long story short , after MyAsus suggested update of file ROG KB Firmware Update tool V2.2.4 now my amazing Zephyrus GX701GWR IS KEYBOARD DEAD !!!! And no file to downgrade or update anywhere in the Asus website ! Shame ASUS !!!
How can this be done ? and not having a single ROGKBFWupdate tool in the website for this model to at least flash an older bin ????
Sure, i can find some these ROGKBFWupdate tool to save some models with some fw ( example saved a friends G531 with this : F0NK1100.G531GD.416 ), but not with the bin of my GX701 …. Do you (ASUS) really think that everyone is dumb ?!? and cant flash manually the keyboard ? at least until you came with the fix ????
SHAME , LAME SUPPORT AND TERRIBLE WAY OF MAKING EXPENSIVE COMPUTERS USELESS !! MINE HAD COST MORE THAN 2500 EUROS !!

Hi guys, I finally managed to fix my GL703VM. Not thanks to Asus support!
First of all:
I am not responsible for any damage you might do to your hardware!
Please keep in mind this is not a official fix! I just managed to do it by myself. So please keep in mind that you may brick your keyboard.
I only have done this because I was without any other options!
Here what I have done:
1) Download ASUS Keyboard Adjustment Tool from Other session (Driver and tools from Asus website):
https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/GamingNB/GM501GS/KBFWUpdateTool_v1.0.5_forSupportSite.zip
2) Install 7zip
3) Extract KBFWUpdateTool_v1.0.5_forSupportSite.exe
4) Click with right button on KBFWUpdateTool_v1.0.5 and click on 7zip > Extract here
5) Open fw folder
6) Create a copy of the file: GL703GE.220.0
7) Rename it to file: GL703VM.220.0
😎 Go back and execute the ROGKBFWUpdateTool.exe file
9) Be happy with your working keyboard 😄
Hope it can help you guys! And Asus, you really need to improve your support!!

Finally, I've tried everything :
-Install Windows again
-Many differents versions of AURA on MS and asus website
-
and this makes everything works right away. Just change GL703GE.220.0 (In my case GL503VD.220.0) let the update finish and the keyboard will start to blink.
Thank you karl.frascari for this!!

Hello!
I am one of the owner of ROG STRIX 2 GL504GW.
I had this problem last december and I literally done everything to fix this problem.
I had to re-installed the windows OS, Updated BIOS, almost everything.
But still, I couldn't solve this problem.
So I choose to visit the service center for the last option.
And they told me there was a problem on keyboard firmware and this one occurs really frequently on this model.
However, ASUS doesn't provide the hotfix for the GL504GW. (I have no idea why)
and service engineer said whenever this happens, I should visit the service center everytime.
and even before the 2 months pass, the firmware bugged again.
And I found your hotfix, and It worked really good!
Even though The Keyboard's LED doesn't show the right color despite managing Aura Creator.
and Fn+F9 (Switching Screens), Volume keys, mute key and Armory Crate key don't work, Still, It seems like a good first aid firmware for the urgent laptop users.
I will visit ASUS customer service center on monday, and I will ask them for the firmware program for GL504GW.
I am really appreciated for your share for the first aid hot fix.
Thank you so much!
