I try to figure out how to sett all led in strip to the same color When I activate the button 1 in the app. I can control the first led and it follow the color I choose Led number 2 is also changing color but not the same as led number 1 and the same for led number 3. The only color I can sett to same on all led is white. If I choose button number 2 or 3 nothing is changed Amy ideas how I can do this ? The LED strip is a ws2812b. Regards Andreas ---

Sounds like you have a hardware problem that needs to be fixed. See [here](https://github.com/Aircoookie/WLED/wiki/FAQ). ---

Does the whole led strip glow solid orange on boot up of the controller? If so this is a is a good sign that the controller is programmed correctly. Make sure all your led settings are correct within the app. Check all power connections and ratings and keep the data line as short as possible for initial testing. ---

It sounds like either the strip is hiding a warm white or other white led, or the strip is defective. For testing purposes, select just red for the entire strip. Do all LEDs light up? Are they all red? Do the same for green, and then again for blue. Perhaps post images of the strip with all red, all green, and all blue? How are you setting the color? Using the WLED web interface? What button 1 / 2 / 3? ---

The problem is solved. The strip was marked as a WS2812B, when i read the comments in the web shop people find out that is was a SK6812. When i set active the 4 channel i n the config page it work as it should. Regards Andreas
