Drop ALT Bricked after trying to flash it
tl;dr my keyboard stopped working after flashing it and I can't get it to work again. Okay so I've owned my Drop ALT for about a year and I always toggled the LEDs with the hotkeys. I decided I want to set them in a more permanent way, so I followed Drop's instructions to flash my keyboard. I followed the instructions on my macbook pro, I create the bin file, I ran the Drop Keyboard Configurator. I tried press Fn + B but it didn't do anything so I went ahead and pressed the pin in the back. The bootloader script exited as if everything work fine, but my keyboard stopped working. I couldn't use it to type, and the LEDs were blinking. Note: they were blinking to the new colors I had configured. Anyways, I tried unplugging and re-plugging many times to no avail. I then tried plugging it into my Windows PC. There, instead of blinking, it would never light up but instead Windows would keep playing the chime to indicate that a USB device was disconnected, and it would do so repeatedly...
