Updating Ender 3 v3 SE with Nebula already instaled

Ender Series Creality Ender-3 V3 KE/SE

I found updates for the Nebula pad, to included printer firmware updates. I was able to update the nebula pad, but I don’t think the printer firmware flashed. Steps I took to update printer firmware:

  1. Downloaded and extracted files
  2. Formatted sdcard
  3. copied/pasted firmware file to sdcard
  4. With printer off, inserted sdcard and turned on machine
    *Now, I remember when I initially installed the Nebula kit and updated the printer firmware taking the same steps, but it took the Nebula several moments to boot. But in this case, the Nebula pad booted right away. To me, this indicates the firmware didn’t install.

I repeated the steps, but instead placed the files on the usb stick and inserted it in to the Nebula pad, but still no signs of updating.

Any ideas as to how I can update the printer firmware?
Is there a way I can check the printer firmware version?
When I look at the Device info on the cloud, it shows the Nebula firmware version (v1.1.0.26), but not the printer firmware.

I had to edit this as it seems people were more focused on the issue that had led me to the updates, instead of my actual concern which is updating my printer firmware.

I had the same issues with my prints with CP 5.1. The issue I believe is the slicer. The nebula pad should have its own profile but it’s not available yet. The older Creality print has a Ender 3 v3 se nebula pad profile that works. Hope that helps.

I have never had a satisfactory print with my V3SE and the sonic pad on any other version of Creality Print 4.8.3, any newer version and it would crunch the nozzle into the print, as if it wasn’t moving the Z axis. On 4.8.3 it was absolutely perfect, I could even trust someone else to print on that machine.

Not the point but thanks

Not the point but thanks… Going to edit OP…

Doesn’t the nebula pad create it’s own firmware for the printer? It does with my sonic pad. I still say the slicer version makes a difference to the nozzle crunching the print.

there is a separate zip with the printer firmware in it as well
