QMK Inland MK47 Guide
Flashing custom firmware - the current version QMK tool off the website won't work. You'll most likely get a "USB device connected (NO DRIVER): WB Device in DFU Mode " and not be able to flash anything. You will need the beta version that supports WB32 flashing utility. I grabbed mine from the GMMK guide QMK tool from GMMK

Sense 75 red underglow caps lock indicator
You first have to download QMK toolbox https://github.com/qmk/qmk_toolbox/releases/download/0.2.2/qmk_toolbox.exe. Once downloaded, download this bin file https://github.com/GHv4/Sense75-CAPSLOCK-UNDERGLOW/blob/main/sense75-CAPSLOCK%20UNDERGLOW.bin. Open the QMK toolbox exe file, then hit the open button. Locate the .bin file. Hold Right FN+BACKSPACE until it pops up in QMK Toolbox. Hit flash and wait for it to finish flashing. Via and Vial compatible. YOU'RE WELCOME FRIENDS!!

Can't figure out how to configure Megalodon Triple-Knob Macro Pad
I got things working by using the https://github.com/qmk/qmk_toolbox project, and the firmware file you linked. As you said, my pad now works with Vial, and has 12 layers. Though the layer selector still only traverses between layers 0 through 3.

How to work on hex file from keyboard maker?
- QMK MSYS: you'll need it for many things, for compiling your firmware file and for flashing, especially if flashing with QMK Toolbox isn't permitted in firmware settings (in this case QMK Toolbox just won't recognize your keyboard);
-
I have a Mac/Win toggle, but the flashing process always flashes Mac. Am i supposed to be able to choose which one I flash in the software? Also my volume knob doesn't work after flashing.
I am currently using the QMK online configurator tool to do the compilation and download the resulting .bin file, and then the QMK Toolbox to flash it onto the keyboard.

Finally got my CSTC75 built
Check out this site: http://kpchn.com/s/PoHJ. I found it from the AliExpress page and it leads to all the VIA/VIAL configs for the KPRepublic boards. Go into CSTC75 and you'll see a .hex file, that's the firmware. You should be able to use the QMK toolbox: https://github.com/qmk/qmk_toolbox to flash the firmware.

Did I brick my microcontrollers (Sea Picro RP2040) somehow? The bootloader is in ROM, so shouldn't be possible?
When I first plugged them in, my Mac (running 13.1 Ventura) recognized them as a USB storage device. I was trying to use the QMK toolbox to flash the firmware onto them, not realizing that I needed to drag and drop a .uf2 file instead of trying to flash a .hex file.

Should I try Keychron
you can download an installer from their github repository and install VIA onto your PC to use fully offline without a web browser

Cannot use FN + Number keys
Fn keys are generally determined by the keyboard's firmware not the OS. I have multiple 65% keebs from the likes of Ducky, Durgod & Keychron, all work just fine on Linux. You haven't said what your keyboard is but see if it's supported by via (use the appimage package) and test.

"Received invalid protocol version from device" and "Device must be open first" errors on VIA after updating firmware on K3 Pro RGB ISO
There is also a desktop version.

Hello, so I just received my K10 Pro today, but I keep on getting errors when I try to use VIA. Is this normal? Thanks!
I was able to get this working by installing the desktop version of VIA as suggested here. I am running Debian, so YMMV.

U can also use the appimage : https://github.com/the-via/releases/releases

How do I download VIA for Linux?
New to Linux so sorry if I'm a noob. I'm trying to install Via through the terminal, but I'm unsure of the package name. Also, I have the link to the GitHub page, but is installing an App Image the same as installing through a terminal?

Using VIA without Internet
I'm running a macOS Monterey computer without any Internet access whatsoever so I downloaded VIA from https://github.com/the-via/releases/releases using another laptop but everytime I run the app on my Mac all I get is a blank white screen. I've noticed that there's a connection attempt to usevia.app (104.21.58.242 or 172.67.166.71) during app launch. I've tried several versions of VIA going back to 2.0.5 but I can't seem to get the app to work. Is an Internet connection actually required to just re-map keys?
