I was very happy with my Razer Huntsman mini up untill the moment I noticed that it had sticky keys problem. Tried updating the firmware through Razer's own special tool (they do recommend using the latest firmware)... aaand the whole SYSTEM now starts WAY slower than it should. The problem is a 100% firmware update, as it's never occured before and the system starts perfectly IF I disconnect the KB.
It is impossible to go back to the previous firmware (what?...) and the sticky keys issue persists on top of that. The KB was sent to me as a gift from a friend, who lives in a different country. RMA won't work. I'm stuck with a pretty much broken product.

Just to clarify this isnt an amd exclusive issue. I purchased this kb 4 a new zen3 build but after experiencing the issue and clean installing twice i finally realized it was the kb causing it. I switched the huntsman mini 2 my intel build and sum uf the same issues aruse. If peuple are saying it was wurking fine be4 the newest firmware then it is ubviusly un their end.
Guess which key has decided tu stup wurking 4 me until i switch usb purts lul

Oh mate... that sucks. At first I was like did they have a stroke while writing this?
That's interesting that it happened on intel for you as well. Given your issue with the O key you may have received a genuinely faulty copy of the board.
Mine destroy's windows explorer on my AMD machine but works flawlessly on my intel machine. It's a real shame because I have been waiting for a decent 60% keyboard and don't have time time or patience to do a custom. Oh well back to waiting.

If i end up doing this replacement that razer is giving me, how do I stop the firmware from updating if it isn't already on this crappy firmware that caused all these problems people are talking about ?
Thats what they replayed me, so they are aware of this issue, guess we just wait now, hope this not gonna take them too long.

Ok, so that means that they are at least working on it. A replacement for this is going to suck because I have keycaps on mine already. Hopefully they can get a fix for this quickly. It would be a shame if they just let this issue persist for as long as they have
Thank you guys for sharing your experience and keeping everyone here posted! THIS kind of problem for the whole system, just because of a keyboard is just crazy, hopefully our joint effort gets Razer's attention and there will be a fix

Firmware is updated manually. If you don't do it on purpose AND firmware version of the KB you receive is free of this huge issue - you're safe

Done, thanks!
Just another update from my end with support, after gather several different logs from my machine and taking a video of what happens when I have a differennt keyboard to my machines as well as what happens when I connect the Razer to it, they have come back with the follwing statement;
"Thank you for taking time in providing all of the necessary details, Looks like it could be I/O controller issues with Huntsman mini and AMD devices. if you may can I forward this our Developers Team for further investigation. we send you feedback once we get the solution."
Can some anyone from Razer that is monitoring this forum please explain to me why we can't role the firmware back to the previous release, at least for the users that are facing this issue. I had no issues with the keyboard until this update and would be happy to go back to the previous firmware if it will resolve the issues I face.

Hi heavenradioOrchid229! Thanks for sharing. Razer has always been updating device firmware, not rollback. Once there' an official fix, I'll post it in this thread, or you can visit the Razer Huntsman Mini's support site by clicking this link.
This is ridiculous. The previous firmware worked. I have a $200 keyboard that I can’t use because the new firmware broke it. So you can provide the previous firmware, you are just choosing not to and in doing so are leaving your customers with defective products while we wait for razer to fix this.
might be time to go to the ACCC and see what they think.

yeah razer support just told me that it is something installed on my system, even though all i have is games and manufacturer software installed on my computer. They said they couldn't replicate any of my issues and then gave me the same basic troubleshooting steps that are no better than turn it off and turn it on again

Nope. It's the opposite. If Razer has an official fix for a particular device, I post it immediately. By the way, were you able to contact our Support Team? If you haven't, please send us your Razer Synapse 3.0 logs by following the steps I've posted above so our team can analyze the software's behavior on your computer while using the Razer Huntsman Mini. Thanks for your cooperation.
I would like to add I have the exact same issue, very slow boot and unresponsive on start. I love this keyboard, and will be very sad to switch but it seems I will have to if this isn’t fixed. Glad to see I’m not crazy and my 2 month old PC isn’t broken already. I did try my keyboard on an intel PC and did not have the issue. Please razer fix this so I can keep using this keyboard!
Well, all I can say is that they have not come back to me stating that this is something I have installed on my PC. they have taken alot of files and logs from me and have stated that they are askign the devs to look into addressing this. But have not really heard back from them since, except for the odd automated message saying that they havent' heard from me in a few days and that if I don't reply they will close my ticket. Annoying and also easy to address, but it is what it is. I have since moved on to the Anne Pro 2 Keyboard and am not sure I will be going back to the Razer. Even though the Red linears on the razer feel and sound better. This keyboard just works, and their Tap feature for arrow keys have one me over.

In the mean time while this is being fixed..hopefully.. anyone have other recommendations for a 60% keyboard that has switches like the purple opticals?
Thanks for sharing @heavenradioOrchid229. Please send me your email address or case number so I can review your contact history via PM. I appreciate your cooperation.
Same Issues, I just unplug the keyboard before booting.. solves the issue. Although having to keep unplugging it because Razer isn't fixing this should not be a $200 keyboard issue.

Damn, I wish I could do that too, even after boot with this keyboard unplugged as soon as I plug it in it's still freezing my system
