Mono 4 and abs pro - nothing adheres to build olatr

Been trying to trouble shoot this a bit and not getting anywhere so hopefully someone can help me out. 

The printer has been running fine for about a year, and been through standard and then abs like V2. Moved to abs pro and got some part plates printed but the adhesion was getting worse and worse to the point nothing sticks to the build plate. 

I have upped the bottom layers to about 90 seconds, print encloseur warmed to 30c for over an hour and still just a print left on the fep.

I have soaked the build plate overnight I IPA and it feels rough where the patter is. What else can I do to bring this back to life? 

Few pics of the last try... This was just the cones of calibration as it was quick to print to test the adhesion.

Incomplete prints, advice appreciated

Good day to all. I have just begun using my Anycubic MonoX2 printer, but am experiencing difficulties getting to grips with resin printing.

I'd like to print this item:

https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/game/shield-generator

I first sliced it in Anycubic Workshop, but didn't check the slicer settings. Didn't place the object at an angle. Print failed. Figures, learned a lesson, so I thought.

For my second attempt I used Lychee and did check the settings. But again, my print failed.

For the slice made with Lychee I used the recommended settings by Anycubic and placed the object at a 45° degree. I use Anycubic Standard Black resin.

Furthermore, I made sure my printer was nice and warm by having my Chitubox heater on, at 27°C / 80.6°F.

I'll go ahead and try printing the test file that came with the printer, but I was wondering if anyone has an idea what I'm doing wrong.

Thanks!

PS: the print in the first picture is a cleaned and cured one, no worries.

UPDATE:

The sample file came out perfectly. I think I'll check the slicer settings of the sample file and compare it to what I have used.

Reverse pins on replacement LCD

Just bought a replacement screen for my Photon Mono 4 but the screen pins were mirrored from the original. Should I returned it? Or is there a way to connect it?

Help locateing a ribon cable replacement.

I have a anycubic photon mono 2. I have to replace the lcd screen on the printer. The ribbon cable is broken too. I can not find a replacement for it. Would anyone have a link or be able to point me in the correct direction of being able to find a replacement? Or is my printer just dead?

Leveling paper questions

My leveling paper has developed warped edges. Will this affect my leveling process? I could use regular paper according to old reddit threads, but there's a level of finesse required when leveling where you have to ensure the paper is still loose after leveling.

I'd prefer the consistency this paper provides, but im unsure if the papers ripples will cause issues.

Tank paint peeling

This is from a Photon P1 I purchased in May. ANYCUBIC was good enough to replace it, but this is a $80 tray and I don’t want to throw it away. Anyone have this issue and refurb it? I have an M7 I bought right when they came out. The tray is still golden on that printer.

upgrade Anycubic Photon Mono X 6K or not

Hello. I am wanting to get back into Resin printing for miniatures and statues. I have a Anycubic Photon Mono X 6K thats like 5 years old but its been sitting in storage all this time and I haven't touched it. I only used it a couple of times so it was like new when i put it away due to moving to place that I had not room.

Is it worth dusting off and using it or has time and technology made this a relic and its better to get a new one? Any advice would be great as I am not opposed to a new one but am really unsure how much the newest innovations make my old one obsolete.

Photon mono 4 supports not coming off

I need help! I just got a photon mono 4, and did my test print, but the supports for the model won't come off of the metal piece!

I got the test print off fine, but there's a bunch of uncured resin and hardened resin stuck to the top and bottom and I can't get it off!

Also, my print came out sticky, I'm a complete newbie so please help! I have no idea what I'm doing and I'm so stressed!
