    XBox controller performing system tasks instead of gaming


    To not bury the lead, I'm trying to get my xbox elite 2 controller to work with my android for the cloud gaming beta.

    I have the controller paired to my system fine, I've updated the controller previously, and the app itself works fine. My problem is the controller seems more intent with interacting with the phone hardware than the game.

    I'm using a samsung galaxy 10+ and when i hit the b button it seems to work like a back button. When i hit a shoulder button it switches apps. You get the idea. I just want to play games with it!

    I cant find any system controller settings, what do i do?

    :)

    AC Adapter stops charging battery when playing games on windows.

    Go into your Windows power settings and ensure that the laptop is set to its highest performance mode when plugged in. Sometimes, power-saving settings can restrict the amount of power the system uses, which might be causing issues during high-performance tasks like gaming.

    Wireless Controller Disconnecting ONLY when performing certain tasks in game.

    Will try that tonight - thanks. (will swap batteries between controllers first)

    It's not your controller. It's a power draw issue. Some battery brands don't provide sufficient power, or may provide too much. Either way, try switching your battery brand, and if you're using rechargeable batteries, try a different mAh capacity.

    Remote Downloads: Only Download, no Installation?

    Ah ok . Thxs for your feedback.

    Think this should be normal behavior as in instant on the system is not really active, only very reduced task are performed, like downloading and surveillance on Kinect activity for powering up. So to "install" the game to the Xbox one os it needs to be
    powered up fully then.
