    Controller update December 2021


    Hi guys.

    About a week ago my controllers when idle started to behave differently. Instead of just pressing the Xbox button to reconnect them i was given a prompt on screen saying i needed a controller for this game and to press A to connect.

    Sometimes it works but mostly doesnt.... Sometimes i get a blank screen and the only way to rectify it is a reset of the console. Even this doesnt work all the time and may need several attempts before i can load into the same or any other game. Ive had an error code that isn't on the xbox list also...

    I was using a series x with an older style controller. I saw there was an update for the controller so did this and it seemed to work ok for a day and now its worse than before...

    I bit the bullet and purchased rechargable batteries for the series x controller. Again this worked ok for a day with the new controller but now started to malfunction again... Ive bought a new controller and still have the same issues.

    Im out of ideas now and £100 down.. Can anyone help please?

    :)

    Indeed, the recent update on the controller's firmware has been causing some issues, I did experience an issue, but it was on my PC. It kept disconnecting after a few minutes of usage.

    Cool! Please, let me know how it went.

    Controller update December 2021

    Hi.

    Yes ive tried 4 different controllers on the series x console and all do the same. I have a second series x and they all do it with that console also.

    Ive tried my older gen controllers which did work perfectly until last week and also the new gen controllers that came with the series X's i have.

    Ive purchased a new controller also from Microsoft and get the same thing.

    Ill try what you say and report back later. Im a mber of a gaming group and im not alone with this issue and it doesnt seem to be 100% related to the new gen consoles and controllers as others using one x and s are experiencing the same thing since the latest update last week.

    Controller update December 2021

    Ok still getting the same issues on both series X consoles with 4 controllers between them.

    The only thing I didn't do is set the console as my home one. The reason being we have 4 consoles in the house and i have to set up a differemt onr as hime console so my kids can use gold live as guests. If inset one of the 2 series x as my home then they can't use gold Live on the others..

    Im getting blank screens amd cant even fo back to the xbox hime page from it sometimes and have to reset the console. Then it tries to quick resume me back into the game amd i cant do anything as it still doesn't allow me to use the controller. Incant leave or quit so have to turn off the xbox at the wall and hooe that works

    Hello dear Gamer, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

    My name is Vinicius.

    I am a gamer and independent advisor on the XBOX community platform.

    Hey MatchewSTW, how are you today? Hope you're well.

    MatchewSTW, did you test those controllers on another device? Like a PC or even on your mobile phone or a friend's console? Did those controllers exhibit that same behaviour?

    Try this on your console:

    First clean the cache of your console that way:

    1. With the console turned on, hold the XBOX power button on the console for 10 seconds until you hear a small sound.

    2. Wait 10 seconds.

    3. Turn it back on.

    Note: It may take a while for him to call, don't worry, it's normal.

    Then, restore your console keeping the games and apps:

    ***IMPORTANT*** If you share accounts with someone, you will have to redo the process of placing the account as the main one again, be aware of the chances you still have to do this, as Microsoft makes available per year, only 5 chances so you can make some account your console's main account.

    1. Press the Xbox button to open the dashboard.

    2. Select System > Settings > System > Console Information >

    3. Select Reset console > Restore and keep my games and apps.

    4. When asking to pull settings from an old xbox, put no

    5. You will have to log in your accounts again, and when you sign in with your account, make sure you turn it has your home console also, that's it.

    NOTE: Rest assured, you won't lose games or saves
