    Trying to set up new Xbox X and nothing is working


    I bought a new Xbox for my sons this Christmas.

    I plugged in power and xdma cable and started up.

    Followed instructions to downloaded App and put in code

    app froze at point after it said device (i.e. phone to device) connected

    Tried again same thing

    Found online better to directly connect wired rather than wifi - so connected cable

    Tried again same thing.

    Tried without app - with the controller. And got update error.

    Xbox 360 not updating, error occurs while updating.

    This exact same thing is happening with the Xbox One X. Update not working, throwing up error codes, nothing happens if you reformat to factory settings.
