Max FALCON-20 RGB Programmable Mini Macropad

I've had this sitting in storage since I bought it and I planned on using it after completing my setup... It seems both usb micro ports are busted. I have to hold the cable in a certain position for the pc to recognize the usb device.. Is it possible to fix both ports?

On the programming side, I needed more code than I could provide with their software, so I mapped the 20 keys to the normal function keys F1-F20. I then had a coder write me a little resident app that intercepts Function keys (even from the normal keyboard) and interprets them as I needed. It also puts a row of clickable function keys F1-F12 on the screen, so I can use them if needed.

To protect the bottom of my keypad, I bought a 10x15cm (4x6 inch) wooden picture frame for 3€. I threw away the backing, kept the glass, and drilled a hole for the cable. The keypad fits perfectly (reversing the frame), with just enough extra room for the fat part of the cable. An easy solution, and it looks great.
