Lifted pads on through holes for microcontroller

Hi, while desoldering my microcontroller it looks like I ripped off the circular pads for 4 of the pins for the microcontroller, on the top side. Note the bottom side looks normal and doesn’t suffer this issue. Is this a problem? How can I check that this still works before soldering on a new microcontroller?...

I've got money to spend on Typeractive.xyz, how can I wireless-ize my Corne 3?

I think I need two Nice!Nano v2s, and a battery, and maybe some headers. But I'm wondering if the battery (hopefully) will go under or over the mcu cause the case is slim and there is no room under the pcb for a battery. Also, can I buy two Nice Views to go on top of the batteries and controllers? Thanks in advance for any help.

Bill of Materials to Convert Wired Split Sofle to Wireless with on/off switches?

I would like to convert my wired split Sofle keyboard to wireless with on/off switches. What would I need to buy from you to do this? 2 nice nanos, 2 LiPo batteries, 2 sockets, 2 switches. Anything else I'm missing? Is there a kit available with all of these materials?

Device recognized over USB but not bluetooth

Just trying with the left half of my new corne since I have some desoldering to do on the right. I am able to connect over USB and even paired to bluetooth while connected to USB but when I unplug it nothing happens. It also seems to go into the bootloader and mount as a disk with only one press instead of two. Pretty sure everything is soldered fine and without shorts.

Peripheral (right side) Nice!View theme

What causes the theme to change on the peripheral (right side) Nice!View display? The theme seemed to spontaneously change from the Hot Air Balloon theme to the Mountain View theme. I haven't figured out what triggered it. I'm using the most recent default firmware downloaded from the typeractive website. Thanks in advance....

Left side (set as peripheral) battery drains within a day

Hi. I've been having some trouble with the left side of my Corne. The battery seems to drain pretty much within a day. I can leave it charging overnight so that it's full in the morning, and by mid-afternoon it's dead. I verified that it is in fact the battery by enabling reporting from the peripheral, and I grabbed a third party macOS utility that displays it. I can see that the right hand side is basically full and the left hand side is pretty much empty. Is this likely to be a problem with the battery or something else? I should add that I began with the no solder headers but experienced endless trouble with them, and so I soldered everything together using the provided headers. Everything has been much more stable since then, but the power issue has not resolved. That makes me think it's unlikely to be a bad connection because I was experiencing the issue before with the no solder headers—and after having soldered them. I've been having this issue pretty much since day one....

niceview possibly doa

Hi folks, I have just completed my Lily58 build. It appears however one of the niceview panels is doa. I have reflowed the solder on the unit to no success, swapping the unit from the right unit works perfectly. Any ideas what I can do?...

Lilly58 single key delayed input, or no input unless pushing hard.

Hey guys! I built my Lill58 a few weeks ago, and it's been good so far. As I have been using it more, I noticed that I have two keys next to each other (k and l) that work most of the time, but often I find myself missing them when typing and noticed that I have to push harder to get them to register a keystroke. When I push harder, it also often sends two keystrokes as well. PCB is pre-soldered. I added extra solder to the microcontroller to ensure it has a solid contact (it seems it does), but I am still not sure how to debug this next....

cant flash firmware on MacOS

I made a new zmk keymap, and everytime I try to drag and drop it into the NICENANO drive or even move it with the terminal, I get this error: The Finder can’t complete the operation because some data in “corne_left nice_view_adapter nice_view-nice_nano_v2-zmk.uf2” can’t be read or written. (Error code -36)...

Issues with mapping backspace in ZMK Studio

For some reason backspace will not work when added to any key using ZMK studio. Trying to work out why backspace is an issue. Using Windows and a wireless typeractive corne. I have the board plugged in via USB when mapping it. All other keycodes have worked just fine apart from backspace. Any ideas?

5 col vs 6 col

I'm new to Corne keyboards and to zmk. I've just built a 5 col Corne from Typeractive, and now looking to do the fun part, programming it. I see different methods in play. Joe Scotto says clone the repo, build it, and use the artifacts. Typeractive website provides compiled firmware, which I needed to use to get ZMK Studio to work wirelessly. The repo gives a keymap for a 6 col Corne. Any guidance would be appreciated.

Case Standoff Size: Mx vs. Choc

Do the sizes for the case standoffs differ for Mx vs. Choc switches? I recently assembled an Mx kit and the standoffs that were included seem to be too small to fasten the case together. Not sure if there are different sizes for the standoffs given the bigger switches or if this is just user error on my part.

Battery Issues on New Lily58

I can't seem to charge my Lily58's to over 90% and most times, not even over 80%. They seem to drop charge way faster than advertised (half a week for left side and a week and a half for the right side). They also erratically display random numbers for the battery when I turn them on and off. Sometimes the number goes up after an on off cycle. Sometimes it goes down. Is this normal?

Machine socket missing pin holder

I’m building my corne keyboard and I noticed that one of the hot socket pin holders for the nice!nabo is missing. Am I fucked? Do I need this it says GRD so I’m assuming it’s the ground pin 😐 my other one is fine

Does the no-solder hot swap need to be soldered on the board if ordered separately?

I am considering ordering a Corne custom board first with just an acrylic cover for the headers and then later ordering a no-solder hot swap and nice!view, are those able to be attached later without soldering? Thanks!

Corne homerow modes

How can I control the delay of tapping and holding homerow mods, right now if I tap a HRM and another key fast, non gets registered, or they get registered as a hold HRM + tap other key like shift + a.
