Did you set the board type in the firmware's Configuration.h? This flag tells the firmware what pins various things like endstops are on, so if you set this incorrectly it would make sense that you might get junk readings.

the mboard was set to 62 (Sanguinololu 1.2 and above) by default which i believe is the correct setting (but it would explain my problems if it isnt).  it also left it set to the default solidoodle2 settings.  the chip is a 644p with a rev 1.3a sticker.  also found silkscreen on board that says Sanguinololu rev 1.3a

tried github.com/ozadr1an/Solidoodle-Marlin_v1/tree/Solidoodle_Marlin_v1_beta and still no luck with the stops.  the voltage a pins 24,25, and 26 is 0 when the limit switch is not tripped and 5 when tripped. 

i see where i can invert the logic on the config but im not sure where the actual stop logic is defined

I believe this is the Github for the latest Solidoodle-Marlin: ----

ive tried all the following with several different sanguino w/atmega644p hardware add on downloads and none work:
Solidoodle-Marlin_v1-Marlin_v1_M600, 56,988kb
solidoodle2-marlin-Marlin_v1, 59,002kb
solidoodle2-marlin-Marlin_v1, 58,994
Marlin-1.0.1, no .pde file
SolidoodleMarlin, 59002kb

is there a version of firmware rev 1.3a w/ 644p avr and sanguino  w/atmega644p hardware profile stat are known to work together?

what kills me is that i have a bit of cnc experience, a bit of avr programming experience, ans some avr tools and getting this thing running is convoluted.   i cant imagine how the mfgr expects your average joe user make this thing work.

This also fixed my y homing issue.
I guess I made some mistake when usign the newer version

There were some of those without a Bootloader this will be the second one I've come across.

I am on xp btw.
