My ticket got updated earlier today, a fix is supposedly coming sometime this week.

 

Great! It's currently as if the keyboard is stuck in default lighting mode, can't seem to do much or anything with it

So all keys are red except for WASD and Arrow (and brightness/windows lock)

I can change colours but the red is still there making the colours off hue

Sucks that people are having problems! I got my K70 RGB with MX Browns today and I am having these same problems.

Coming up as K95, Lights stay on after powering down and cant edit anything.

submitted a ticket to corsair, waiting to hear. Anyone solved this yet?

Response to my ticket says they are hoping for a solution in the near future, worst case is board replacement!

I have managed to get it to do some other simple profiles but only full colour ones. Nothing complicated like ripples or anything like that works properly. That may be my inability to fully understand the software as much as anything else, but I've loaded some profiles from the pages which I would have expected to get something out of....

I should clarify that Aphrox was helping me get the lighting working as a K95 which he has so thank you

Overall problem is not fixed unfortunately. Waiting for a reply to my ticket since I provided them with a photo of the bottom of my board with the tech details there

Spoke to the rep, gave a photo of serial number etc

They have informed me that they will have firmware available today for me to flash the board with to fix this

 

Hello mate.

I've been speaking with a rep also as I have the same problem. I have the

same model no. board as you and I was just wondering If you get the

firmware file with a fix would you be willing to share it with me?

Cheers bud.

I'll ask them if that will work when they send it along. It may be targeted to the serial number directly to ensure that it doesnt risk flashing any other board

Okay then mate, that would be great. Do you have the brown switches and

where did you get yours from?

Scan. I wonder how many boards have this issue

Where abouts are you in the uk then mate.

 

I've got a board from scan sat next to me, pre-ordered from both as OC said they'd have stock when it came, but Scan had 9th Oct listed. So will send one back - likely the Scan one as the OC guys gave me a lot of talk and help

 

I would imagine all or a good portion of the UK Brown boards have had this issue. Possibly they all use the same chip internally and somehow some that were flashed for a K95 got installed

Really, I take it you've tried both boards yeah?

I was pretty much thinking the same thing, they must just have the wrong chips.

Hopefully it will be an easy fix and will be soon.

Nope, as it's going back I don't want to open it unless I really have to (i.e. current board would have to be sent back)

 

They've said firmware today, so I'm tentatively excited

Fair enough, can understand that mate.

Firmware today would be fantastic, really hope it is.

Have to let me know how you get on.

Supposed to be firmware for a lot of things today so yeah

 

I've found that the dash/hyphen key does not work well though so I've raised a ticket about that now...!

 

------ only activates on pressing bottom left of the key, or bottoming out heavily, otherwise it just doesn't work
