Free, open firmware for the AD5X.
Kiln OS is a free replacement for the firmware that comes on the Flashforge Adventurer 5X (AD5X). It is open: anyone can read how it works, and its parts are built from open software such as Klipper, Moonraker, Fluidd and HelixScreen. It runs the printer from a web page (Fluidd) and from the touch screen, supports the four-colour IFS filament unit, and includes a recovery system that can bring the printer back if an update or start-up goes wrong. Kiln OS is not made by or endorsed by Flashforge. Installing it replaces the printer's firmware, so read the install page first and back up your files.

A good report says what you were doing, what you expected, and what happened instead. If you can, add the log files from Fluidd (the Klipper log, and wifi.log for Wi-Fi problems). Do not post passwords or Wi-Fi keys in a report.
