Corsair Virtuoso - Need dongle firmware


Recommended Posts

Today my headset randomly decided to brick itself. It was connected via wireless mode with the dongle but couldn't mute the mic, switch to wired, also had no overall "control" to say over the headset. I did a shutdown by holding the mic mute button down and that seemed to fix half the issues.

So now I am able to use the headset completely fine but ONLY in wired mode. When I go to icue to pair the dongle shows up but nothing ever happens after I click pair. I've tried downloading old icue firmware and then the dongle doesn't even show in the software. My buddy had a similar issue with his Virtuoso and downloading an older firmware and forcing it to update it solved his issues. However, I can not find a download for any older or even the latest dongle firmware.

TLDR: Headset bricked, fixed, dongle still bricked. Need latest or older dongle firmware to try a force update. I have the non special edition, carbon corsair virtuoso.

Here, the same problem also happened and at the same time

Hey R3IDx and Neto - what are the firmware versions of your VIRTUOSOs and your dongles?

Hi all,

I've messaged everyone here regarding this issue. For users who encounter this thread in the future:

If you are encountering the issue of only your VIRTUOSO/dongle being on firmware 5.x.xx, but not its companion (ex. VIRTUOSO receiver is on 5.5.102, VIRTUOSO headset is on 0.17.149), PLEASE create a ticket HERE.

PART NUMBER: CA-9011180

My Corsair Virtuoso RGB Wireless SE were working perfect since i bought them.
I got them on June 2021 new and I haven,t got a problem never.
I,m from Spain.

But since yesterday started to not work wirelessly and just wired without explanation.

My dongle flashes red and then stays white for long until it turns off
I tried to restart them and by turning them ON/OFF they work for few seconds but the headsets turns off again and the dongle keeps connected for a while until it turns off as well

I dont understand why happens this, i supposed that it,s because some firmware issue
Because my firmware version on the dongle is previous of the headset version

My ICUE Version: 4.18.209
My Headset version: 0.17.149
My dongle version: 0.16.80

I hope you will bring me the firmware versions, older or whatever it needs to put it on both of them to get them working 

As i get for sure it`s because of this that doesn,t work as they have never been damaged.

Thanks.

Hello, my headset has firmware  v.0.17.149 and my dongle is v.0.16.80. Is there anyway I can get the dongle firmware update? Since iCUE 4 I've had problems with my headset. They were crystal clear and now theres a subtle static that becomes more noticeable with people talking. Hoping a firmware update can help. I see others on 5.x.x and I don't even have 1.x.x 😞

Hi, my part number is CA-9011186.

I've had two different virtuosos and the same problem happened when I updated a firmware. The dongle firmware version is 5.5.102 and the Virtuoso's is 0.17.149. I'm not sure which the previous version is, but I downloaded iCUE again in early December if that helps. I'd really appreciate some help. Thank you for the info and help!

Corsair Albert was clear - MESSAGE him. Don't post in this thread. I've updated his post to make that section bigger and more obvious.
