1. Download QMK toolbox here: https://github.com/qmk/qmk_toolbox/releases/download/0.0.21/qmk_toolbox.exe 
2. Install and launch 
3. Tick autoflash 
4. Open/Locate the hex file: AK75X RGB.hex
5. MCU: atmega32u4
6. Make sure you know where is the reset button of AK75X (bottom of pcb), you have to quickly press the reset button TWICE once it is connected. Use tweezers or anything to reach the reset button. Do this before the keyboard disconnected.

9. 
   
10. Done!

 

///
 The above AK75X RGB.hex is the RGB matrix version, change the lighting effect through 

    mo(1) + arrow left            Turn on / off rgb matrix lighting

    mo(1) + arrow up             Brightness up rgb matrix lighting

    mo(1) + arrow down        Brightness down rgb matrix lighting

    mo(1) + arrow right         Mode of rgb matrix lighting

 ///

 

If you prefer to have single lighting and to choose the lighting effect from RGB, kindly re-flash the following hex. Do note that you have to flash  AK75X RGB.hex first, by flashing the following AK75X.hex alone is unable to correct the error prompts earlier.

Error! > Flash with AK75X RGB.hex > (Satisfied w RGB matrix mode) > done!

Error! > Flash with AK75X RGB.hex > (if you want to choose single color) > Flash AK75X.hex again

///

Re-flash AK75X.hex for single color preference:

1. Connect your board
2. Go to QMK toolbox you downloaded earlier
   
3. Tick autoflash 
4. Open/Locate the hex file: AK75X.hex
5. MCU: atmega32u4
6. Use tweezers or anything to reach the reset button, press twice. 
7. Wait the flash 
8. 
   
9. Done!

Now you can choose single color or other lighting effect from VIA lighting tab. 

 

It is recommended to keep the underglow brightness at 50% or lower. :D

Torn not responsive, slow, unregistered, few keys registering repeatedly

 Previously has this problem where Torn encountered:

1. VIA detects Torn in an exceptional slow manner
2. The computer is still able to detect Torn as keyboard
3. The keys are not responsive, and only register few keys repeatedly

 

richardt the author suspected it is the IC problem. 

Disable IC. 

Left now working good, will need to troubleshoot R7 and R8, also TRRS Socket. 

Ordered 3 pairs of TRRS socket just in case. 

Waiting item to be received. Pending to fix.
