How to install the battery flat on the PCB.

Hi, I’m wondering how I can get the battery to stay flat on the pcb? When I install the microcontroller it kept on getting pushed out by the battery. This issue doesn’t appear on the other half of the keyboard.

Board recognized in BT + USB + ZMK studio, but wont type

I have a lilly58 that I cannot get working for the life of me. I have check that there are no shorts between any pins (except the ground pics ofc). The device is recognized in ZMK studio and I am able to connect it to my laptop (Macbook Air M1) when the device is plugged in. The device also appears in /dev/tty.*. I am using the Typeractive provided uf2 files, and my finder says that there is a transfering issue when flashing the firmware, but I assume that that is not a concern (per the instru...

Bottom row on left half not working

I recently got a corne and while the left half was plugged in, the bottom row stopped working. I tried re-flashing and it still doesn't work. It seems like this is a somewhat common issue since I've seen others with the same problem. I'm using the premium aluminum case and no-solder nanos. Is there anything I can do to fix or do I just need to get a new nano? Thanks!...

Thumb row Issues

I am having some trouble with the the keys in the thumb cluster on my wireless corne. I have isolated the issue to the nice!nano controller, by swapping the controllers and re flashing the firmware. The issue started on the left thumb cluster, and migrated to the right when I swapped controllers. The keys are unresponsive, and the largest thumb key (which when held sends a Shift modifier) seems to be held down. I have tested the continuity between the P0.11 and P1.11, P1.13 and P1.15 pins on the board and didn't see that they had continuity. I reflowed the solder on those pins and can't see that there are any shorts between pins there....

RGB?

Will there ever be a variant with RGB?

Nice!View OLED Panel just showing noise

So I worked through a Firmware flashing issue. Essentially, I think my PC blocked the flashing and I was able to flash from another device. However, now I’m getting just noise with both OLEDs. I checked the solder, desoldered and resoldered. Did so at 270C. The board did take a beating doing so. Is it possible that the OLED board is the culprit and I just need replacements? I ordered a couple more OLED panels just in case, but wanted to reach out to see if there is anything else I’m missing.

Screw stuck in standoff

I was installing the top screw that goes on top of the cover for the nice view and into the standoff and at some point it stopped screwing into it. I don’t know if I screwed it in wrong but I’m trying to get it out to rescrew it but I can’t seem to get it out. Anyone know how to take this out or a get a replacement standoff?

nice!view burnt out?

I went to update my firmware on my corne to get the latest display UI and it seems one of my screens is not displaying as expected. Screen worked fine and as expected up until the firmware change. Has anyone had a screen burn out? Context: Have had the corne ~2 years and been running the same firmware about that same amount of time. Troubleshooting attempted:...

Column not working.

The right most column on the left half of my corne just stopped working. This nice nano was already replaced for a similar issue by @Mike , but seems to be happening again.

Qmk Compatability

Thinking of getting the Corne Choc with Nano but concerned with compatibility of my keymap.c file I have built with QMK. Is there any way to create an emulator to test out whether my config will be compatible? I am using: One Shot Layers / Modifiers Layer and Mod Tap...

Column not working

After soldering new sockets and headers on my right side there is a pin no longer connected to the keys on the pcb. Specifically there is no continuity to the p1.13 pin from the switches. Since I am testing internal connections I don’t think this can be a soldering issue, so is it likely that I damaged my board in the process? I can’t see any damage but the new sockets could be covering it I guess

Right side is not working!!

I was putting a case to the left side and I disconnected it I disconnected the USB-C first and after the wire that connects both parts I finish putting the case and when I connected the right side It was good, but the left side was not working. What should I do? There’s a solution? (Sorry for my bad English)

Help w/ Wireless Corne 42 Choc

Hi yall, have the corne choc with the nice!views and nice!nano, and I'm mostly loving it. But a few questions coming up and hoping someone could help point me in the right direction: But a few questions coming up: - I bought a switch lite case thinking it would fit, and it just barely doesn’t fit probably because of the 6th column which I don’t even use. Can I snap off and buy/build a new case?...
