Scrambled LCD after marlin 1.1.9 flash

Hello team.

For whatever reason my extruder has decided to reverse itself. I had been using a .hex 1.1.9 from this forum and i cannot edit it.
I download 1.1.9 from marling as well as the bugs fix edit both the configure.h files to turn the extruder back to true/false for the reverse.
However when i load that marlin up onto my a10m the screen either has 2 rows of blocks when its the standard 1.1.9.
Or it is completely scrambled with gibberish if i use the bugs fix 1.1.9.

Do i need to add my board which is a gt2560 V3 to the boards.h file
or do i need to add my screen to the configuration.h file?
Or am i completely wrong/

Thanks.

I think you need to check these lines:
1.Check the LCD type is correct or not

Code: Select all

// Note: Usually sold with a white PCB.
//
#define REPRAP_DISCOUNT_SMART_CONTROLLER

2.You can try to change it to Japan for a test

Code: Select all

 * :['JAPANESE', 'WESTERN', 'CYRILLIC']
 */
#define DISPLAY_CHARSET_HD44780 WESTERN
