Right Nice!View showing random pixels

Hi guys I just got my order a few days ago and I made the right half yesterday (hopefully the left half today!) I turned on the right half and flashed the firmware etc, and it is just showing random pixels most of the time. There was one thing that gave me hope, specifically, that for a few seconds, it did show the artwork at some point. ...

desoldering tips

I soldered the nice!nano boards on backwards (I know, I know...) and I'm having a hell of a time getting them off. I tried every combination of a solder sucker, flux, and a desoldering braid but even up to 350 the solder inside the hole doesn't want to come out. Is there some trick to getting it out?

Cutout display cover doesn’t fit flush

I just built the left half of my corne keyboard and I’m noticing that the display cover does not fit flush and is slightly raised toward the top part even though all of the headers have been soldered flush and pressed together. Is this normal?

is there any way to add premium corne hardware to an order?

I had to disassemble my board to figure out why my nice view wasn’t working, and a few of my screws are worryingly stripped. i’m afraid of never being able to take it apart again after putting it back together this time I will be purchasing another nice view. can I buy a full set of screws for both halves to put my mind at rest?...

Nice!Nano v2.3 no longer detected / UF2 bootloader missing

I accidentally flashed the wrong .uf2 file onto my Nice!Nano v2.3 (probably not for the correct board target). Since then, the board is no longer recognized as a UF2 device—even when pressing the reset button or double-tapping it.

GND hole in PCB not open on 1 out of 2 pcbs (Hotswap)

Hi 😄
So I just received my lily58 no-solder hotswap build kit and tried to start building it and immediately ran into an issue. Apparently 1 of the two pcbs has 1 of the GND holes filled. This prevents me from inserting the No-Solder spring headers into the pcb. A little bit of research showed me that GND stands for ground and looking at the pcb there are two of them. Is it save to say that one might be enough and I can just trim one of the pins on the spring headers or would that be a bad idea? Any ideas of how I can fix this or this just a faulty pcb? Thanks a lot in advance for the help....

Is USBC connection enough for registering keystrokes?

Hi. This is my first time soldering something and all I want to do first is getting keys registered to be sure my soldering is alright. Should the keyboard work just after plugin the usbc or must be connected to the bluetooth? All I have done until now is copying the .uf2 left and right files to them. (One weird thing is that pressing one time the button is enough for the drive to appear, it doesn't seem to be different between one or two) I plug the usb, press the button, the drive appears, copy the files, the drive dissapear and still no keystrokes are registered....

flashing firmware using github actions doesn't result in anything

Im trying to use the local ZMK + github actions methodology to create my own ZMK maps. When i build the UF2 files and flash them it does not update to the keymap i wrote locally. what could be happening? thank!

Lily58 nice!view pinouts?

I see the pinouts in https://docs.typeractive.xyz/build-guides/lily58-wireless/troubleshooting, however I don't know which pins on the n!n are routed to which ones on the nice!view when using the lily58 PCB from typeractive. I know that CS, SCK, and MOSI are each one of P0.06, P0.17, and P0.20 but I don't know which is which. Thank you!

Water damage on Corne

A coworker spilled some water on my left Corne. As a result, it's not working properly. I'd like some help troubleshooting it. Here are some details about the situation. Please let me know if you can help! - Only a small amount of water was spilled, and only on the left unit. The right unit is intact. The left unit wasn't submerged, but water did get under the screen cover and on the nice!view. Presumably some water also got onto the nice!nano. - After the incident, I removed the screen cover and the nice!view, dabbed the nice!nano with a paper towel, and tried to blow away any remaining moisture (being at work, I don't have access to canned air, fine brushes, or even a screwdriver). There are now no obvious signs of moisture on the unit, though there may still be moisture between the nice!nano and the battery. Since I don't have the right tools, I can't pry the nice!nano from its base yet. - The left unit can turn on and connect to my laptop. When it does, the right unit can connect to the left, and the whole thing works....

Keymap not updating after flashing new firmware

I setup a github repo as instructed on the ZMK official website. I also played around with the mapping with ZMK studio and all the changes would reflect immediately. However when I'm done experimenting with ZMK studio and made a complete keymap, compiled through GitHub, and flashed, nothing is changing. ZMK studio is still working. This is really confusing. I have probably spent 6 hours researching this and have had no success so far. I've tried the keymap editor Nick made, I've tried modifying the keymap in files myself, and it's all not working....

Issues remapping the backspace on lily58

I’m using the custom firmware from the GitHub. It worked fine in the initial loading on the keyboard but when I went back to remap the backspace to a different spot it stopped working. For some reason with the top right key specifically it simply doesn’t respond anymore. That said when I use the lower level keybind the key still works so I know hardware wise it’s fine. The backspace works in other location but now that key is stuck and I get this error message. I’m not sure if I’m doing steps wr...

Does the kit comes with a screw driver?

Have placed the order and it' s on the way. Just want to know if I'll need to get my own. If so what size. What I got is 6 column corne no-solder kit with regular case (not the premium aluminum one)...

Display Cover touching Nice!Nano?

If the board has no batteries or nice!view over the nice!nano should your display cover go on directly over the nano? The display cover makes some contact with the pins

How do I get standoffs if I want to print my own case?

I'm looking to get a PCB, NiceNano, and battery from yall. but I want to print my own case. Do you provide the standoffs and hardware with the order of the PCB? Or is there a way to get that stuff from you?

EZ Solder Header Pin Broke
