmware for the main board.
Install the firmware for the screen first.
Switch off printer, insert the micro sd card into the slot on the left hand side.
Let the firmware load, you will see confirmation on the screen, once confirmed switch off the printer and remove the micro sd card.
Now install the mainboard firmware.
With the printer off insert the sd card into the printer, switch the printer on the firmware should install, as far as I can remember nothing shows on the screen but after a short time the screen just works.
Once up and running check the firmware version displayed in the settings to ensure the update applied.
Once done you will need to do a calibration run as any settings will have been wiped.
I am taking a wild guess that you installed the mainboard firmware without doing the screen this WILL cause the blank display you have,
Good Luck
Hey, I have been having this same issue. My printer is able to successfully install the screen firmware but it will not install the main board firmware. I left the printer powered on overnight as you said it could take a few minutes but when I woke up it was still the blue loading screen.
same here firmware success, touch sensor manually adjusted to the bed, not it. sensor disconnected no change just a blue screen no error message or nothin.
i got it working so you gotta first install the firmwarm on the little side not the sdcard side the screen sd card
then after the firmware turn if off the install the main board firmware
I know this is an older post, but itās still one of the first results on google. Below is what I did to fix this issue on my Ender 3 v3 SE. You will need one regular SD card and one micro SD card (or a micro to full size adapter) as we will be flashing two different firmwares to two different parts of the printer.
The screen will require a micro SD card to flash firmware and the board will require a full size SD card to flash firmware.
- Download the
Ender-3 V3 SE_HWCR4NS200320C13_SWV1.0.6_GD303.zipfile from the Creality website (Ender-3 V3 SE Software & Firmware Download - Creality 3D) - Format the SD card. On Windows, select Fat 32 and āDefault Allocation Sizeā
- Unzip the file.
- Place the
SE_HWCR4NS200320C13_SWV1.0.6_GD303.binfile on the full size SD card. - Place the
TJC_SETfolder on the micro SD card. - Turn off the printer and unclip the screen so you can access the micro SD card slot.
- Insert the micro SD card and turn the printer back on and wait. It should not take more than a minute or two to flash the firmware. You will see a message on the screen.
- Turn the printer back off.
- Remove the micro SD card and reclip the screen. Insert the full size SD card on the side of the printer.
- Turn the printer back on and wait. It should not take more than a minute or two to flash the firmware. You will see a message on the screen.
- Turn the printer back off and remove the SD card.
- Turn the printer back on.
Done.

Just wanted to say a big thank you for your post. The firmware version has been updated, but the process is still the same. This saved my printer.
Hi
This looks like good advice
Like the OP I turned on my Ender 3 V3SE after a few months of not using it.
The screen displayed the blue wiggly lines in the picture at the head of this post.
Remember, the V3 SE has no connection to the internet, so how did it get into this state? Has the firmware been corrupted on the motherboard, or is there an embedded ādrop deadā date?
I downloaded the motherboard firmware and formatted an SD card as advised - harder on the Mac!
This binary uploaded to the motherboard on the first attempt and the printer was restarted. I have all functionality restored including print BUT no icons on the display.
Reading the posts it seems as though these icons are in the screen firmware which also requires updating.
The Creality cloud site has a directory that looks appropriate, but this is underneath a directory labelled in Chinese script and is from 2023, not 2025 as per the motherboard firmware update.
Is it safe to upload this TJC_SET directory, or will I end up with a display that exclusively works in Mandarin?
Grateful for advice
