Visual issues I believe

But is that even worth the cost? I could likely find another one second hand for $100 or less. And if I go that route, what can I do with this one? It feels shame to just throw it away or recycle it 😓

Hi, I am Mariano, an independent advisor from the Microsoft-Xbox community. I am sorry you are going through this issue, let us try to fix it

Thanks for all the information. From what you said it looks like the issue is not with the HDMI cable or your TV and you already tried clearing the cache without success. Since there is no video output and the console starts heating up in the back the best thing would be to take it to a professional technician. You can also try connecting it to another monitor or TV just in case but based on the symptoms it could be an internal issue.

Green dots appearing are usually a sign of a faulty HDMI connection.

If you reduce the resolution to 720p, less data has to go through the cable, which might cause the cable to "work".

Please try the cable on a different device that displays 1080p, or try a different cable on your console to the TV. Or maybe the cable just jiggled itself out of the plug a little bit.

Just try unplugging and re-plugging the cable, try a different cable and see if that gets rid of the green dots.

Hi there,

to determine what is causing the issue, I would advise to connect the console to a different TV/Monitor (to rule out the TV)

and to try a different HDMI cable (to rule out the HDMI Cable)

Trying these different setups will result you are able to determine what part in the setup is causing the issue.

When you determined what part is causing the issue then you can take steps to solve it. Like setting up a console repair request, replacing the HDMI cable etc.

Let us know the results

Hi,

I was able to do remote debugging using visual studio 2017. This issue of remote debugging failure is seen only in 2015 visual studio.

So I migrated from visual studio 2015 to visual studio 2017, which solved the issue.
