    Windows phone won't connect to Xbox live within apps


    Hi,

    Xbox live won't connect to any of my windows phone apps. I am logged in fine within the Xbox games app, but cannot log in at all to any other apps that require Xbox live, including wordament and Microsoft bingo. I have a Lumia 635 running win8. I was wondering
    if anyone had any suggestions?

    Cheers

    Jon

    As far as I know of, the SmartGlass apps will not be available until later this year when Windows 8 and Windows Phone 8 are released. I just checked the apps for both the Xbox and my Windows Phone 7 device but there are not any apps relating to SmartGlass,
    only the Xbox Live Companion app.

    On a side note, the beta access does have an option in the 'Console Settings' to allow for SmartGlass under the 'Connected Devices' section. As of right now, it allowed my Companion app to connect with my mobile and xbox.

    Connection tests fine, no xbox live service

    I have the same issue and I'm also on Comcast. My Xbox One and the Xbox App (PC & Phone) won't connect to Xbox Live. When I disable the WiFi on my phone, the Xbox App connects to Xbox Live without issue. It must be an issue with Comcast.

    The xbox can't connect to my console, no matter what I do.

    Hey there,

    What kind of device are you using for the Xbox app (Windows 10, iOS, Android, Windows Phone)? Is your Xbox One showing up in the Xbox app to connect to, or is your Xbox One console not showing up within the Xbox app at all? We'll need that information so
    we can provide specific steps.

    If you're on Windows 10 PC, have you tried a wired connection for both your Windows 10 PC and your Xbox One console? That is the most reliable method for connecting the Xbox app to your Xbox One console, and the results of that will help us narrow the issue
    down further.

    Post back with that information so we can narrow the issue down! :)
