    • To locate the solder joint on the board, count the number of rows down and keys from the right or left side to the broken key/switch.

    • Flip the keyboard over so you can see the solder joints again.

    • Using the number of rows and keys from the left and right, count the solder joints which will find the solder joint you need to remove.

    • It is helpful to count from the side that has fewer keys until the broken switch—in this case from right to left (the second row and five keys to the left).

    • Heat your soldering iron up to 350 degrees celsius.

    • Caution: Remember that soldering irons get to hundreds of degrees and you should be careful to not accidentally touch your skin with it as it can cause moderate to severe burns if left long enough.

    • The two pins you need to desolder will be diagonal of each other.

    • At this point, you want to desolder both pins holding the switch. As the solder is being melted you want to use your desoldering pump to remove the solder that has been melted.

I dropped a full glass of milk on it. Took 2 hours to completely disassemble, clean, and reassemble it. It looks just like when I had it. Thanks !

A few additional points:

* If you also need to remove the lower cover from the board, the operation has a few tricky bits:

** The full-size version of the keyboard has two plastic hooks holding the cover to the board and there is no obvious way to release them. This means that even after you remove all the screws, the cover will not release. Be careful and confirm that it is just catching in the areas between the three sets of keys. They will probably break and I couldn't figure out a way to avoid it but it isn't critical and won't affect the reassembled keyboard. Just be aware of this and be aware of this.

** The power switch and the windows-key-disable switch are extremely delicate and easy to break. The switch itself is tiny and has a miniscule sliding arm sticking out that fits into the much-larger case switch cover.

to be continued because of dumb character limit. (I'm just trying to help here!)

continued...

* If you look carefully at the pictures of the solder points, you'll notice that there are two different orientations. If you, like me, want to cannibalise an unused key (such as one of the G1-6 keys or the three near-useless Print Screen, Scroll Lock, and Pause buttons, care a careful look at the broken key to see which orientation you need.

* The keycaps themselves are not that well-designed and become loose after repeated removal, no matter how careful you are. This means that if you like to vacuum your keyboard or shake out the lint, you may be in for a bit of annoyance.

* The shift and enter keys do not have adequate lateral support and you may find that, over time, they become misaligned with their adjacent keys. I think the takeaway message is to avoid Romer keys; they are just not as well-built or designed as Cherry.

Romer G's are absolutely terrible. I'm not talking about feel or function here, they feel great as long as they're working, but they break EXTREMELY easily in a way that is almost unrepairable - the little plastic "feet" that keep a keycap attached to the switch break off and get stuck in the switch, so now you have to replace both the switch and the keycap, good luck with that. After I cleaned my keyboard for the first time (removing all the keycaps from the switches), I found out I had broken like 5-10 of them, including the spacebar, and some were broken from before. The broken keys started double-clicking all the time, which is especially annoying with the spacebar, so now ky board is pretty much unusable. There's 100$ down the drain. Learn to make switches, Logitech!

Hey Nikoi, you might not read this for a while but I hope this helps. This keyboard chatter blocker program stops the double tapping entirely! https://github.com/mcmonkeyprojects/Keyb...

Does any mechanical keyswitch work on this board? Or is it just romerg?

Tim - 답글

I was wondering the same thing.. I really like the build quality of my G413 other than the horrible Romer-G and key-caps. Would love to replace every switch with something decent even it means having to de-solder and solder in new ones one by one.

Which glue to use?

Takeaway from some who tried to fix it yet failed miserably (first experience):

1. calm the heck down, be patient and solder it from enough elevation. I made mistake where I tried to solder it near bottom of PCB and somehow, they accumulated under the PCB. It's probably the main caused and lack of experience of mine, even under pretenses of adequate knowledge. hahaha.

2. when desoldering, make sure you do it hot and fast. My first time desoldering too but somehow the first pin come off easily. but the next ones were terrible. I acknowledged that perhaps I done it wrong and tilted why it doesn't come off so easily and end up several attempts to desolder it.

all in all, great experience yet failed and for those whose looking for buying this keyboard knew it's not G Pro X which hot-swapable the keycap's feet easily break so u need to be careful.
