My Akko 5087S QMK keyboard stops working after restart unless I replug it. What should I do?

Please be aware that different keyboards require specific firmware versions, and flashing an incorrect firmware can damage your keyboard and potentially void your warranty.

Important: This firmware is only for the 5087S QMK version. Do NOT use it on other models like 5075/5087B — it will brick your keyboard and void the warranty.

  1. Download the Correct Firmware
    Download the appropriate firmware for 5087S QMK from the following link: 5087S QMK Firmware.
  2. Open QMK Toolbox
    • Launch the QMK Toolbox software from the download file.
    • If this is your first time using QMK Toolbox, follow the on-screen instructions to install any necessary drivers.
  3. Locate the Firmware
    • In the QMK Toolbox, click the “Open” button to browse for the .bin firmware file you downloaded.
    • Ensure that this firmware file matches your keyboard model.
  4. Enter Bootloader Mode
    • Disconnect the USB cable from your keyboard.
    • While holding down the ESC key, reconnect the USB cable.
    • Confirm that the “Flash” button in QMK Toolbox is active (it should appear black), indicating the keyboard is in Bootloader mode.
  5. Flash the Firmware
    • In Bootloader mode, click the “Flash” button in QMK Toolbox to initiate the firmware update.
    • Wait until the message “OK” appears, confirming the firmware update is complete.
  6. Exit Bootloader Mode
    • After flashing, click the “Exit DFU” button in QMK Toolbox.
    • You may then close the QMK Toolbox software.
