    My controller only turns on via USB


    my controller only turns on via USB, and once turned on it works fine until it's turned off again. Ive only had my Xbox one 4 months so it's still under warranty, how would I go about getting it repaired?

    :)

    XBOX Chatpad - Windows 10

    I can connect my Xbox One S Controller to my Windows 10 PC via Bluetooth, but it will only show in the Xbox Accessories app if I connect it via USB.

    Also, the Chatpad will only turn on if I plug the controller in via USB. If the controller is connected via bluetooth, the chapped will not work, and the lights will not come on. So I'm assuming it's not turned on at all.

    Is there a way to get the chapped to work over bluetooth with Windows 10?

    Also, when plugging in headphones, sound will only come out of the left ear. How do I get stereo sound?

    Windows 10 automatically installs driver and pair with an Xbox One Wireless Controller

    Hi. I am having some problems with my Xbox One Wireless Controller and Windows 10 laptop connection. I hope you can help me, below are the details of the issue.

    1. When I turn on bluetooth, Windows 10 automatically installs driver for a Xbox Wireless Controller even if my controller is still switched off. I tried removing the paired controller from the devices but everytime I restart bluetooth it reinstalls again.

    2. When I try to connect my Xbox Wireless Controller to laptop via bluetooth, Windows 10 cannot detect the controller. I can only use my controller via wired usb connection.

    I have installed this before and works perfectly via bluetooth, now I can only use the controller via wired usb connection.

    My controller only turns on via USB

    You can set up a repair of your console and accessories at this link:

    However, if the controller is not turning on when only powered by batteries you should make sure that the batteries are good ones and that they are put in properly. If the controller won't work with them in one way try turning them around.

    Hi thanks for the advice but it's still the same, I can disconnect my controller and it runs fine on the batteries. What I have found once I got it turned on is that the Xbox button is unresponsive, so I'm guessing that's the fault.

    Only Xbox Home button working

    This happened to one of my controllers after the February controller update. Only home button works if connected via wireless, when I hold the home button the only option that pops up is to turn off console, as if the controller is not even connected. When
    I connect via USB everything works fine.

    Yes, the controller was connected to the console via USB, but now when I try to connect the controller via USB, it doesn't turn on, it doesn't even light up
