How to flash an rp2040 pro micro

We strongly recommend flashing these before soldering.

You will need to have a QMK command line environment installed- see here: https://docs.qmk.fm/newbs_getting_started

You do not need QMK toolbox to flash RP2040 controllers.

Compile your firmware, using the converter feature:

qmk compile -kb crkbd -km via -e CONVERT_TO=rp2040_ce

qmk compile -kb lily58 -km via -e CONVERT_TO=rp2040_ce

Find the uf2 file that produced in your /qmk_firmware folder on your computer.

Plug in the controller holding the BOOT button. A folder called RPI-RP2 should pop up. Some linux distros may need to manually mount the drive.

Drag and drop the uf2 file onto this RPI-RP2 folder. It should automatically disconnect, then connect as a keyboard.

If you have forgotten to flash the controller for the first time before soldering, you can enter bootloader by connecting the BOOT hole on the back to GROUND, then plugging in the USB cable, as indicated here:

After flashing for the first time with QMK you can then enter bootloader with the usual QMK methods (reset switch, bootmagic, QK_BOOT keycode).
