ArmoryCrate UPDATE aio is back in control 10/14/2019

Rogers.

Today a update has being push to the ARMORY CRATE users.

Please. make the the update as it appear and take notes as follows IF you have some issues

Notes.
1. DO NOT USE any type of windows registry programs. (sorry: I do not care, Just do not use it)
2. There are 2 update. and boot it appears that is not working. IF on restart appears again MAKE again the update. (should be 2 )
3. In the case the 3 reboot and some missing modules like the aio. follow my fix below. (we are working to make a runtime inside the app with my fix since is working 99% of the times and has being test)
4. I repeat again. DO NOT USE any type of registry cleaning programs with Armory Crate. These is NOT a app to control lights. Is a app to reprogram a ROM base application to the AURA chip on our board. it is call the AURA CHIP.
5. Most issues are related on legacy boot. Make sure that UEFI is all the way. (CSM disable and UEFI BOOT ONLY)
6. these is test made using 100% asus products. I have NO idea if these work on a stand alone app like using another brand of products like motherboard gpus etc hybrid use i have to take notes. Please i want to hear these from all)

I am using 100% OEM drivers from my CODE XI. I will test these on the Formula XI and HERO XI since i have my own testing team with 100% identical machines. For the moment no x570 so i have to digg my own group on Facebook to check on those feedback. the app is available as a stand alone with the aio and some new devices. I think the ROG ARMORY will eventually support legacy products only. and i suspect these is the route to be follow. I do not work with ASUS or get paid. I am just a user that all that offer my free time to check debug and test the app since the ArmoryCrate start last year.

I will take ONLY z390 (ROG TUFF) and I will create a post ONLY for these. Please be gentile and direct since I am reporting to specific people that want these work. x570 make sure last bios is in, CSM DISALBE and full UEFI is in. These is importat. On AMD everyone as to be there anyways. Unless you are using LINUX that requiere legacy. for that I am sorry no idea if these can work. but so far is UEFI all the way.

Also and just in case. These are the list of working (10/14/2019) peripherals compatible. For the moment until i can get some cash i can not test the monitor functions. But some DO appear since my best friend has one. Eventually i will get more gear to test.

Some new modules will be added to the audio department and some fan control but we need to be patience.

For the users that starting to use the Armory Crate. In order to these to work. you have to uninstall (DO NOT use cleanners) the aura app before using the crate.

1. open c
2. open program files (x86)
3. open lighting service
4. delete file name LastProfile.XML
5. empty recycle bin
6.Open Services (windows logo type services
7. Find LightingService and restart that service, and restart the computer. IF the service is stop start the service and right away restart and restart the computer.

List of compatible peripheral. NOTE the Spatha will NOT make the list. The Clarymore is still on works, I will ask later but i think will not make the list. Here is the list

Keyboard
ROG STRIX Flare / ROG STRIX Scope / ROG STROX Flare COD / ROG STRIX Flare PNK

Mouse:
ROG Gladius II Origin / ROG Gladius II / ROG STRIX Impact / ROG Gladius II Origin COD / ROG Gladius II Origin PNK

Mouse Pad:
ROG Balteus Qi (ONLY for the moment)


There is still a lot to be done.
1. Armory crate at boot there is some idle. YES not much. 10% you will see a some power on red. On idle is 2.3% and use 12.6mb of memory and around 1% of gpu.
2. Some functionally is still buggy and does not affect
3. on keyboard and mouse that are link to aura, will NOT be accessible until aura is sync. that is why on keyboards compatible there is a module for MACROS. and on the aio the light tap is void until the aura is link. the rest will work independent of the aura is sync or not.
4. I have to test the mouse. I have 1 in coming from the list, So i can test the module.

Aside these thanks. asorry for my English.

I will assume that you create the changes then save creation so the profile can be selected before close the app correct?

Yes that is correct, if I create a custom profile and click save it will stick the fan in its last speed it was when I close the Armoury Crate window. The same goes for using the presets. Try creating a profile that under light load will cause the fan to go to 100%. Save it and close the window. Use a program to apply load and nothing will happen. Same if you close the window while the profile has the fans spun up. Even when the temp returns to idle the fans are still spun up.

Its kinda hard to help ppl without knowing the Status of Armoury Crate. Best would be a remote access or asus would make a proper installation software with uninstall options. Even if u uninstall Crate there are many services left

Crate is in the right direction!!
Unfortuntly I uninstalled Asus Aura completly. Installed latest Crate - all works fine except the rgb controls - Crate doesnt find any devices :s

Installed Aura again - tried both 1.0.7.57 and the .71? ones but still no devices detected 😕

So, Crate is having the same issues as Asus Aura then?

Specs:
Win 10 pro
Asus Maximus X Hero Z370
8086K
Gskill trident-z rgb
Strix OC 1080Ti

The Main problem is there is no proper uninstaller for hole asus Software. If u uninstall Aura sync you have uninstall Aura service too or both get mixed. Crate will install a other Aura service. My suggestion uninstall Aura sync and Aura service in apps and wait till Crate will prompt the update for Aura service *

Tried that as well. Uninstalled, restarted PC, used Aura cleaner from Asus, restarted, installed Crate, no updates for Aura Service.

Only version of Aura that works is the old 1.x.x.17 and Crate installed afterwards. But then Crate wants to update my Gladius 2 mice and strix keyboard in infinity 😕 Update runs fine and get pr8mpted to reboot - after reboot it wants to install same updates again.

All updates installed
Z390A 1302
Armoury Crate 2.5.6.0
All Aura setings runs...ok...all Lights turns lika a rainwow

Pump-cooler turns 100% high speed....big noises

Resume....all systems runs on Crate
because without FAN-Control 😞

Any luck with Strix LC 360 AIO? I am running:
Maximus IX Hero (Z270)
Strix 1080Ti OC
Strix Flare Keyboard
ROG Spatha Wireless Mouse

I am aware that the mouse is straight unsupported. But I was let down that my brand new LC 360 AIO does not function at all. In Asus Aura, Asus Armoury, or Asus Armory Crate the AIO is completely undetected and does not light up.

I also double checked the internal USB 2.0 header that it is plugged into and the 2.0 header functions properly when hooked up to other devices

My BIOS on the Z270 board is a little out of date, I can update that if you guys think it might help. Hopefully someone else has had better luck with this AIO and can steer me in the right direction

But how do you get the 2.5.6.0 version that I can't get beyond the 2.4.9.0 version, I tried again to uninstall and reinstall several times but I don't move from this version
