# TGR Alice
![TGR Alice](https://i.imgur.com/cJohEqS.jpg)
An ergonomic 60% keyboard.
Keyboard Maintainer: [Felipe Coury](https://github.com/fcoury)
Hardware Supported: TGR Alice
Hardware Availability: Group buy finished
Make example for this keyboard (after setting up your build environment):
make alice:default
See [build environment setup](https://docs.qmk.fm/#/getting_started_build_tools) then the [make instructions](https://docs.qmk.fm/#/getting_started_make_guide) for more information.
ps2avrGB keyboard firmware
==========================
This keyboard uses the port of the QMK firmware for boards that are based on the
ps2avrGB firmware.
Note that this is a complete replacement for the firmware, so you won't be
using Bootmapper Client to change any keyboard settings, since not all the
USB report options are supported.
## Installing
First, install the requirements. These commands are for OSX, but all you
need is the AVR toolchain and `bootloadHID` for flashing:
```
$ brew cask install crosspack-avr
$ brew install --HEAD https://raw.githubusercontent.com/robertgzr/homebrew-tap/master/bootloadhid.rb
$ pip install pyusb
```
Then, with the keyboard plugged in, simply run this command from the
`qmk_firmware` directory:
```
$ make alice
$ bootloadHID -r alice_default.hex
```
## Setting the board to bootloader mode
Hold the ESC key (the one before the 1! key, in case you remaped it).
## Troubleshooting
From my experience, it's really hard to brick these boards. But these
tricks have been useful when it got stuck in a weird scenario.
1. Try plugging the board in while holding the bootloader key. This will force
it to boot only the bootloader without loading the firmware. Once this is
done, just reflash the board with the original firmware.
2. Sometimes USB hubs can act weird, so try connecting the board directly
to your computer or plugging/unplugging the USB hub.

An ergonomic 60% keyboard.

Make example for this keyboard (after setting up your build environment):
make tgr/alice:default
Flashing
ps2avr(GB) boards use an atmega32a microcontroller and a different bootloader. It is not flashable using the regular QMK methods.
**Reset Key:** Hold down the key located at `K00`, commonly programmed as `Esc` while plugging in the keyboard.
Windows:
1. Download [HIDBootFlash](http://vusb.wikidot.com/project:hidbootflash).
2. Place your keyboard into reset.
3. Press the `Find Device` button and ensure that your keyboard is found.
4. Press the `Open .hex File` button and locate the `.hex` file you created.
5. Press the `Flash Device` button and wait for the process to complete.
macOS:
1. Install homebrew by typing the following:
```
/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
```
2. Install `crosspack-avr`.
```
brew cask install crosspack-avr
```
3. Install the following packages:
```
brew install python3
pip3 install pyusb
brew install --HEAD https://raw.githubusercontent.com/robertgzr/homebrew-tap/master/bootloadhid.rb
```
4. Place your keyboard into reset.
5. Flash the board by typing `bootloadHID -r` followed by the path to your `.hex` file.
