Title: Need Help - NEW pcb not working
Post by: gandalftw on Sun, 19 March 2023, 01:36:18
Hi,

I ordered a kit from Aliexpress (unfortunately).

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005003816846952.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.70.1bda18026nyACz

Trying to use VIA and it won't find the pcb, from my understanding you need first to flash the pcb with the qmk firmware.
using the yd60mq_16led_via.hex provided in the pdf of the product brakes the pcb.
after firmware flashed non of the keys are working (keyboard tester) but via is able to see the pcb as YD60MQ.

to my understanding this firmware is not compatible with this pcb

hope someone can help because I couldn't find any firmware that will work with this pcb

The correct firmware should be Oni HHKB but I can't find any match for this name

A popular keyboard format (abbrev, 3 letters) which omits the numberpad normally present on a fullsize keyboard:

Is there an option on Aliexpress to talk to customer service? They might know how to solve it.
