  1. Blinking power button while console is on


    Why would the power button on the Xbox one blink rapidly while I am playing a game? Is this something serious or is it may be a synching issue? This is not the slow flashing light when it downloads something or shut it down.

    Thank you

    :)

  2. Xbox one power button blinking whilst console is turned ON?

    So im not alone!!

    Ive been having this problem with my console too. Ill be playing a game (Gears 4 if it matters) and at random intervals my power button on the front of the console will flash repeatedly like it does when its trying to sync a pad!! Sometimes there is a clicking
    noise coming from within the xbox. It is very worrying to me as no one else has had this problem...until i found this post that is.

    It seems that pressing the sync button on the pad gets it to stop, but only for a moment as it soon starts again. Other than the flashing light, the power button does not respond when it is pressed. There are no other issues, no technical problems. the games
    run smoothly, etc. But this is very worrying.

    There are no other instances of this happening anywhere online that i can find. **** is going on!

    Also...as of last night, my xbox has decided to turn itself off whilst loading an online game...that may sound strange, but this also happened to 4 other firends at the exact same time...TWICE!!

    Blinking power button while console is on

    If it is working properly it may just need to be reset. Do a hard reset on the console by holding the power button on the console for 10 seconds or until it powers down completely. Then unplug the power cable from the back of the console for 5 minutes
    then plug it back in and restart the console. Test it to see if it is still displaying the same behavior. Good Luck!

    One thing you should also do is verify that you are running the latest software/patches.

  7. I came to the conclusion it is a synching issue between the controller and X1. It hasn't happened in a few months since I resynced my controllers. But it seemed to happened only with the controllers with out the 3.5mm Jack. My Elite controller and newer
    one with the. 3.5 mm Jack. My older 2 controllers broke. The LB/RB buttons broke.

    Xbox Live Gold code only for Xbox 360?

    Sorry to hear it. Can you please try power cycling the console by holding the power button on it for 10 seconds until it shuts down. Then, while it's off press and hold the power button while unplugging it at the same time. Be sure to keep the power button
    pressed until it stops blinking if it is.

    Let it sit for 10 minutes and then power back on. Hopefully your Gold will show then.
