How do you do per-key RGB lighting on a Shift V2?
I saw the online configurator that lets you do this on the Shift V1, where it spits out a compiled firmware file to flash. The V2 doesn't seem to have this function in the Windows configurator, though. I can't imagine the answer here is "you're going to have to manually write the hex for every key in QMK, compile it, and flash that".

My keyboard currently works with the initial layout present when I received it. It works on Windows 7, 8 and 10. I recognize that the layout is the default qwerty one from the massdrop configurator (https://www.massdrop.com/configurator/ergodox).
I have tried the default qwerty .hex files from the ergodox ez and from the massdrop configurators. After pressing and releasing the reset button (with a tooth pick, I was advised by the vendor to use a non conductive object), nothing happens on the teensy software (I have tried with "Auto" activated and deactivated). After that reset, the keys are not responsive any more, I have to unplug/plug and it gets responsive again with the default layout.
I have tried resetting with the "Teensy" key in the layer 2 of the massdrop default layout. When pressing the button I hear a plug/unplug sound from Windows, but no flashing happens. The two halves are well connected (I can type normally).
In summary, I am stuck with a working keyboard with the default massdrop layout and none of my many attempts to flash another layout have succeeded.
The only solution I see now is to buy a teensy and to replace the current one, but maybe there is one more thing to try ?
