It sounds like you're having trouble getting Bluetooth working on your Corne. Since you've already flashed the firmware, let's go through some troubleshooting steps for pairing.
ZMK uses "profiles" to manage device connections. Each profile is a slot for a device to pair with. When a profile is active and unpaired, it advertises itself. Once paired, it saves a "bond" for secure reconnection. If you clear the bond on either the keyboard or the device, you'll need to clear it on the other side too.
To clear the bond on the keyboard, press the
&bt BT_CLR key. You can find this key in your keymap. Our default keymap is available in the firmware section of the Corne build guide: https://docs.typeractive.xyz/build-guides/corne-wireless/firmware
ZMK supports up to five profiles. You can switch between them using &bt BT_SEL <profile number> (0-4) or cycle with &bt BT_NXT and &bt BT_PRV. A device cannot be bonded to multiple profiles. Try cycling through all profiles and clearing the bond on each one.
If you've ensured the profile is active and has no existing bonds, try these steps:
1. Make sure the keyboard is turned on using the power switch. The blue LED on the nice!nano should blink when you press reset if it's getting power.
2. Confirm your device supports at least BLE 4.2.
3. If it's a split keyboard, ensure you're pairing to the left half. The right half connects to the left.
4. Try pairing with a mobile phone. This can help determine if the issue is with the keyboard or your device.
