    Controller - console wont connect!


    Hello from a super noob! A friend recently lent me his xbox one original (the one that has the bluetooth thing on the bottom next to a usb slot) without the controller (he lost it, hasnt used for 2 years). I borrowed a green controller from another friend (recently purchased by his sister) with the model 1914. Problem: the controller wont connect to the console! i have tried connecting the controller to my surface Go 2, and it conected. i searched on youtube for any solution, but connecting the controller to the console via a usb-type C cable didnt work. This has been going on for 5 hours. Does anyone has other solutions? I already have an xbox 360, and the controller cable doesnt match the new controller. Please and thank you!

    :)

    Will New Controllers Need Updating?

    The controller doesnt update the firmware/drives do. As soon as you connect the controller it will have the current drivers on the console. You wont have to do a thing.

    Controller will NOT Connect

    When you say your controller wont connect do you mean the controller wont turn on or do you mean the controller does turn on but it is just not connected

    One x beep but didnt turn on before i took out the power cable question

    Nothing was wrong with the controller battery, but it was also connected steering wheel with usb.

    What happened was that we should turn it on with the wheel, no response, theb trying the controller no reaponse controller wont connect, then turn on with power button on the console, nothing happen other then a short beep.

    Generic bluetooth/wireless gamepad compatible with Xbox 360?

    Hi Tanalbi,

    Im not sure a Bluetooth remote like this will work on your console as it wont be able to connect to the consoles Bluetooth system, and even with an adapter, there's a chance there will be "input lag" between the controller and console.

    Its best to find another controller that is compatible rather.

    Xbox One controller not working despite being connected

    Hello Yale,

    Thanks for coming to the forums with your issue with the controller. Please make sure first, your console is plugged directly into the wall outlet. This can have a major effect on the console and everything the console does, if plugged into a surge protector
    or ext. cord.

    Is that the only thing the controller is doing is wont stay connected?

    Thanks,

    Brad
