I think the switch probably checks for both the body colour and the buttons colour but if either of these values are off it shows white grips, but since the buttons colour is always #FFFFFF I don't see why they needed to do that (maybe it might get changed if Nintendo thinks it slows load times)
Nah it's not much of slowdown. And it also happens only the first time it gets paired or re-paired.
BTW, here's a fun fact from REing stuff:
The internal names for the Joy-Con and Pro controllers are:
So guess who is the emperor. We are.
BTW, here's a fun fact from REing stuff:
The internal names for the Joy-Con and Pro controllers are:
- Left JC: Sakyō
(左京, means "on the Emperor's left)
- Right JC: Ukyō
(右京, means "on the Emperor's right
- Pro Contr.: Raizō
(ライゾ, Japanese name)
So guess who is the emperor. We are.
So I used the program to change the body and button colors on my pro controller a few weeks ago with v3.0.1, and the handles show up as black on my switch.
Maybe that means that something isn't being written properly, but custom colors are possible. I was having problems writing the button colors on the previous version of the program after all.

Woot, can you post the colors used?
So maybe other people can also try them.
Custom colors are possible. But most people experience the white grip thing.
The thing is that there's an algorithm behind the grip handling that we don't know yet..
It's not possible to update the firmware via Windows.
You need linux with custom kernel.

Is it possible for a mac version of joy con tool kit?
Having a Windows virtual machine is probably the best option considering how many Windows only software there are in this forum
Wine works pretty well too.Having a Windows virtual machine is probably the best option considering how many Windows only software there are in this forum

Wine is far from perfect and I have multiple Windows only softwares that don't work at all with it, that's why I prefer the VM solution
For some reason, the program refuses to recognise my right joycons, but works just fine for my left ones. It keeps insisting that the joycon is disconnected, when it clearly isn't, and so I can't do anything with either of my right joycons.
It says paired or connected in Settings?
If it says connected, are you sure that windows aren't falsely say that this device is connected? Happens all the time to me.
2 ways to check. If it really is connected, if you press a button, the leds stay on flasing. If they turn off after a little, it's not really connected.
If they stay, check in "Control Panel\Hardware and Sound\Devices and Printers" and right click the Joy-Con (R) and click game controller settings. Select the correct and press properties. Press buttons in Joy-Con. Do they show up? No? Drivers problem.
For all these problems the solution, as I said many times in this thread and have in the retry dialog in my app, is simple:
The microsoft bluetooth stack is generally bad in pairing/re-pairing. Just remove the device from settings. Wait for it to disappear from the list. And then pair it again.
EDIT:
You don't have both of them connected by any chance, eh?
It only supports one at a time. If 2 or more are connected, it goes with this order: L > R > Pro

It does say paired, and I have been trying it with just the one joycon connected. I have 4 joycons; 2 left, and 2 right. The software works with both my left joycons, but the moment I try it with either of my right joycons, it will show the joycon on the screen when it opens up, but then insist that I've disconnected it whenever I try to chenge color, backup SPI, or anything similar. It's honestly quite bizarre.
Thing is, the joycon works in every other sense on my laptop. It shows up as connected, shows up under my connected controllers, and I've even been able to use it in games. For some reason though, the jctoolkit software will only work on my left joycons, and not my right ones... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
