Bluetooth Connection Unstable
Hello, I've been facing repeated issues with bluetooth connection stability on my Corne and my PC. This is only on my PC, and works fine on my macbook. I've tried a multitude of solutions, some of which work for a little, but then I run into the same problems.
I've tried:
- Setting
CONFIG_ZMK_BLE_EXPERIMENTAL_CONN=y
and CONFIG_BT_CTLR_TX_PWR_PLUS_8=y
. These improved things for a few days, but now I'm facing some of the same issues.
- Replacing my bluetooth antenna. I use a third party external wifi/bluetooth antenna on my PC, as I have an ITX motherboard that doesn't have one built in. I replaced my old one which had seemed to fix the problem for a few months, but now I'm facing the same problems....Battery on left side not charging.
Hello guys! Recently I bought the Lily58. I'm very happy with it! But I noticed that the left side it's not charging. No idea why tbh. At the beggining I thought it could be the battery. But now I don't think so anymore. I bought new batteries and to confirm that one side charges, I switch the batteries from side to side and it's working fine in the right side.
I also noticed that the orange light (when it's charging) it's visible only on the right side. When I connect the cable in the left side the orange light blink 1 times and turn off. The keyboard works with the cable but not charging any % of battery. Any idea what could happen? Btw, I'm um using pins that are not solded to the board, so I think I have not broken anything by mistake 😆
Any idea what could be the issue?...
Corne 6 Column left side has only some keys working
Hey all. Running a 6 coloumn with the nice!nano. Was having bluetooth connectivity issues the last couple days. Went through some trouble shooting and got it fixed, including flashing new bootloader via adafruit, and a refreshing the firmware. Got the bluetooth fixed but now randomly only the keys that are in the squares on the left side of the keyboard are working. This is a presodered board with the no solder pins for the controllers. Running on MacOS
Corne 6 with premium case - row no longer works after charging
Hello! After reading through the posts, I believe I'm also experiencing the ESD issue when charging my Corne keyboard with the premium case. This has happened to me twice on the left half of my Corne, with two different nice!nano controllers.
The first time, the middle row stopped working, and the second time, it was the bottom row. I've debugged the issue using a multimeter and confirmed there is continuity between the switches and the pins. I also tried shorting the offending row pin with a few column pins, but nothing registered.
In both instances, the row stopped working immediately after I disconnected the USB cable....
Charging cable requirement
Hi there, is there any requirement for the charging cable when charging a “nice!nano plus nice!view” corne?
I came from a Logitech MX keys Mini keyboard, and wondering is it okay to use its charging cable to charge my corne? Would this cause some issues the corne in the long run?
Thank you very much for your help!...
Corne 6 Column with premium case has random delay in communicating the key press to the computer
I finished building the keyboard and no matter which half I am using there exist this random delay between key press and it registering on the computer. Anyone has any idea how to debug/fix?
No solder spring header installation
Hi guys, I’m building my first ever corne from Typeractive, feeling really excited now!
I was reading the installation guide of nice!nano from https://docs.typeractive.xyz/build-guides/corne-wireless/nice-nano.
It says for No-Solder Hotswap headers, I only need to insert them into the top of PCB, but since there are two ends of a solderless header and the pins on each end has pretty much the same length. I am not sure which end should be attached to PCB? ...

Corne 6col is not detected as a drive when connected via USB
ZMK studio is detecting my Corne 6col using USB but it is not showing as a drive so I can update the firmware that I have built. Any guidance on figuring out the problem?
Charged Corne 6col overnight and battery is never above 68
I received my Corne, set it up and it is not going above 60% charge. what can be the cause?
nice!nano’s not charging my batteries.
I bought these batties off amazon to use on my split keyboard handwired build.
The batteries had some charge when I installed them, and both nice!nanos do work with batteries and power on, but they do not seem to be able to charge the batteries at all.
I left them plugged overnight and still no charge....
Nice!view not working with one of my nanos
I just bought (order TA15581) a wireless corne and everything seems to be working except one of the displays, which shows static.
The display was originally installed on the left. I swapped it with the working display from the right side and the left side continued to be the problem, so I think the display itself is fine.
I then swapped the nanos and the problem followed the left-side nano to the right-side....

Keyboard not working.
I have tried with multiple nice!nanos, and had success flashing the firmware on the boards, but I cannot get both halves to connect. The left half connects to the computer but cannot get the right to connect to the left. Only a few keys actually work on the left half. The niceviews also dont display any info, sometimes they do but they mainly just show a pixilated screen.
Row and column of Corne stopped working
Hi, I have been happily using my Corne keyboard for 2 years. Just now I think I transferred some static when touching my keyboard, I saw a spark. Now the EDC column and bottom thumb row stopped working (see screenshot). Do I need to get a new controller or pcb? Or is there a way to save this? 😬

Lily58 Linux Troubleshooting
Hello! I've just finished building my Lily58 kit and installing the firmware. Everything seems to work ok when connected to my Android phone. However, while I can seemingly pair with my laptop, once connected the keyboard does not type!
I am running Arch Linux on a Thinkpad X280, and using bluetoothctl....
1 column of lily58 not working
I've had this board for quite a while now (almost a year) and suddenly the left-most column of the board is not working. I have a multi-meter and a decent understanding of how the keyboard works. I think I've ruled out it being the nice nano, I'm pretty sure it's an issue with the pcb.
I've disassembled the keyboard and there's no obvious issues. BTW I'm using the solder-free headers and I have hot swap sockets, so I doubt it's a solder joint issue (I don't see anything)...
help overriding pins config
I have nice_nano_v2 with damaged GPIO 5. I rewired row 2 of corne to use pin 0 (by adding wire between pins) and modified corne shield definition in zmk source code file "zmk/app/boards/shields/corne/corne_left.overlay" (I build locally).
How can I achieve same effect, but through user-config?...
Left half of wireless Corne won't turn on
Hi, recently finished a first build. Both sides were able to be flashed with firmware, but only the right half turns on with battery power when the switch is on (up). The left half works while plugged in to USB. I used no-solder headers and all pins look to be making contact.
One thing I noticed is perhaps the battery plug is incorrect? See the picture where the red is not aligned to the positive (+) insert for the left side. On the right board the red goes to positive. The jack seems like it can only go in one way, so it's not as if I can flip it. Is this the issue or is there something else?
Thanks!...

Connecting to Linux machine
Hello, I am trying to connect my 5-col wireless Corne to my linux desktop PC (fresh install) and it is not showing up on the device list to pair. It works fine pairing with other devices and I have another keyboard which paired with no problem. I have already cleared the BT profile. It seems that it might just not be showing the “Corne” name but I do not know how to pick it out of all the other random addresses.
