Razer naga v2 hyperspeed, synapse 4 and onboard memory

Update:

Found a fix

Wait what was the fix? I'm having the same issue. 

So for some odd reason razer setup works in windows, not sure how or why. 

So I'll try not to be to long, but this may be a bit in depth. 

So the way a typical mouse side buttons are set up is as follows 1-12:

1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0,-,=

So the mouse has a single memory onboard. So what I found is, it keeps that last profile setup in memory that you used. 

So if you used a wow setup it keeps that UNLESS...... It does the auto switching profile., which it does on the fly by default

Sounds confusing I know not I'll try and break it down some

So I have a wow, a d4 and a default desktop profile setups 

So, with the mouse using auto switching it goes into wow profile when it registers the wow exe file and auto switches to wow config. If you quit wow it switches to default desktop profile. Same for d4, it auto switches to the d4 profile when it sees the d4 exe file, then exciting the game it switches to default desktop profile again automatically

So if it didn't auto switch, it would suck because your last profile would now be your desktop, or wow or d4 profile and you'd have to manually change your profile. 

So once you have a default profile do not remove it, ie: only having wow and d4 profiles, because if you exit that game, that's your key binds and without default profile you would be using whatever have profile you had last unless you manually change it, but if you delete default you then only have wow and d4 profiles to use.

So I've been using Linux for about 2 weeks, and the mouse had some weird setup. So I had to go in, manually set my keys to default MMO setup of 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0,-,= and assign that as default profile in windows then it saved as that, as default was the last profile. Now it works in both windows and Linux no issues. 

Hope this makes sense. 

In short change your default profile to those assigned keys and it will be the default onboard memory setup.

So if it didn't auto switch, it would suck because your last profile would now be your last played game and you'd have to switch manually back to default or desktop profile. So once you have a default profile do not remove it, ie: only having wow and d4 profiles, because if you exit that game, that's your key binds.

Anyways sorry so long, I hope it all made sense

Sorry for the double post, must have been lagging and posted twice

I wanna buy a NAGA V2 Hyperspeed but I need to know something first.
If I record macros let’s say 9 characters long (18 key actions) using Synapse, will the mouse store the macros on it’s internal memory if I switch to a different computer on which I don’t have Synapse installed? I’m currently using a Trust GXT 166 (20 years old) and the side buttons macros are stored on the internal memory. I mapped the side buttons on my personal pc and than brought the mouse to the office and it works perfectly. Will I have any issues with the NAGA???

I don't believe the v2 hyperspeed stores macros of any kind only 1 button keys

Yeah, ordered one NAGA V2 Hyperspeed, might arrive tomorrow and I’ll test it during the week-end. Most likely gonna respond here on monday.
I have a 20 year old Trust GXT 166 with internal memory for 5 profiles (with macros included) and it’s a beast. at the moment the last side button (G18) has “dsga-0000” stored on it and it works perfectly without it’s dedicated software (not allowed to install on the office laptop)
If a 20+ years mouse works, somehow I think this Naga gonna work too. Even tho it might save only one profile.

If your in windows and not Linux, (not sure about mac) but with the razer software it will work perfect. I've never had a single issues on windows. The only issue I had was Linux.

I am currently on cachyos and has to do the button forcing re-assignment in windows which works in windows just fine, but I Linux is was tricky. Once I did the reassigning of the buttons as above it saved it to the onboard memory and works fine in Linux. 

For key assignment and macros as such in Linux I use an app called button remapper, you can set profiles and macros and such with it. 

I personally have not tried macros as I don't use them but for key reassignments it works perfect.

So I have my heals as 5 on my skill bar for heals so I assign key 3 as key 5. And save it as my wow profile. Now as I'm writing this I suppose I could do it without profiles and move my heals to a lot 3 and use it as is lol, but yeah you get the point. Buying remapper works flawlessly without any issues. You just make a new bind, click what button/key you want and change it to whatever key you want to use it as, ie: my button 3 is key 5.

One thing it does not so is auto switch profiles and you have to keep the program open, if you close it you won't have profiles. I'm ok with that because it does work, just have to manually switch profiles before starting the game 

As a side note, two of the biggest makers of mice razer and Logitech have both said they won't ever support Linux of any kind. Kinda sad really and kinda pisses me off in a lot of ways but not much we can do about it sadly. 

Hope this helps. 

Huge disappointment... With the dedicated software it works perfectly. Macros and all, once try to use the mouse on the office laptop dead x_x

The only extra buttons working are the dpi +/-

The rest are dead... And I'm very sad... My 20+ years trust GXT is starting to double click or not click at all, and I can't use it like that. Microsoft Power Toys doesn't help with the Naga... 

Whelp?

So like nothing or just different keys?

Did you manually assign them under “default” profile to the assigned keys above 1 thru = in windows?

I did do this on the same laptop dual booted, I did not use it on a separate other physical machine, so maybe this is an issue.

I would like to know myself now cause I’m curious if it works so I’ll have to find a person I can borrow their laptop to test it with, because if this indeed does not work from physical machine, then that's very unfortunate, because logitech does not have a gaming mouse other than the g600 and it’s $250! and I am not paying that!! Aside from that all I can suggest is the Corsair scimitar elite wireless se mmo gaming Mouse. I had it for about a week, and hardware wise it’s a very solid build, and you can also slide the side buttons panel forward or backward to adjust to your desired feel. They have patented that feature so no one else has it. 

I assigned mine 1 - = under default profile and it saved the changes then when I went to linux, cachyos to be specific, it stayed as such 1 - = and worked fine.

What OS are you going to just out of curiosity?

I’ve not had any issues with they keys just not working. 

For linux there is no software as I stated, logitech and razer have said they will never support linux ever, so the software they use won’t be a thing in linux. If you’re on mac I can't help much because I haven’t tried mac at all. 

I’m not sure about other distros of linux, but I’d assume it would work in all distros as it did for me in cachyos. I don’t think there is much if any difference in that part, but as I’m a newb to linux I could be wrong. 

On a side note I have since moved on from linux and moved back to windows. I spent 3 weeks of getting things to work, and spent more time tweaking and doing stuff to get stuff to work than I did anything else, so if this is what it takes to get things to work in linux, I’m out, it’s WAY to much trouble and effort to get thing's setup than it’s worth. I don’t care what any linux person says, they can claim and color linux how they want to fact is it’s more work, plain and simple. More work than I’m willing to put forth. Window's has it’s issues but overall it just works and I don’t have to spend time, hrs or days trying to tweak things to get it to work, this goes for not only games but system stuff as well…...prime example I have a intel+nvidia laptop and have to do stuff to make it use nvidia only a a command line, this is coming from a 99.9% gamer for 30+ years. 
This whole command line is imo a thing that went out in dos days, and I get the fine tuning aspect of the entire thing, but when you come new to an OS the command line part can be hard. I know there is gui in linux now but not entirely, not vs windows and the gui makes it a lot easier, at least for me. Oh and lets not get me started with the whole linux community demeaner, less that desirable and the bedside manner is like a spoiled brat kid who wants you to use and/or do what they suggest, and if you go off script it’s rtfm or google it, so yeah that doesn’t make people wanna migrate to linux very much. Anyways I digress 

So:
I’ve done the mapping on my personal laptop (windows 11 - razer synapse) in the default profile and it worked perfectly. Saved everything and disconnected the 2.4ghz receiver.
Then I inserted the receiver in a different laptop (windows 11 - no razer synapse) and nothing worked. Not even the default keys from the factory (1, 2 etc) but somehow the dpi + / - seem to work just fine.
It’s quite disappointing because a 20+ years old mouse has an internal memory for 5 profiles with different dpi and macros of up to 16 characters (32 bit) and somehow constructed much better than something built more recently… I searched all over the internet for a new/used GXT 166 but I can’t find any… I could try something from Temu but I’d rather not. 
And due to the nature of my employer I can’t install Razer Synapse… Not now at least ^;...;^
Today I also installed Power Toys (developed by Microsoft) and I remapped the buttons Home, End, Pg Up, Pg Dn to Cut, Rename, Copy, Paste, the thing is that these are keyboard buttons and not even Power Toys doesn’t recognize the side buttons of the mouse, but I would rather have them on the side of my mouse instead of on keyboard… It’s quite disappointing :((( I will not return it coz I bought it for less the 50$ new.
