Though apparently there are firmware changes needed for the heat sensor as well as the heater. i heard this from the place i bought my ultimaker from(fbrc8).
You can either send custom gcode to your printer.(check ultimaker forums for more info)
or you can use tinkergnomes firmware to adjust the esteps inside your printer.
I absolutely did not make any changes in the firmware for the 35W, as I don't know how to do that (yet), and I've been printing for ages this way. And the previous issues are gone.
It may be that I'm not getting the most out of the 35W this way, but my friend assures me that it is still an upgrade, and it solves the issues, and that is all I need; 3D printer keeps on printing.
I've checked on the forum about how to adjust E-steps, but most replies are 4+ years old and point to pages that no longer exist. Not helpful. Yes, they keep saying to send a custom gcode to the printer. But they don't say how, and what this code should say.
Getting out a, to me completely new, software like tinkergnomes firmware to adjust 1 setting seems a bit much, and I would like to avoid that.
(FYI, I have 2 printers, and one of them had the 35W upgrade and the other is getting the Bondtech extruder)
