    Controller still frequently doesn't sync


    Since series x launch day I've had this issue and none of the quick fixes people have recommended like reseting the console, taking out the batteries, or unplugging have managed to fix it for more then a few minutes. I have the latest controller firmware and still this issue persists. I constantly send feedback reports whenever it occurs. (Use the Xbox app on phone to send reports.) It's so very frustrating. Who else is still having this issue?

    New preview update makes games unplayable

    I forget to mention that I experience frequent controller disconnects now as well... And the controller sync button doesn't work after installing the latest preview.

    NEED HELP CONTROLLER WILL NOT CONNECT

    Backward compatibility starts with the permission of the original game developer/publisher. Activision will have to give their okay to Microsoft before it is released for backward compatibility.

    This article shows all of the possible troubleshooting steps you can take when the Xbox 360 controller is having trouble syncing with the console: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-360/accessories/wireless-controller-disconnects-frequently-or-ca...

    Worst case: if you have exhausted all of the steps in the article and it still doesn't work, the controller will have to be replaced.
