@NECROM, when you say Titanfall and BF won't go past the home screen, do you mean the Home screen for the CONSOLE, the initial "splash" screen for the game (basically, quitting back to the home screen right after loading) or the main menu screen for the
game?

For those particular issues, I would recommend a hard power cycle of the console (hold the "Nexus" power light on the console for 8-10 seconds, then wait until the power brick turns orange, then start back up again.) I personally experienced an issue last
night with a game loading the splash screen, then immediately returning to the home screen, and a hard reset fixed it.

Hope this helps!

My xbox one has updated and now xbox fitness won't load just keeps returning me to the home screen I know it's a new console but seems like there's alot of issues to solve

I also have the same issue, loading screen appears for 20 to 30 seconds and just returns to the xbox home screen

Hi Brandon, my name is Rodrigo. I'm an Independent Advisor and a member of the Microsoft community and I'd love to assist you today.

I am sorry to hear that.

Have you tried to do a system reinstall?

For a detailed guide, please use this link: https://support.xbox.com/help/hardware-network/console/reset-console-to-factory-defaults

It's a two-step process using a computer and your console, I highly recommend you use the above link for a better reading experience.

If you prefer a step-by-step guide here, please, follow these steps:

------------------------------------------------
First Step (On the Computer):
------------------------------------------------

Plug your USB flash drive into a USB port on your computer.

Select the following link to download the reset file to your computer: https://www.xbox.com/xboxone/restorefactorydefaults

Select Save to save the console update.zip file to your computer (if it doesn't download automatically).

To unzip the compressed file, right-click on the file and then select Extract all from the pop-up menu.

Copy the $SystemUpdate file from the .zip file to your USB flash drive

---------------------------------------------------
Second Step (On your console):
---------------------------------------------------

Unplug the network cable if you're using a wired network connection.

Power off your console, and then unplug the power cord to ensure that the console is completely powered off.

Wait 30 seconds, and then plug the power cord back in.

Plug the flash drive into a USB port on your console. For more information, see:

Press and hold the Pair button (Xbox Series X|S: located on the front next to the USB port) and the Eject button (Xbox Series X: located just above the disk drive slot), and then press the Xbox button on the console.

Note The Xbox Series S and the Xbox One S All-Digital Edition do not have an Eject button. On this console, you only need to hold the Pair button and then press the Xbox button.

Continue holding the Pair button and Eject button for 10-15 seconds.

Listen for two "power-up" tones a couple of seconds apart.

You can release the Pair button and Eject button after the second power-up tone.

When the console restarts, remove the flash drive.

Once the console restarts, you should see the digital setup experience to guide you through resetting your console.

Let me know if it works!
