Razer Synapse, Making A Key Toggle On And Off?

So my pinky hurts from holding down the crouch button alot in Minecraft (the game lists my total crouch time in actual days). I can't seem to figure out Razer Synapse (Either V2 or V3, though I don't think 3 supports my Blackwidow Ultimate 2016 edition). I see this topic, and several youtube videos but they don't work for me. Using synapse V2 I make a macro and use the "toggle continuous playback on/off using assigned key" and assign it to Shift, thinking I can toggle it on and off. Doesn't work, it turns ON but pressing it again doesn't turn it OFF. I have to quit the entire game to uncrouch until I hit the key again. I set it to Q because people say shift can is tricky about that. Again it doesn't work. I try making a hold shift ON macro button and put it on F6, and then a macro to turn it off and assign it to F7 as some youtube videos showed. Won't let me make the shift release macro. In Razer V3 it seems to let me make the two separate on/off macros, but I don't see a way to a

Razer Phone USB OTG Features. Use Phone Like Workstation?

Hello, Im in the market for a new phone, and I think the original Razer phone (not the Razer 2) is starting to look like my best candidate. I have one major feature I want, but I can't find anything solid on it. I'd like to be able to plug my Razer phone into a dock that lets me give it things like an ethernet connection, USB mouse and keyboard, HDMI video out, external HDD, etc. Does the Razer phone support any of these features, either one at a time with a specific cable, or several of these over a generic USB C dock, and can you list what docks or cables your using to do it? I know the Razer phone was designed with something called "Project Linda" in mind, which is a laptop dock that also happens to give it most of the features I want. In theory the hardware is built into the phone to support these features, but I have no idea if this is using proprietary programming or even enabled in the OS.

Pixel Check Guarantee Service. I'd pay extra for it.

I've just had to pack up my replacement Razer 2 phone because both it, and the phone it had replaced, had dead pixels on it. I still really want the phone, and think its the right choice for me. However, I can't stand the stress of waiting for the phone, applying another screen protector, and finding out the third phone is bad too, so I've opted for a refund this time. I don't know why, but dead pixels cause me a great deal of stress and anxiety. I can't convey just how bad it is when I have an episode of it, but I'm sure I must have some kind of disorder for it to get so bad. My eyes are fairly good, and once I've spotted the pixel it becomes a constant nagging in my mind, even when it's not currently visible. When I opened up the second phone and saw that it too had dead pixels, my anxiety got so bad that I'm making arrangements to find a local psychiatric practitioner. This brings me to my point. I think it should be an industry standard to have every screen run through a scanner

Dead Pixel Fix Recommendations, Razer Phone 2?

While Razer seems to be more than willing to arrange swapping my phone out, the only thing wrong with it seems to be a single stuck/dead pixel in the middle'ish right side of the screen. Stuck pixels can theoretically be fixed, however, and I'd rather try to correct it than risk getting a phone with some other dud component. Im wondering if anyone else has had a stuck pixel and managed to correct it, and what video and phone settings (or other method) you may have used in the process. For example, Ive run a couple pixel fixer videos for about an hour when not using it, at the default 90 Hrtz, with no luck so far. Would a particular video, and maybe refresh rate, be an optimal solution for the Razer Phone 2's screen?

Better keyboard for "disabled" left hand?

Right now Im using the Razer Blackwidow 2016 edition. I only have that because I got it for 25 bucks at Walmart a couple years back, typically anything more expensive was off limits to me. A previously unknown deformity in my left arm is apparently causing a cascading effect leading down into my hand. The impact of my fingers typing on the keyboard or playing games now causes me a significant amount of discomfort, so Im looking into a few solutions. *For gaming, one solution is to learn to use the numberpad and mouse of my blackwidow, reprogramming the number pad into a WSAD setup, using my thumb to operate those keys for basic movement on my good right hand while using my pinky etc fingers to move and operate the mouse. *Another solution is a tenkeyless keyboard that will let my right hand travel less distance from the mouse to the qwerty keys. *This aligns with the tenkeyless board idea, but a keyboard with easier to press mechanical switches might be better for my left hand, mayb

Low Latency on Razer Phone 2 with Bose Quiet Comfort?

I was diagnosed with ASD about 2 years ago, and noise has become increasingly problematic for me. In particular, low rumbling noises cause me to experience a nausea, especially if I can also feel the rumbling via surface contact or air vibrations, while certain scraping noises can induce something I can only describe as extremely painful. I was previously looking for earbuds to use with my Razer Phone 2 that have low latency, as I cannot stand audio delay, however the hammerheads were too expensive for me to justify. Recently I talked to my father about trying to find earbuds that had low latency and app support for blocking specific sound frequencies. He ordered a pair of Bose quietcomfort earbuds for me, without talking to me first. They are already here, although I have not opened them out of fear my Dad can't get return them if I do. Although I'm tempted to have my dad return them and order the hammerheads, which are cheaper by comparison and DO have a low latency mode, the Bose

Is Ozone cleaning safe for Razer Phone 2?

So, my work had a heavily discounted "Truewash" sanitizer appliance. It has options for UV, Ozone, and I think steam sanitation but I'm not sure if it's just spraying hot water. it has modes for phones and electronics, using a combination of UV and/or Ozone. Currently, I'm using rubbing alcohol to clean the phone after work when I get home, just on it's case and the glass screen protector I applied. Does anyone know if Ozone is actually safe to use on the materials of the phone, or can it erode it over time, maybe ruin the waterproofing, etc?

Other Gaming Earbuds For Razer Phone 2?

I've been wanting to upgrade from my Anker Soundcore Liberty 2 earbuds to something that has USB C charging, and isn't always two seconds behind when I'm watching movies and playing games (Stupid creepers keep sneaking up behind me). For the record, the Ankers sound great, and if not for the delay on audio for games, I'd stick with them. I can't really afford to spend more than 50-60 bucks on earbuds, and the JBL buds I bought on black friday (MSRP for 100 but only 40) were so horrible I had to take them back the next day, despite my coworker insisting how great they were for watching movies. So, anyone find a good cheaper pair of earbuds with solid low latency that work well with the Razer Phone 2? Is there a way to check for specific earbuds that have the low latency feature?

Can Verizon Change Which Updates I get To An Off Contract phone?

OK I know this is a weird topic, but my dad swapped the family into an unlimited data plan, and until now Ive been using a Samsung Alias 2 flip phone. I have a Razer 2 I bought off contract from Razer directly, but I use it like a pocket tablet, I cant say I ever actually planned to use it as a phone. But now, I can theoretically activate or pop in a sim card to get it on their network. Im actually fighting myself hard right now not to buy the Motorola Z3 play (its on sale for about 22 more hours and a controller mod case if it doesnt sell out before I act) and use that as my phone, while keeping the R2 off network. My biggest concern is that attaching the phone to Verizon's network might get me a different OTA update version. I seem to think one of my dad's unlocked phones got Verizon logos added to the boot screen after one of the bigger OTA updates and maybe a bit of verizon bloatware snuck onto his phone and could not be removed afterwards. This is a phone that was not subsidize

Junglecat Case Has Sharp Edges, Needs A Redesign

I got the Razer Junglecat back in December, and one problem seems to be especially irritating. The edges around the fingerprint sensor and volume on the Razer Phone 2 are sharp enough to cut my fingers. This seems like a huge oversight in the design since I'm having to press on those spots all the time to use the phone. Not to mention the lack of translucent shell or cut out over the razer symbol, which was previously set up as my notification light. Doesn't seem like good product design to me. Would also be nice if a wrist strap hole could be worked in, seems like theres plenty of spots in the thicker edges of the shell for it.
