By putting the controller into bootloaded mode we can put the v1.01 again into the controller, i connected it to the pc, pressed the up arrow on the D pad along with X for 10-20 seconds and it went completely blank, responded to nothing, then i loaded the v1.01 installer and now it has the previous version again. So we can use the v1.03 and see for ourselves what it fixes and what it doesnt.



Why didn't the support from razer told us this ? Why do they insist that we should RMA the controller instead of doing this ?

It improved the controller to a certain extent but didnt fix it completely


Its so sad really, I think that the TE-edition is the most comfortable controller ive used

I wished that, for your guys sake that blowing into the controller could solve the firmware problems aswell :)
Im on 1.01, and my controller works fine atm apart from "blowing" sometimes.

I'll stick to the 1.01 firmware for now.

I fully agree, the way this situation is being handled by Razer is downright offensive to those of us loyal enough to willingly test the 1.02 beta rather than ask for a refund, which we are all entitled to.

For me thats it, im gonna send it back to get a replacement, i will upgrade the new controller to the 1.03 and if the problems still exist then i will ask for a refund, if i cant get it from the store then i will switch it with the new astro C40 when its released and i will pay the difference. I've had enough of this amateur situation.

There is a way of things happening here that i dont understand and i dislike very much, why cant one mod start in the support subforum a thread that announces that the version 1.03 is released and people can ask for the new firmware there? And shouldnt there also be a thread of people who talk about their experience with the controller's new firmware? And the people who created it and tried out the new firmware, didnt they use the same controllers who also had the beta? And lets say they didnt, couldnt they predict that the 1.02 beta users may want to get the 1.03 update? It takes so long for an update to be released and that update is for everyone who bought the controller and now 50 people will have to wait till they find a solution about this? I dont want to imagine how long that will take and with the way things are going i dont want to speculate because it could easily never be addressed. Shouldnt there be a way to downgrade at least to the 1.01 so we can put the 1.03? This doesnt remind me an organised official forum but a village market where everything is based on rumour and what someone heard. Both the 1.02 beta and the 1.03 werent announced and SOMEONE found out by talking to the support about them and spread the word, which year are we living in? 1850? I paid 240 euros for this controller and thats what everyone else paid pretty much, shouldnt we at least get some update on the situation? Im coming here everyday to check whats happening only to learn by accident there's a new firmware? And we werent included in it? Did we buy the controller with monopoly money or something? Most of us 1.02 beta users are the active ones in this community right now and not only werent we informed but we were left out? After waiting since September for a solution to our controller? Does this sound professional in any way?

So let me get this straight, there has been a 1.03 official release of the firmware and instead of being given to everyone who has paid 200+ euros/dollars/pounds, it is only given to those who contact the support? And the support didnt make it known that they would be releasing it? So AGAIN someone found out by talking to them and he spread the word? And all of us who tried the beta cant get the update because they didnt predict that? And they take too long to make an update everytime and that update impacted everyone who bought it, and now we have to wait to make an update for us who got the beta who might be 50 people? Is this for real?

I spoke to the support team yesterday, and they told me the same. The version 1.03 installer can't override 1.02 at this time, so anybody who has helped Razer by beta testing their faulty hardware are being left high and dry.

Lol, they told me to RMA the controller xD. Even when i told them i was beta testing. They seriously need to work on their internal communication skills.

I dont get it, 1.02 u mean the beta, right? There shouldnt be a 1.03 since the 1.02 is still in beta, there should be the official 1.02 and if they made it official, if they launched it then shouldnt there be a post here by the mods?


There is a 1.03 version available if you ask the support staff, but only if you are running 1.01 or earlier.

I've got a link for 1.03 but am running 1.02 and someone on reddit said you cannot upgrade from 1.02 to 1.03 only from 1.0.0 and 1.01.

Upgraded to 1.02 today, quick test on black ops and no noticeable lag on BT anymore. No stick drift to report on either stick and hair triggers work as intended.

Will test via cable tonight.



Glad it worked out!

If you gays ask the support you can get the 1.03 update

Is there a version 1.03 really?? Or maybe do u mean the beta?
Anyone running 1.03? is this official firmware of beta again? any idea what its supposed to fix?

I’ve created thread in Support subforum here and asked for betw firmware - there is no response all this days. I’m going to send back to resellers my Raiju tomorrow.

I think it helped overall, didnt have that super crazy stick drift i had last time, i had some small drifts here and there. Still tho the drift appears and there are times where the right stick isnt responding for a bit, plus when u change profiles u feel instantly some small stick drift many times. So the controller definately needs a fix. i dont think it had dust inside, maybe from the design of it somehow dust goes inside when we play it? No idea. Somehow it seems this helped tho it didnt fix it but this "fix" can actually be from the pressure on the sticks and not from blowing air inside it.
wow.. I did this on my ultimate and it worked!
i'm running the beta 1.02

Tried it on my raiju ultimate. I'm on the beta firmware btw. Normally i would get huge stick drift playing the forest. So that's the first game i tried. Dont know why, but the stick drift seems gone. Just the input lag is still there sometimes. Werd thing is on battlefield 5 i had no problems. Even before this "fix".


I guess different games have different "native" sensitivity? but yeah its strange
