    New Xbox Issues


    Hi all,

    I bought a 500GB Xb1 when it was released. All set up nicely, red colour and a personalised background of an achievement, images showing correctly, as youd expect.

    Now today i bought a 1TB Xbox One Forza Edition and set it up. However, no images are showing; my avatar image, friends avater images, adverts and what not on the whats on and store tabs. Also unable to change the xbox theme to red, it says 'Sorry, we are
    unable to show colours at the moment' - also there are no thumbnails displaying on any achievements ive unlocked so i cannot set the background image. When i do set an achievement as a background image it doesnt show, and the tiles are not semi-transparrent,
    despite the settings menu showing it should be.

    finally, my pins dont display thumbnails, nor does All4 work when selecting the pin!

    Whats happened, has anyone experienced this before?

    Will -

    :)

    Hello,

    Managed to get the issue fixed as it was still happening with the new Xbox. It seems to have been something with the sound and the hdmi cables I was using. I fixed it by trying to set the display to dvi, which automatically turned off the hdmi sound. At
    first I didn't notice the sound was off for a minute but then persevered for a half hour and the black flicker never happened, so I went and bought an optical cable so I could put the sound straight to my soundbar, rather than hdmi to the TV and then on to
    the soundbar. Used the Xbox a fair bit yesterday and no issues so think that's it.

    Thanks for the suggestions!

    Hey Farty Bumble!

    That's definitely odd. Let's start by clearing the Xbox One system cache by pressing and holding the power button for 10 seconds. After your console powers down, go ahead and boot back up to see if the results change.

    If the issue persists, let's
    Remove your Xbox Profile
    from the console and then sign it back in.

    Try those two solutions out and then let us know how it goes! New Xbox Issues :)

    Hey MatchedHydra483!

    As Keedle pointed out, power cycling does not affect your storage. That method just gives the Xbox One console a fresh boot! If the problems you may be running into persists, please create a new thread so the community can provide support tailored to you!

    Hello,

    Yeah, tried all the hdmi inputs on the TV, different hdmi cables and on another TV. It's only via the Xbox it happens. When I plug sky straight into the TV it works fine. So does Apple TV.

    I'm just going to take it back and get another one as I've only owned it since the 16th and it's been happening since then.

    Thanks for the suggestions though!

    Hi Ando6gsa,

    The screen going blank for a moment or two could be related to a bad connection on your TV or the cable itself. I would try using a different cable, port on your TV, or a different TV entirely to see if the problem persists.
