try this one

[thompson-vii]

if it still doesn't work then you might have bricked the bootloader

i would check with the qmk discord then.

Mine has got bricked too during the flashing of this firmware.
Got a message "Error during download get_status (LIBUSB_ERROR_TIMEOUT" at 76% of the download.

Has anybody tried to unbrick it with "st-link v2 dongle"?

Edit on July 13, 2023:
Found the reason why it was bricked: the firmware I downloaded was 145KB (I right clicked the file on the main page then saved it, it is actually a text file! Why it works like this?) I downloaded again today and it is 60KB.
I unbricked it with "st-link v2 dongle" and flashed kb16_rev2_vial_fw again.
It is working!

Thanks to @thompson-vii for this great work!

I accidently used this on my KB-16 (1) and it works fine. Just make sure your following instructions properly

@yardern how did you manage to unbrick it with the dongle? I seem to have done something similar to mine.

@Flopalop2
Have you got the dongle? You basiclly follow this:

@yardern that is exactly the guide I was looking for. I have the dongle I just couldn't figure it out. Thanks!
