My Xbox is giving me an E105 error. And my controller won't connect. Is it possible to fix it without a factory reset?

error E105 00000000 80070003

I am having the same problem, it was fine yesterday. When it comes on it gives me the System Error: E105 00000000 8007003. It won't cut off, Restart or Restore factory defaults. The only way I can cut it off is to unplug it... What's up with this???

 

Factory restore without a controller

My Xbox one had a startup error with code E105. The only solution listed to this on xbox support is a factory restore. I entered troubleshoot mode by holding the bind and eject buttons upon startup. The box labeled continue is highlighted,
but there is not a way to move the highlighted box to the factory reset option. I have tried rebinding my controller, using a different controller, connecting controller via micro usb cable, and connecting a usb keyboard, none of which could move the highlighted
box. Which brings me to my question, is there a way to factory reset without a controller? Can I connect my xbox to my computer? Can I remove a memory unit and erase/replace it? I would try preforming an offline software update but since I cannot move the
highlighted box I would not be able to move it to the offline update option either. Any help or insight would be appreciated.

 

Hi there,

please see the steps for E105 on this trouble shooting page, it has all the steps to try regarding this error code:
http://support.xbox.com/xbox-one/console/system-updates-solution

For E105 it will show these steps:

Step 6: Restore your console to factory defaults
If resetting your console does not correct your startup error, you can use the Xbox Startup Troubleshooter to completely restore your console to its factory settings.

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. You should only use this option as a last resort.

If you need to bring up the Xbox Startup Troubleshooter again, follow these steps:

1. Power off your console, and then unplug the power cord to ensure that the console is completely powered off.
   
2. Wait 30 seconds, then plug the power cord back in.
3. Press and hold the BIND button (located on the left side of the console) and the
   EJECT button (located on the front of the console), and then press the
   Xbox button on the console.
4. Continue holding the BIND and EJECT buttons for 10-15 seconds.
5. Listen for two “power-up” tones a couple of seconds apart. You can release the
   BIND and EJECT buttons after the second power-up tone.
6. The console should power up and take you directly to the Xbox Startup Troubleshooter.
   

To reset your console from the Xbox Startup Troubleshooter, use the D-pad and
A button on your controller to select Reset this Xbox. When prompted, select
Remove everything.

If all fails you will either need to set up a repair or contact Xbox Support like mentioned on that troubleshooting page. When contacting Xbox Support use either the Phone option or the Microsoft Support Chat option on

Was really hoping to avoid this but it looks like i'm gonna have to bite the bullet. Thanks
