  1. Controller Hardware or Software issue?


    So I've had an issue with a controller for awhile now, when I try to hold the Xbox home button (to bring up the power off, restart prompts), it will regularly open the blade menu (as if I only pressed it).

    I have to do this 4 or 5 times before I can power it off. Haven't had issues like this before tried updating, no impact.

    Anyone else have something similar? Plan on getting a new controller soon anyway, but figured I'd check.

    Xbox hardware? or software? issues?

    Still having issue with console not turning on? Please make sure to follow ALL the steps listed on this link:

    support.xbox.com/.../console-wont-power-on
    . That will help to properly isolate if it's an issue with your console or power supply.

    If you continue to experience some unusual activity on your system, you may to reset your console and follow the steps:

    support.xbox.com/.../reset-console-to-factory-defaults


    You can try to first option: reset and keep my games & apps, if issue still persist, try the last option: reset and remove everything.

    Warning: Resetting your console to its factory defaults erases all accounts, saved games, settings, and home Xbox associations. Anything not synchronized with Xbox Live will be lost. Your console syncs with Xbox Live automatically when it’s connected with
    the service, so if you've been offline for a while, you'll need to connect to Xbox Live before taking these steps.

    Xbox hardware? or software? issues?

    How long exactly is since release? One s, or original one? Have you tried performing a hard reset? Holding power button on console until it shuts itself down. Wait a full minute ave turn back on.

    And there were issues with Xbox core services today as well.

    The software controls the hardware so it may have been the update that caused his issue

    How is this ok?

    So updating the controller isn't an option ? Its a hardware issue vs software ?

    Xbox controller

    None of that fixes my issue. Every controller I buy feels cheap hardware and software based. There has not been a single controller that was comparable to the Gow controller I've owned.

    I'm not sure what Microsoft did, but whatever they did I've had nothing but hardware and software issues ever since. It feels like I'm buying one of those Ebay Chinese controllers..even though it's OEM retail.
