It won't hurt to try the others.  Also make sure in the configuration.h you have the correct board number selected.

Tnx

I chose 8Mhz, verify/compile got error compiling.

Hope that helps.

That is why I came here to seek help, that guy just builds and sells stuff and Im trying to learn on my own without his support. Hoping that this printer wont be a waste of money and my time. I was already getting low hopes but I'll make this printer work.

Was already planning to resell it but how when it doesnt work at all, its been about 6 months since I bought it.  Right now its given me good prints and the only thing I need to resolve it the fluctuating temperature. Not sure if its harware or firmware issues, re-installed repetier twice, repaired the clogging, the fan holder replaced.

Just an FYI - you said you're getting an E3D, that is definitely not an E3D hotend.

Can you post that while the printer is not in motion?  The bed output looks more like bang bang than the curves seen in your extruder.  Bang bang is adequate for a bed but not precise enough for the extruder.
