Wolverine V3 TE unable to communicate with Synapse 4?!?!

Does this device work - is it systemic issue or a bad unit?

 

My finger is poised on the Amazon return button. This is not a good introduction to Razer products.

 

Razer Wolverine V3 Tournament Edition – Windows 10

Summary of Issues:

 

• The normal xBox buttons work.

 

• The Profile Sync icon in Synapse spins indefinitely. The tab always shows perpetual “Loading”. The three‑dot menu never appears, so I cannot view or create profiles.

 

• Profile switching on the controller does not change the LED color.

 

• M‑Keys do not retain assignments. None of the changes I make persist. As soon as I click the refresh icon in Synapse, all assignments disappear.

 

• The serial number field in Synapse is blank. It appears as if Synapse is not communicating with the device, even though the controller shows up as a configurable device.

 

• I have uninstalled and reinstalled Synapse multiple times.

 

• Firmware update cannot be performed. The “Update” button never becomes active after the switch to XBox mode step.

Wow - I received a response from Razer Tier II.

 

This was my response to them.

 

216 hours to respond to a new customer with a newly purchased Razer $100.00 product that is clearly DEFECTIVE. Nicely done RAZER - too late - but nicely done. I sent it back - I will never buy another Razer product - and I will be including this log on my YouTube hardware review. I purchased a Gamesir G7 8K as a replacement - you know what - it just works right out of the box. Thanks for nothing Razer. How the mighty have fallen.

I went through Tier I Support who could not help me.

 

They referred my ticket to Tier II Support - which has been sitting in the queue for 144 hours - without being touched?

 

Does Razer even care?
