Xbox one x wont complete manual updates process, how to fix it

Hi there! This is Virginia O.

I understand that you are experiencing issues with completing the update on the Xbox.

I apologize for the inconvenienced this has caused you. I will do my best to help you.

Please check storage space. Make sure your Xbox has enough free storage space. Clear unnecessary files or apps to make room for the update.

And then verify internet connection because updates hang due to poor connectivity. Check your network connection and restart your router to make sure your Xbox is connected to a stable network.

Next is to get the Start up troubleshooter:

Power off your console, and then unplug the power cord to ensure that the console is completely powered off.

Wait 30 seconds, and then plug the power cord back in.

Press and hold the Pair button and the Eject button on the console, and then press the Xbox button  on the console.

NOTE: The Xbox Series S and the Xbox One S All-Digital Edition do not have Eject buttons. You can bring up the Xbox Startup Troubleshooter on this console by holding only the Pair button (steps 3 and 4) and then pressing the Xbox button .

Continue holding the Pair and Eject buttons for 10-15 seconds.

Listen for two “power-up” tones a couple of seconds apart. You can release the Pair and Eject buttons after the second power-up tone.

The console should power up and take you directly to the Xbox Startup Troubleshooter.

Once you see it, please choose: "Continue" and this should restart your Xbox to continue the update.

Thank you for your cooperation.

I troubleshot for 3 days now and finally found a FIX!!!!

i don't remember the link but you need the manual update on a USB

bring up the troubleshoot screen on your xbox one x

do the offline update let it go through the process and boom! it should be working now. goodluck.

The xbox one is the one that completely turns off. The xbox one x wont make it past the screen that allows you to do an offline update. So it's broke.

The transfer process is not automatic. You need to manually transfer your saves one at a time.

On the 360, select your save and press 'Y' to upload for the Xbox One. Once the upload has completed you can select 'X' on the Xbox One save selection screen to download the save.

Repeat this process for all the saves you want to transfer.

Here is a video showing the process: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qbddTrt0i_c

After the Verifying stage of the update the console will shut down and restart to Apply the update.

On a Series X you should see the Xbox button flash about 5-6 times as it restarts before the screen will go blank and then a few seconds later the console will restart so the update can be Applied.

Don't interrupt this process by manually restarting the console. If you do interrupt this process the update will download and verify again, and then do a automatic restart so it can Apply the update. Be patient while it completes and returns to the sign-in screen.
