    Xbox Controller Issue - Same as everyone else - Can't Type without Cursor jumping and...


    I'm having the exact same issue as everyone else with my Xbox controller. At the home screen, the controller jumps all over the place. I have to try and trick the controller to type something. When I press over using the D-pad, the cursor either moves multiple times in that direction or if I am in a keyboard dialogue screen trying to type in someone's gamer tag it will jump to the top left once *after I have typed the first letter. This happens when trying to use the joy sticks as well. It's totally unbelievable.

    Additionally, my right joystick constantly looks up once in a game. I have to constantly look down while playing. This has been going on for for several weeks. Now the left joystick is moving my character forward slowly but constantly.

    Whoever the moderator is, please do not lock the thread once you tell me to go purchase another controller! The controller is just out of warranty and I want to see if anyone has actually found a fix or if this is the just the cheap chinese controller problem. There is no reason why a controller can't handle 5 hours of gameplay a week for 5 months other than there is a software issue or they are junk. My old Xbox , the controllers are still working and I played that thing much more than 5 hours a week.

    Xbox Controller Issue - Same as everyone else - Can't Type without Cursor jumping and Joysticks looking up and moving forward

    Hello, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

    My name is welcome to the community.

    Hello Rkellah, i'm sorry about what's going on with your control, in your description you said "just the cheap Chinese controller problem", are you talking about an original Xbox controller or other compatible controls?

    In those cases if you've tried all upgrade procedures whether on Xbox or control, and it's out of warranty, ideally you'd send your controller to some reliable gamer technical assistance.

    Georges,

    Sorry for the delayed response. The controller is the original Xbox controller that came with the console. Can you point me to some directions on "upgrade procedures" and I will verify that I have completed all of those?

    Lastly, I want to point out that when I first turn on my Xbox and I am asked to sign in to my profile, I have absolutely no issues at the password screen with the controller. The controller works just fine and I can type in my password without fighting the d-pad or the joystick. However, once I leave the password screen and go to the home screen or to a game I start having issues.

    An example: This weekend I was trying to invite a friend to a fortnite party to play. I was in fortnite and the dialogue box popped up for me to type their gamer tag in. The controller let me pick the first letter of their name without issue. Once I had a letter chosen, the autofill words came up above the keyboard and the selection box constantly jumped back to an autofill word. I press the d-pad or the joy stick in any direction towards a letter on the keyboard and the selection box jumps back to the autofill words. You literally cannot even type a name in...

    All of this leads me to believe that this is not a controller issue but rather a software issue as @MG XIII says below.

    This is not a controller issue, many people have it. I have reported through the console app but no response.
