    Black Screen After Startup


    I am part of the Xbox Preview Program, so I believe I am on the newest update. This version of Xbox has a revamped Xbox Guide/Sidebar that includes things such as who has gained the most achievement points for the month (I haven't fully checked all of the
    features out yet and also I am not sure when the update was rolled out. From a quick Google search, it seems like the update was a few days ago). I am not sure if most of the Xbox Community has the update.

    I have talked about my issue, which will be discussed into detail later on, for over an hour with an Xbox Support Staff through text chat but was unable to resolve it and was diverted to the forums.

    So my issue started when I powered on my Xbox. This was around five hours after I fully shut it down (holding the Xbox logo on the console for around 10 seconds) after a couple games of Rocket League. There was not an update going on at the time of shutting
    it down. The normal, green Xbox startup screen came up when it started. After a few seconds, I was able to see "Hi (insert first name)!" on the bottom of the screen, indicating that the Xbox has logged me in. After this has occurred, all I was able to see
    was a black screen. So to recap, I started Xbox, showed the green startup screen, went to a black screen and showed me being logged in at the bottom and then it stayed as a black screen.

    There were only two things I was able to do. I was able to insert a disk into the Xbox. This loaded up the game so I can actually see the contents of the game, in this case, I loaded up FIFA 15 and was able to see the startup screen and do all of the other
    things in the game. I tried to open up the Xbox Guide by double tapping the guide button but all that did was freeze the game for about 1/4ths of a second. The sidebar never showed up. The second thing I was able to do was hold the Xbox Guide button. That
    gave me the basic options of shutting down the console/controller, report a problem, enable narration, etc. I turned on the narrator to see if it would work and it did, but turned it back off afterwards. I go and try to report a problem and when I click on
    it, the Xbox tries to open a separate app and when it tries to do that, I receive "Sorry, that didn't work for some reason (0x80070002)".

    When I told this part to the Xbox Support, I was given several possible solution that we tried out. First, I turned off the Xbox by holding down the Xbox logo for 10 seconds on the console, unplugged all of the cords and waited two minutes After that, I
    plugged it back in and started up the console. Unfortunately, I was met with the same thing as previously stated. I saw the green startup screen, saw my name on the bottom indicating me logging in, and just stayed as a black screen afterwards. The individual
    from Xbox Support suggested to try a different TV screen or monitor but I was unable to complete that task. Also, I believe that was not the issue, since I was able to see the contents of a game from the same TV.

    So, as a summary, I am unable to see the Xbox Dashboard or the Xbox Guide/Sidebar, completely limiting my ability to use the console. I am only able to play games that I have a disk for. I can't see my feed, friends, games and apps, etc. Even after doing
    the power cycle method, the problem still persists.

    My speculation to this problem is that there could be a possible bug in the latest update that I received from the Xbox Preview Program that was overlooked. This bug has a small chance to cause a malfunction in the startup process of the Xbox One, where
    it doesn't load the essential components that are needed to see the Xbox Dashboard and in turn, just shows a black screen.

    :)

    Hey there! To minimize confusion because troubleshooting may be different for preview updates than regular versions, you'll want to post this, and everything else preview related in the preview forums (forums.xbox.com/.../default.aspx).
    This will also ensure that the proper team sees your post and can help you out. Also, make sure you look at the list of known issues to see if there is a workaround.

    If you haven't already, be sure to report any issues via the preview app on your console, so that all relevant data gets reported to Microsoft.

    we're having the same or similar problem and nothing is working to fix it. I've tried the hard boot, the reset, the offline update, even the factory reset... still ... the xbox will power on but the operating system won't start and will have nothing on
    the screen. All our cables are good- checked those. Outlets are good- checked those! I've checked everything and am really disgusted with this piece of crap at the moment. Have you had any luck? any advice that worked? found anything the might work?
