UHK80 "Messenger message pool space ran out"

[dstodev]

Hello,

My UHK80 is configured like:

• Latest firmware (12.3.5)
• With batteries, but connected to PC via USB-C cable
• With bridge cable connected

When I was playing a game earlier, using the WASD keys, the S key got stuck continually being emitted, and then the board stopped responding.

The display on the right half displays the message "Messenger message pool space ran out!":

Resetting the halves via reset button on the back fixed the issue for now.

Thanks for the report!

We know about it, although we are still in the dark as to the exact cause.

BTW, @kareltucek , there's a typo in the message. "Messanger" => "Messenger"... not the most pressing issue, I know 😉

[kareltucek]

Actually, given its etymology and knowing myself, I don't think it is a typo ☺️

Another datapoint, USB connect to the right side, batteries disconnected, just got this error for the first time. Also running 12.3.5

Keyboard has been on and in use all day, I had noticed later in the day I was getting some occasional but inconsistent sluggishness in responding to layer keys. Hard reset by unplugging and replugging USB fixed it

I also just noticed my error is identical except for where their screenshot shows R 15, mine shows R 16

Have gotten this message twice now, I didn't take note of the values on the second line the first time, but did the second time. My message was the same, with the only difference being mine showed R 50. Prior to both, the keyboard stopped responding. Same environment as OP.

Happened to me just now as well on firmware 12.3.5. Same message but with R 14 on the display.

I was typing a chat message and it started repeating the a key. No modifiers pressed. My keyboard has batteries. Normally unplugging it will make the keyboard turn off. In this state, it stayed on. Pressing the reset button fixed it.

I installed 12.3.5 a few days ago, up from 12.3.1, so it seems like a regression between those versions. Fellow dev here, so I understand how these things go. Thanks for an awesome keyboard.
