Recent updates to Razer Synapse has bricked the 2.4 GHz wireless dongle of almost every Razer Nari Ultimate headset. I’ve been using the headset for almost 3 years now and the dongle suddenly gave up working one fine day. I am seeing on this forum that multiple Razer Nari Ultimate users have been facing the same issue very recently.The issue:The dongle does not get detected by the PC nor does it connect with the headset. It very rarely gets detected but immediately disconnects as soon as I try to play any sound from the PC.The headset itself works fine when it is connected via the 3.5mm jack. So this is most definitely a software issue that partially bricked the dongle from connecting/updating firmware. Using the 3.5mm jack cable is really infuriating as it defeats the whole point of buying a wireless headset. The headset also doesn’t get recognised on Synapse, therefore none of the features(such as Haptics, Game/Voice audio control, Mute button) work even though they are right there and were working fine just a few days back!Things I’ve tried(but none of them solved the problem):- Use Razer Nari Ultimate Dongle recovery tool; The dongle doesn’t get detected on the app most of the time. Very rarely connects but the app then hangs on clicking ‘Recover’.- Use Razer Nari Ultimate pairing utility; The dongle doesn’t get detected on the app most of the time. When it connects, it tries to update the dongle firmware version to ‘106’ but hangs after reaching 100%.- Reinstall and rollback to older version of Razer Synapse; no change.- Reset Windows Audio drivers; no change.

So, mine exaclty the same. Suspiciously enough had my warranty expire a few months back.If anyone here has also this case of “JUST OUT OF LIMITED WARRANTY - NOW BRICKED”please, respond to this comment. We might be under a case of artificially manipulated obsolescence and it may be illegal.I hope we all get both our dongle and the good old Razer service back.
