    Xbox controller not turning off/connectivity issues


    For some reason my xbox controller will work fine for about 5-10 minutes and then will just instantly stop working but remain on, almost as if it just connected to another device. I've tried using several other controllers but get the same result, all
    the controllers have been updated and no amount of rebooting seems to work. I honestly don't know what to do and am starting to suspect the console itself might be the issue.

    :)

    Controller dies when screen shakes?

    Update: Turns out vibration is turned ON for my system, but the controllers don't vibrate.

    So I guess the issue is really that when any controller is connected to my system, when it's supposed to vibrate, it turns off.

    Can't connect Controller to Xbox One X

    Hi Tarkov510,

    Sorry you're having issues connecting your controllers to your Xbox. Are these known good working controllers? If they're not syncing via wireless, then I would suggest trying to plug them in via USB. They should immediately connect, and stay connected.
    If you're still having issues, then try doing a hard reset. To do this with the console powered on, hold the power button down for about 10 seconds until it turns off. After it's off, turn it back on and try to see if they start connecting.

    Very strange, I held the Xbox button in the middle of the controller and turned off the controller then turn it back on and now I am connected.

    Using the Xbox One S controller for both console and phone.

    hi SnackPack83

    unfortunately you cannot, the controller is set to ''always'' connect to the last synced device.

    you will have to sync your controller every time you want to switch device

    and turning off the controller by pressing and holding the Xbox button until it turn off is the intended way of turning it off without turning the Xbox off (when synced to an Xbox), or when synced to another device other then the Xbox
