I feel somewhat stupid but after trying to fix it for hours and just minutes after creating this issue I managed to somehow fix it?
I looked at the recent issues and saw the mention of a pre-release (which I did not see priors because github only shows the releases in the main section) I thought I'd give the pre-release a try because it might already fix my issue. I downloaded the source code and ran the bin/solaar
file. It now shows me all the options that were not there previously. I then quit the 1.1.11rc version and tried again in the 1.1.10 version that I created the issue over. It now works in this version as well? So I'd say my issue has been fixed...
I am really sorry for writing it, but in my defense I did try and look through all the issues prior and could not get it to work 😅
Here is the now current screenshot:
I am unsure if I should close the issue, because clearly there was something wrong beforehand. You are more than welcome to close the issue without any comment, I'll just leave it here in case there is some use in it for you :)
Something strange was definitely going on. I'll take a look and see if I can make a guess at the problem.
Your config.yaml file has multiple entries for your 3S. You should remove all but one. Make sure that the one you leave has all the settings in it. Or you can just remove them all and have Solaar create a new entry.
I don't see any issues in 1.1.10 with my MX Master 3, which has very similar functionality. I suspect that there were communications glitches with the mouse when Solaar was setting it up.
I'm closing this for now.
I assumed the multiple entries came from me once connecting it via BT and once via the Bolt receiver.
I tried stopping solaar, deleting the file, and then starting solaar and turning on the MX 3s prior to this issue so that only the relevant entry would show up but solaar recreated even the MX 2s without connecting. I'll try only deleting one specific entry this time.
That makes sense, yeah!
Thanks again for your time :)
Solaar should keep only one entry for each device. There are known problems precisely identifying devices due to the various ways devices and receivers report identifying information for devices. The Solaar code for doing this is likely to be upgraded in the near future so spending time trying to track down what actually happened is probably not too useful.

:Describe the bug
I recently bought a Logitech MX Master 3s and wanted to set it up using solaar. Unfortunately I am seeing none of the options like button diversion or the option to use / set the mouse gesture button, key actions, DPI settings, etc. (please see the attached screenshot to see what the options I see are). I also do not see the battery status at all.
I do have write permissions to
/dev/uinput
and it worked flawlessly with my previous MX 2s.I have also tried to connect the mouse using the bolt receiver because while I would prefer bluetooth I understand that using the receiver could potentially improve usability. However the settings are not present there, either. Battery levels on the other hand do get reported when connected using the bolt receiver. Or at least they did because as of right now solaar crashes when I plug in the bolt receiver (I will look into it further since I am sure this is just a bug I caused because it worked before flawlessly. I mentioned it here to let you know that I can currently not test with it).
I also read through nearly all issues containing the term "MX 3s" and tried some things mentioned there but it did not help or was an issue with having no access to
/dev/uinput
, which I do.When running
solaar -ddd
I found out that solaar does not log any event or message when I am pressing the mouse gesture button.I also tried setting the mouse up with windows, which might have caused the errors with the bolt receiver. This however did not bring any of the settings "back", either.
If there is any further information you'd need from me, please let me know and I'll provide it asap.
Also thank you so much for this project, it made my life so much easier using my MX 2s! And also thank you for taking time out of your day and looking at my issue.
