So for some reason youtube wont let me reply to a comment by @cossboss , but to these are the instructions on how to change the mouse to left handed etc.: Changing side buttons (only for mice that fit both hands) To change between left and right side buttons, press and hold the button combinations described below while plugging the mouse into the USB port of your computer. • Button 2+3 : Left-side buttons are activated. Suitable for right hand use. • Button 1+3 : Right-side buttons are activated. Suitable for left hand use.
I had 1000hz polling rate.. just to check i tried to go for 125hz ... now i am not able to switch it back to 1000hz . i tried restarting the pc , uninstalling the driver etc.. it aint going back to 500hz or 1000hz .. help please. and i am able to switch the left hand and right hand mouse via the mouse 4 and 5 but not able to use those buttons "mouse 4 and 5" (while configuring it is working) but it aint working on windows.. please help me :(
can u explain more about your peoblem ? and how you fixed it .. ? whenever i started to use hyperglide mouse feet for my za13 , i started having tracking issues .. now, the the hyperglide feets are thicker so maybe LOD helps ? im lost i need help
No problem! Glad it helped. If youre getting stuttering or lag with your mouse it could also be your polling rate. If LOD worked then the mouse most likely wasn't tracking on the surface.
might be my very old cloth mousepad and my very old zowie ec2-a but when i but the lod to its lowest it barely tracked my movement at all. the cloth pad setting mouse4 and mouse1 seems to working best for me.
that was so helpful thank you very much :D. i play on a cloth mousepad and changed my poling rate to 500 hz so much better now. and the lift off distance i put it on very low.
Changing the lift off distance screwed with my Zowie EC-2A, I reset it to default lift off (lowest) as the highest gave tracking issues. Now when It is at the lowest, I still have tracking issues.
Good video. In my Zowie FK2 i can't have low LOD turned on because im having tracking issues like - mouse is slower but it speeds up sometimes when i move my hand or skiping a lot of pixels . So if anyone had the same issue you must just change LOD to medium or high . I thought my mice was broken but changing LOD helped me.
Thank you so much, I couldn´t figure out how to change the buttons to the left handed option because the instructions didn´t specify the unplug part. Like and sub
Hey man you have any experience with mice whose cursors vibrate back and forth very quickly when setting still or being held ver still with the hand? I have a zowie fk2 and sometimes when I start my pc up the cursor is vibrating very quickly back and forth over like a pixel and a half. I am using the highest dpi with default lod and on a cloth mousepad (highly rates one forget which one). I NEVER pick my mouse up when i game because i use really high sensitivity (the manu suggested setting lod higher). Any thoughts? I cannot reproduce the issue... it happens randomly when it is held still however.
Hey, sorry for the late response. Usually sensor jitterering occurs for 2 main reasons. The first being that the sensor may be dirty and second the surface may not be compatible with your mouse. You would want your LOD low, not high, as high tracks higher off the surface.
Mateckz okay thanks yea I am about to RMA with Zowie. I mean it does it VERY infrequently and randomly. I often see it occur in bios. It happens less in game. The problem presented itself with the lowest lift off distance. I thoroughly washed my gigantor corsair mousepad that rocketninja uses per his instructions and I still see the jitter I would say once every 30ish hrs.
Mateckz i could check the sensor for grime again but the issue happens so infrequently that I would think if it was the problem in this case if would be jittering constantly.
Hey, I guess that would depend on what surface you are using, i would stick to medium LOD if you are using a cloth pad, I would stay away from HIGH LOD on any surface IMO. I use low LOD because i use a hard pad. That seems to work well for me. I also don't use any SS mouse surfaces as they aren't that great. Check out the cloth pad i reviewed on this channel, it by far for price, has been the best cloth surface i have used.
whenever i started to use hyperglide mouse feet for my za13 , i started having tracking issues .. in csgo.. now i know the hyper glide feets are thicker , could LOD helps ? but u said it low LOD is better ... i need help im lost
i have ec2-a with holding m1+m4 i noticed it have tracking issue on cloth pad - G-SR black edition. And now i need to play with m1+m5 it is fine for me
Yes, I use a hard pad, which seems to work very well on low LOD for the mouse. Good cloth pads, the mouse is preferably used on medium LOD setting for the mouse.
Do you know if its possible to either change or turn off the lightning on the ec2a without changing the dpi? I play on 1600dpi and the light on the scroll wheel is blue, I hate it!
Mateckz it works bro! I needed this cause i ordered my Zowie EC2-A yesterday and i wanna know if it's gonna work like adjusting the Hz! thanks a lot bro! subscribed and liked!
@Mateckz hello bro if i press button 4 and button 2 its so laggy and you say its the best settings for cs go can you help me how to fix this because i see my mouse is so laggy. What is the default Lift off distance on zowie ec2-a thanks for answear
Mateckz I have the brand new one. I tried all 3 lift off distances and they all feel the same I don't think I'm doing anything wrong. I hold down the mouse 4 and mouse 1 for cloth setting, still feels extremely low.
- holding the back button(mouse4) on the side and right mouse(mouse2) button while plugging the mouse in To set the LOD back to "cloth pad" setting: - holding the back button (mouse4) on the side and left mouse button(Mouse1) while plugging the mouse in There is also a higher LOD, you can change to this by: - holding the back button on the side(mouse4) and the left(Mouse1) and right(mouse2) buttons at the same time while plugging the mouse in"
I chose 1000 hz for the mouse but i could only get an average of 700 - 800 help please!? i use laptop with not the greatest specs is that the issue? should i use the 500 hz for a more stable hz?
hi BXL, no the thing about driverless mice is that they save your config on the memory built into the mouse. Once you make your changes they will remain the same no matter where you plug your mouse in at. You have to be careful though as if you set your mouse to 1000 polling rate and you plug your mouse into a computer that can't handle the response rate of that, you may see some response issues. (not the mouse's fault, it's more the bandwidth of your USB ports etc.) Also if you are on any current PC build you should not run into this. I play at 1000 polling rate and switch my mouse between 4 different PCs and haven't had issues. Also thank you any likes and subs mean so much to me! Let me know if you need any help.
Good question, I play at 1000hz and honestly if you're plugging this into a USB 3.0 slot go with 1000hz. The mixed reviews come from users i think that are using usb 2.0 where a bandwidth limitation may occur, but you aren't ever going to reach that @ 1000 polling rate over USB 3.0+
I 100% know its possible, but I am not sure what the mouse binds are for that particular mouse. They should be the same, as pretty much all my Zowie mice have been done using this, but that doesnt mean it is the same for that mouse.
Mateckz I really notice the lod in game a lot but it isn’t a huge issue as the mouse is a bit too small for me anyway so I’m going to return it and get an ec1a to fix both issues . Tilt slam isn’t a prob either
Is there some chance to set lift of distance somewere around (Mouse1+ Mouse4) and (Mouse2 + Mouse4) ? Because lowest lift of distance doesnt work well.
On paper 1000 polling rate is your best polling rate, but some people experience mouse lag when using 1000 polling rate. I use 1000 polling rate as it supposed to allow the mouse to refresh faster back and forth.
Hey, there is no interface/gui for ZOWIE mice, all the drivers are built into the mouse and changed by certain buttons while plugging the mouse in. This video walks through how to change each of those settings. Are you having issues with a particular setting you would like to change?
Thank you for replying. I was confused because I saw that your values were on your monitor. I did configure it according to the instructions. The lift off was way off. I believe it is much better now. Trial and error.
Lift off distance is the tracking distance between the mouse/sensor and the surface you're playing on. So, if you have high lift off distance it just means your mouse will track at a higher height than the lower settings. When you pick your mouse up to turn it most likely your sensor for your mouse will still track causing your cursor to move. Do you understand? Let me know.
No you can't. since there's no software for it you can only choose between the four dpi presets, for me that's fine since I'm used to 400 dpi for everything now
Polling rate? If you are referring to polling rate, it is how fast data is sent from your mouse to the pc. If you have a newer pc go to 1000 polling rate.
I would like to know if it's possible to unbind something on my Zowie ZA12. There is 3 ways to switch the Hertz. Mouse5 = 1000Hz Mouse4 = 500Hz Mouse5 + Mouse4 = 125Hz I use 1000Hz. When i play, i'm talking ingame with Mouse5 and i'm using mouse4 to build in this game. When i use one of this two buttons my game freeze until i don't press it anymore. Because the mouse try to switch Hertz obviously. So i would like to know if there is a way to unbind the button to switch Hertz since i don't need to do it anymore.
The mouse does not try to switch herts if you press the button at the same time etc, the only time the hertz would switch is if you hold those and unplug and plug the mouse back in. I am not sure why your game would be freezing when pushing both the buttons at the same time. What game are you playing, i can maybe do some research on it real fast.
Hey, hello and thanks for the reply. This happen only in FORTNITE the battleroyale mod. In CS:GO or any other game, it's fine. But i use the mouse a lot more in Fortnite. I know i have to plug to mouse and hold one button or both for a different setting, but it really seem like the mouse try to and not react to my mouvements for 2 secondes ingame. It is not when i press them together, just when i press mouse5 or mouse4 and turn the mouse. Actually, maybe if i press them together but i can't not tell(i haven't tried). If i press mouse4 like real quick, it doesn't freeze, but if i press it for 2 secondes or more and click mouse1 to finish the build, sometime it does. Same for the mouse5 button. It's Doesn't happen everytime. It's hard to describe because it's really quick. I'm not sure the game will freeze but the mouse, yes, 100%. Like i can't not turn to look around and stuff for 2 secondes.
I would try a few things, first off what are your PC specs, also what polling rate are you using, and have you tried a different USB port on your PC? Are you using USB 3.0, or 2.0 port?
Yes, the mouse was plugged to a USB 3.0 since a few days... So i went back to the USB 2.0 and everything is ok now. My mistake, i would probably not think about it without your help. ^^ Thanks a lot!
@@ilscreamil9478 zowie.benq.com/ja/support/mouse-rate-checker.html Try this, i havent tried this, but it looks like zowie now has a mouse checker via HTML.
I would stick with high then. LOD is very dependent on how it feels for the user. Personally i use a hard-pad, so low LOD works the best for me. When you're on a hard surface, medium/High LOD tracks when you live the mouse off the hard pad. Glad high turned out working for you brother!!!!
No unfortunately :/ I'm just trying to habituate with medium Another question how do you deal with the cable ? I used to play with a wireless mouse so my EC2-A is new and Idk how to do I don't wanna waste my money on bungees cuz I'm broke right now :( I made the cable straight I feel something wrong when I move the mouse it's uncomfortable and annoying Thanks for reply budd :')
Hey, sorry have been out of town for a little bit, so what i do with my mouse cable is use a 3m adhesive hook and attach it to the back of my monitor. I then take a comfortable amount of slack on the mouse cord and loop it around the 3m hook so that the mouse cord almost floats. This gives it a very comfortable feel. If you want i can take a picture and post it on my twitter.
Nikolas Olsen I dont see a point to have it on anything but the lowest setting, unless your mouse is having tracking issue with it, especially if you’re playing an FPS game. You have to pick your mouse up and dont want it tracking when your mouse is off the pad.
what LOD you recommend for cloth pad (steelseries qck+) & steelseries qck heavy .Have zowie ec2a mice.And what is the default LOD for zowie ec2a.for cs go.
Medium LOD is recommended for cloth pads, i believe default is medium for ec2-A (i could be wrong, I just remember changing it to low as i play on a hard pad.)
Hey, sorry for the late reply, unfortunately you can not set it that low with this mouse. You can use this cool calculator though to get the sensitivity that would replicate 200 DPI. www.easycalculation.com/other/dpi-calculator.php What is your current sens on 200 DPI you are playing at?
Young Kelz what do you mean? You mean like have mouse4 be like mouse 3 or something? If so you can't do that with this mouse, the drivers are built into the mouse, so no GUI to set buttons as something else, why not just set your ingame buttons as something that works for you on the mouse?
like I know they're hardset to 4 & 5 but for example i use mousewheeldown to jump in game & button 5 is also set to jump when I usually set it to 1 to switch weapons. If that makes any sense, I also checked the in-game bind are not clashing.
Those would be in game binds you set in your game config, I use mouse wheel down to jump and mouse4 for nade cycle and mouse 5 to pull bomb out, so yes you can bind them to what ever you want. I hope that answers your question. From the sounds if it you just need to tweak your in game binds a bit.
You can either have the left side buttons work (for right handed players), or the right side buttons work (for left handed players) You can see in the video how to adjust mouse 4 and mouse 5 buttons at around 45 seconds in the manual on the right side of the video.
@@creakffm AHH sorry i misunderstood. Yea you can't get both sides working at once. Either right or left. plus mouse1, mouse2, mouse 3, scroll up/down. sorry :(
Which mouse pad do you have, i have seen a lot of players having issues with not so great cloth pads. Although high LOD you should have no issues tracking, it could be a defective mouse. Which mouse do you have?
Thanks for reply, i have a QcK Mass and zowie ec2-a. Sometimes when I lift the mouse the sensor takes time to respond, it is quite annoying. I bought the mouse a month ago and since I bought it i feel the same :/
I would def try to get a replacement and see if it happens with the new mouse. I have never heard of a mouse not tracking at HIGH LOD, are you sure its set to high LOD and not low LOD. Low may have some issues tracking on cloth pads.
I just did some test and I saw that if I set the LOD to low the mouse practically doesn't track.. Now in high track always good but this is the problem of when I lift the mouse does not track for a few milliseconds, also try with another pad (goliathus control) but there was no change. Anyway, I'll have to get used to it :/ thanks for the help
I have not tested this with my FK2, the fk2 came out of box feeling pretty good, so i did not mess with this. I would try it. If it doesn't let me know ill do a video on it.

Try the Logitech G403 wired, solid mouse for around the same price. Only con for me is its not driver less and it has a braided mouse cord. Other than that its an accurate solid mouse.
So for some reason youtube wont let me reply to a comment by @cossboss , but to these are the instructions on how to change the mouse to left handed etc.:

can u explain more about your peoblem ? and how you fixed it .. ?

No problem! Glad it helped. If youre getting stuttering or lag with your mouse it could also be your polling rate. If LOD worked then the mouse most likely wasn't tracking on the surface.
Change your lift off distance to something higer, the LOD for the za13 if i remember come stock on cloth, try to use the medium to high LOD.
yeah, my problem was the LOD. My fk2 didn't track very well with steelseries qck+
might be my very old cloth mousepad and my very old zowie ec2-a but when i but the lod to its lowest it barely tracked my movement at all. the cloth pad setting mouse4 and mouse1 seems to working best for me.
jimpanSthlm try either medium LOD, or a new pad. Medium LOD should work a bit better if you’re experiencing that issue.

On paper 1000 polling rate is your best polling rate, but some people experience mouse lag when using 1000 polling rate. I use 1000 polling rate as it supposed to allow the mouse to refresh faster back and forth.
Hello Mateckz, What is the default LOD of zowie fk2? I go wrong with the low lod, I need to put it default
Hi, i believe medium LOD is default for
the fk2
ok bro, thanks
thanks for the making this tutorial it helps a lot
You're welcome, i hope it helped!
Mateckz what do you think about zowie ec1-a is it good ?
Hey, thank you for the subscribe!
Mateckz i think driverless better cuz you can easily change the dpi and hertz with button
Mateckz logitech mices are so small
good video but you're apologizing too much and take too long to get to the point. besides that good vid
i seriusly dont know how to change polling rate please help i tryed what u told me in the decription
Mihail Dimovski which mouse do you have?
i fixed the prob ty bro ... ec1-a
Silly question. How do I get the FK2 interface to show on the laptop? I have it plugged in but, no display on the screen.
Hey, there is no interface/gui for ZOWIE mice, all the drivers are built into the mouse and changed by certain buttons while plugging the mouse in. This video walks through how to change each of those settings. Are you having issues with a particular setting you would like to change?
Thank you for replying. I was confused because I saw that your values were on your monitor. I did configure it according to the instructions. The lift off was way off. I believe it is much better now. Trial and error.
Can you explain here what does "Lift off distance means"? I am from another country.... Does that make the difference?
Lift off distance is the tracking distance between the mouse/sensor and the surface you're playing on. So, if you have high lift off distance it just means your mouse will track at a higher height than the lower settings. When you pick your mouse up to turn it most likely your sensor for your mouse will still track causing your cursor to move. Do you understand? Let me know.
Mateckz Yes! Thank you a lot !!
Np man if you haven't subbed please show some love
How to default lod on zowie ec2b? Help me plz
Nice video :) Is it possible to change the default DPI/CPI settings?
Mouse 4+1+2= "original mode" - highest all around LOD

Emil Ayoub thank you :)
how can i change my 500 hz to 1000hz help me
unplug the usb cable hold down mouse button 4 then plug it back in it's at 2:07
DeZione thanks for helping him out!
can you change it to a dpi that isnt with the ones on there, like i want to change my to 500
No you can't. since there's no software for it you can only choose between the four dpi presets, for me that's fine since I'm used to 400 dpi for everything now
could i make a macro with the zowie ec2-A
Aaron Fuglsbjerg there are no drivers for this mouse, you may be able to use 3rd party software to create macros
Hi something bothers me , i don't seem to get what the USB rate is for? how does it function? what does it do?
Polling rate? If you are referring to polling rate, it is how fast data is sent from your mouse to the pc. If you have a newer pc go to 1000 polling rate.
Thanks! can't tell the difference in csgo
Thanks!
I would like to know if it's possible to unbind something on my Zowie ZA12.
There is 3 ways to switch the Hertz.
Mouse5 = 1000Hz
Mouse4 = 500Hz
Mouse5 + Mouse4 = 125Hz
I use 1000Hz. When i play, i'm talking ingame with Mouse5 and i'm using mouse4 to build in this game. When i use one of this two buttons my game freeze until i don't press it anymore. Because the mouse try to switch Hertz obviously.
So i would like to know if there is a way to unbind the button to switch Hertz since i don't need to do it anymore.
The mouse does not try to switch herts if you press the button at the same time etc, the only time the hertz would switch is if you hold those and unplug and plug the mouse back in. I am not sure why your game would be freezing when pushing both the buttons at the same time. What game are you playing, i can maybe do some research on it real fast.
Hey, hello and thanks for the reply.
This happen only in FORTNITE the battleroyale mod. In CS:GO or any other game, it's fine. But i use the mouse a lot more in Fortnite.
I know i have to plug to mouse and hold one button or both for a different setting, but it really seem like the mouse try to and not react to my mouvements for 2 secondes ingame.
It is not when i press them together, just when i press mouse5 or mouse4 and turn the mouse. Actually, maybe if i press them together but i can't not tell(i haven't tried).
If i press mouse4 like real quick, it doesn't freeze, but if i press it for 2 secondes or more and click mouse1 to finish the build, sometime it does. Same for the mouse5 button.
It's Doesn't happen everytime. It's hard to describe because it's really quick. I'm not sure the game will freeze but the mouse, yes, 100%. Like i can't not turn to look around and stuff for 2 secondes.
I would try a few things, first off what are your PC specs, also what polling rate are you using, and have you tried a different USB port on your PC? Are you using USB 3.0, or 2.0 port?
Yes, the mouse was plugged to a USB 3.0 since a few days... So i went back to the USB 2.0 and everything is ok now. My mistake, i would probably not think about it without your help. ^^
Thanks a lot!
I am glad you were able to resolve it! Maybe try and get some updated USB 3.0 drivers from your motherboards factory website.
mannn i want to use Low LOD but my clothpad doesn't let me. i have Roccat Taito 5mm and barely tracks on Low LOD
I would try a smoother cloth pad, or go to a hard pad.
Need ur help i cant know my rate ? Like 500 or 1000 i have fk2 but i need the software used in the video pls
Unknown__ScreaM there is a link in the description, give that a try. LMK
Mateckz I check it but nothing can u try to see for me 😘
@@ilscreamil9478 zowie.benq.com/ja/support/mouse-rate-checker.html Try this, i havent tried this, but it looks like zowie now has a mouse checker via HTML.
my fk2 barely moves on low LOD, is that mouse problem or its just how it is? (i play at 400 dpi)
duhfyy low LOD is really designed to be used with a hard surface/mouse Matt. What are you using it on?
Mateckz im having an zowie gs-r
duhfyy try going to medium LOD, you may be better off on that. Let me know how it feels on medium.
Mateckz ye i have been switching from medium and high past few days and for some reason high feels the most comfortable for me
I would stick with high then. LOD is very dependent on how it feels for the user. Personally i use a hard-pad, so low LOD works the best for me. When you're on a hard surface, medium/High LOD tracks when you live the mouse off the hard pad. Glad high turned out working for you brother!!!!
THANK YOUUUUU
Jerico Robles no problem! hope it helped you!
How do i see my dpi on this mouse?
When I do the Mouse4+Mouse2 my EC2-A is not tracking very good is the problem from the mouse or from the mousepad (QCK Heavy) ?
MiTriz sorry for the late reply on this, I would say it’s the surface. Do you have another one to test it on?
No unfortunately :/ I'm just trying to habituate with medium
Another question how do you deal with the cable ? I used to play with a wireless mouse so my EC2-A is new and Idk how to do I don't wanna waste my money on bungees cuz I'm broke right now :(
I made the cable straight I feel something wrong when I move the mouse it's uncomfortable and annoying
Thanks for reply budd :')
Hey, sorry have been out of town for a little bit, so what i do with my mouse cable is use a 3m adhesive hook and attach it to the back of my monitor. I then take a comfortable amount of slack on the mouse cord and loop it around the 3m hook so that the mouse cord almost floats. This gives it a very comfortable feel. If you want i can take a picture and post it on my twitter.
Thanks for the reply dude, Ye post a pic if you want it will be great :)
waiting for the pic lol
how do you open these settings?!? i plug the mouse in and it doesnt come up
There are no GUI drivers for this mouse, everything is changed through the mouse buttons etc.
Hey, quick question. Can I change the side buttons so that they switch DPI (button 5 increase DPI and button 4 decrease DPI)?
No, the button on the bottom of the mouse controls DPI.
dude, this mouse is perfect for my hand shape. they are so stupid for not putting software up for people. it drives me nuts.
should i even have LOD on the higher point?
Nikolas Olsen I dont see a point to have it on anything but the lowest setting, unless your mouse is having tracking issue with it, especially if you’re playing an FPS game. You have to pick your mouse up and dont want it tracking when your mouse is off the pad.
what LOD you recommend for cloth pad (steelseries qck+) & steelseries qck heavy .Have zowie ec2a mice.And what is the default LOD for zowie ec2a.for cs go.
Medium LOD is recommended for cloth pads, i believe default is medium for ec2-A (i could be wrong, I just remember changing it to low as i play on a hard pad.)
@@mateckz Thanks for the help mate.
Does this work on ec2-a?
how do i check my dpi
How can i have lower dpi then 400? Im used to play at 200 dpi
Hey, sorry for the late reply, unfortunately you can not set it that low with this mouse. You can use this cool calculator though to get the sensitivity that would replicate 200 DPI. www.easycalculation.com/other/dpi-calculator.php What is your current sens on 200 DPI you are playing at?
how do I change the binds for the side thumb buttons? for example set them to a different key.
Young Kelz what do you mean? You mean like have mouse4 be like mouse 3 or something? If so you can't do that with this mouse, the drivers are built into the mouse, so no GUI to set buttons as something else, why not just set your ingame buttons as something that works for you on the mouse?
like I know they're hardset to 4 & 5 but for example i use mousewheeldown to jump in game & button 5 is also set to jump when I usually set it to 1 to switch weapons. If that makes any sense, I also checked the in-game bind are not clashing.
Those would be in game binds you set in your game config, I use mouse wheel down to jump and mouse4 for nade cycle and mouse 5 to pull bomb out, so yes you can bind them to what ever you want. I hope that answers your question. From the sounds if it you just need to tweak your in game binds a bit.
you're right.
Glad you got it bro! Let me know if you need anything else, i can try :)
thx for helpful video!
gg but how can i make that all side buttons working?`im lefthandes player
You can either have the left side buttons work (for right handed players), or the right side buttons work (for left handed players) You can see in the video how to adjust mouse 4 and mouse 5 buttons at around 45 seconds in the manual on the right side of the video.
@@mateckz thanks but what i mean is . that its not possibe to use all 7 buttons same time
@@creakffm AHH sorry i misunderstood. Yea you can't get both sides working at once. Either right or left. plus mouse1, mouse2, mouse 3, scroll up/down. sorry :(
I think low lod is suitable for cloth pads
How much LOD in my fk1? My pad redragon kunlun l
Neus TIGER I believe that is a cloth pad so I would try medium LOD
My mouse doesn't track any dvd on highest LOD.. Is it a defective mouse? PD: I can change the HZ without problem :/
Which mouse pad do you have, i have seen a lot of players having issues with not so great cloth pads. Although high LOD you should have no issues tracking, it could be a defective mouse. Which mouse do you have?
Thanks for reply, i have a QcK Mass and zowie ec2-a. Sometimes when I lift the mouse the sensor takes time to respond, it is quite annoying. I bought the mouse a month ago and since I bought it i feel the same :/
I would def try to get a replacement and see if it happens with the new mouse. I have never heard of a mouse not tracking at HIGH LOD, are you sure its set to high LOD and not low LOD. Low may have some issues tracking on cloth pads.
I just did some test and I saw that if I set the LOD to low the mouse practically doesn't track.. Now in high track always good but this is the problem of when I lift the mouse does not track for a few milliseconds, also try with another pad (goliathus control) but there was no change. Anyway, I'll have to get used to it :/
thanks for the help
I would DEF try a different mouse, or RMA the one you have.

This works on ALL zowie mice, but the configuration process may be a bit different.
When i change my Zowie 12 to the lowest lod the mouse doesnt move.. some help
Sorry for the late response, What type of surface are you using?
Dude the lowest lift off distance to press is button 4 + button 1 not button 2
John Louis Buhian That’s not true, each mouse (version) is different. This particular mouse is what’s documented in the video.

Did you get it?
mouserate.exe
I linked it and it is in the description as well.
Can I disable the side buttons?
Not from the mouse, there may be some 3rd party software that allows you to do that though.
Does this apply to the FK2 as well?
I have not tested this with my FK2, the fk2 came out of box feeling pretty good, so i did not mess with this. I would try it. If it doesn't let me know ill do a video on it.
yes its same on all zowie mice :)

Excuse me, I wont prolly need this since this didnt help shit, But what are default 4 colors for zowie mouse @ 400, 800, 1600, 3200 ? ty bros for not having shit brians ;D
BOB BOBBSIN Not sure if this an an insult comment towards me lol, but typically the colors are 400dpi = Red, 800dpi = Purple/pink, 1600dpi = Blue, and 3200dpi = Green)
where do you open the setting panel?
There is no setting panel, the drivers are built into the mouse. Hence the creation of this video, explaining how to set the mouse up how you want it.
what about recoil? i have fk2 mouse but there is no driver or something for recoil pup g.... anybody has idea?
IM not sure what you mean by this? This is a driverless mouse. You set all the settings on the mouse's side. Once that is done you can plug the mouse in anywhere and it will keep your settings.
@@mateckz i mean i had logitech before it has got program and u can put some text inside and ur guns shooting better at the game. or u can make macro and ur gun has less recoil..

so this mouse cant set 1200 dpi?
Xmans___ 400/ 800/ 1600/ 3200 are the dpis you can set on this mouse. Hope this helps!
Mateckz mm too bad for me. i play on 1200 dpi
Try the Logitech G403 wired, solid mouse for around the same price. Only con for me is its not driver less and it has a braided mouse cord. Other than that its an accurate solid mouse.
HOW DO WE CHANGE CM/360??
Its not possible with the Zowie mice brother. You talking about DPI?
I just bought the FK2 and it doesn't track worth a damn on a QcK+ Heavy pad on Low LOD, should I return it or is it a known issue?
