can you send me please the modified files? I want to "hack" my receiver which comes with M325 to work with other mouses. Thank you very very very much! jardadjart@gmail.com

The issue is even worst. I downloaded the utility for Windows 7 and ran it. It displays the headset but it never pairs to it. Does anyone here knows the difference from pairing this USB receiver with the headset to pairing a USB receiver with a mouse? I'd be willing to try to implement it and share back here.

I can also confirm that this works with my M305 mouse and Nano Receiver. Added a pull request: #8 See here for my fork: https://github.com/mifi/logitech_unifier

I have a similar question! I recently acquired a non-Logitech RF keyboard, and was wondering if it was possible to connect it to a unifying receiver, either by adding code to the receiver or the keyboard.

Hi, does anyone know if it's possible to connect a non-unifiying M185 mouse to a unifying receiver (or to another kind of receiver)?

Hi I bought a logitech combo k270 (keyboard and mouse) K270 keyboard and m185 mouse. They came without the nano receiver because the person I bought them from had their laptop stolen about 2 weeks after they bought the keyboard/mouse, and the receiver was in the laptop. I have bought a replacement receiver with the same part number (non-unifying nano receiver C-U0010). I haven't yet managed to persuade the receiver to pair with the mouse or keyboard. I have read online that these devices come pre-paired and that what I am trying to do is impossible. I run windows 10 at home and Windows 7 at work. Is there a way for me to pair these devices or have I wasted my money? It seems to me that if you guys can't help me, no-one can!

@djart01 Are you aware that more modern tools exist, such as ltunify (simple) and https://github.com/pwr/Solaar (more advanced)?

This is great! I have a broken M280 mouse and a new M331 mouse that lost the receiver. With this, I use a Raspberry Pi to run the script to pair the old M280 receiver and M331 mouse and voila it worked brilliantly.

(if you know the path, you can also use upower -i /org/freedesktop/UPower/devices/keyboard_0003o046DoC52Bx001B to restrict the output to a single device)

Is it possible to change the single nano receiver working with a M185 mouse to work with a K270 keyboard that is not unifying?

I have M305 and M175 mice. both of them come with one of these Nano receivers. I added the ID to the code and your pairing tool worked, both mice pair successfully.

what about this one? i gor this non unifying big receiver with mk 215 KB & mouse combo. i have already one logi mouse with unifying receiver when i want to connect this mk 215 keyboard with that unifying receiver with logitech software, it says device not supported. i want to use old mouse and new KB only. is there any way?

Hello! Can I pair the M185 wireless mouse to a generic bluetooth adapter? (lost the receiver) Any help is very much welcome. Thank you!

i have a m185 mouse p/n 810-004208 m-r0038 fcc id jnzmr0038 and the unifying software said "you are trying to pair a non unyfing compatible" but as far as i know the m185 is compatible

@RjShadow https://github.com/RjShadow The radio communication is proprietary, so no, you cannot pair a Unifying mouse with a non-logitech receiver.

It does support battery information, although the granularity depends on the device. For example, an Anywhere MX can report battery with a precision of 1%, but a M525 mouse can only report "critical" (5%), "low" (20%), "high" (50%) or "full" (90%).

Yeah it's both Bluetooth and USB. My 1st attempt was to use this utility, but I tried it for both Windows and Mac and none of them worked. That's why I turned to Linux to see if there could be anything in the Linux world I could use to pair it.

The H800 is Bluetooth, not Unifying. Try to put the headset in pairing mode: http://support.logitech.com/en_hk/article/26700 If that doesn't work you'll probably need the Logitech utility: http://support.logitech.com/en_us/article/26699

Some devices, like the M280 mouse, come with a non-Unifying Nano receiver, but the device itself is branded with the Unifying logo somewhere. If that's the case, then it can be also be paired with a Unifying receiver. Usually the manual of the device also states this information somewhere, see https://forums.logitech.com/t5/Mice-and-Pointing-Devices/M280-and-unifying/td-p/1327901

Once a receiver and a device are paired you don't need Unifying software any more, unless you want to pair to a different device/receiver, or if you want info about battery status.

Will this work with the K345 keyboard and or m275? Kind of a noob at this and want to reconnect everything in my set up except one device is unifying and the other is a newer nano.

Thank you for your quick response. The combo MK270 is unifying compatible (with the unify sign on it). I tried Logitech connection utility as you told, but it doesn't work. I used unify dongle and it says : "the device you are trying to pair is not unifying compatible" Is it even possible? they are just the same product model (well with different device ID) and not unify compatible? Is there any hack to do this? @cinchcircuits just did it with his own dongle which has the same hardware ID.

Is it possible to change the single nano receiver working with a M185 mouse to work with a K270 keyboard that is not unifying?

Logitech WIRELESS COMBO MK345 comes with a non-unifying reciever.(Nano reciever). Can this combo be pared with logitech unifying reciever ? On spec page on logitech site, it says that the combo is not unifying ready. But still, has anyone attempted to connect non-unifying logitech products with logitech Unifying recievers? @RjShadow has asked a similar query, but for different branded recievers.

I need to repair it since I bought a new USB receiver because the original one broke. Before I was using this headset normally in Ubuntu 14.04 and RHEL 7.3. With the new USB receiver, it's still recognized in Gnome, I can see it and select it in sound settings, etc. However, I need to pair the new USB receiver with the headset.

Some Unifying-ready Logitech devices, such as the M305 mouse, come with a non-Unifying receiver. It looks the same, but instead of the Unifying logo it has "NANO RECEIVER" written on the case. The device ID of the nano receiver is 0xc52f.

I'm having the same issue now - I've purchased a new receiver, however cannot get the windows re-pairing utility to work. Did you ever get this figured out (linux or windows)?? Thanks, Roy

I'm trying to use this to pair a non-unifying receiver with a Logitech H800 Wireless headset. Do you think it could work? Here are some more info about the Logitech H800 headset:

I had a combo mouse and keyboard with m185 mouse and k270 keyboard. my mouse got broken. So I bought a new m185 mouse which apparently has not a unify dongle (no unify sign on it) with the device id of 0xc534 (same as the id that cinchcircuits added in commit ac8343). The new m185 cannot unify with old dongle and the old keyboard cannot be unify with the new non unify dongle. I'm in a bad situation as you see :)) I even tried windows setpoint tool but it gives me the error that it is not supported! Please help me with this issue. with the new dongle connected and turning old keyboard off it gives:

Good morning, I received this nano receiver yesterday, whose ad said it was compatible with the mk345 keyboard + mouse model, which I own. I connected the nano receiver, it connects to the computer but the keyboard and mouse don't work. Does anyone know what I can do? Thanks in advance :).

IIRC neither the receiver that comes bundled with the M185 nor the one from the MK270 combo are Unifying receivers, so they are not compatible with SetPoint. However, the Logitech Connection Utility should work.

@djart01 There exist a receiver (yours?) that can only pair to a single device. In order to use it with other devices, you need to unbind (unpair) it first. Anyway, since you are using windows you should try the software provided by Logitech, SetPoint.
