    My controller is acting weird...


    So I tried playing a game on my Xbox one and suddenly, my left stick is drifting upwards. I even took out the grey pieces from the left stick and it still is drifting up. I'm not even touching the controller and it's not stuck or anything. It just keeps
    on pressing up. I know that it's not the grey part. Can someone please help me? I don't know what to do now...

    :)

  2. My controller acting weird.

    Whenever I click the A button, it acts like the xbox home button, and the xbox home button does what it is supposed to. I click A on something, it does what It is supposed to, but then it takes me to the xbox home. I could really use some help right now.

    My controller acting weird.

    Try performing a hard reset exactly like this.

    Hold the power button on the console for 8 seconds or until the power shuts down completely. Unplug the power cord from the back of the console for 5 minutes. Plug the power cord back in and restart the console. Once it is back up and operational test
    the results. Let us know if it works.

    Hope this helps. Good Luck!!

    Hey there Cosmic,

    Sorry to hear you are running into this problem with the controller. How long exactly have you had it? If it is under 90 days old then of course this controller should be in warranty and you can always set up a replacement order through the

    Device Support
    page.

    Of course the controller should not be doing this, But if new batteries aren't working and the controller is still running into problems I would recommend looking for a replacement, Or of course
    Contacting Xbox Customer Support to see if there is anything to be done with this.

    I hope this helps!

    Alright. Let's try to perform troubleshooting steps on your console as well just to ensure that it's not the issue.

    To fix this, please perform a power cycle on your console by following the steps below:

    POWERCYCLE CONSOLE​​​

    ​​​

    1. Turn off your console by holding the Xbox button on the front of the console for approximately 10 seconds. The console will turn off. ​​​

    2. Turn your console back on by pressing the Xbox button on the console or the Xbox button on your controller. ​​​

    If that didn't work resetting the console keeping games and apps will be the next option. Don't worry because as long as you're connected to Xbox Live your saved progress, games, will not be deleted. It will remove all of your accounts but you can add all of them later on.

    Press the Xbox button to open the guide.

    Select Profile & system > Settings > System > Console info.

    Select Reset console.

    Reset and keep my games & apps.
