  1. Xbox drift issue


    I’m having a drift issue with my console. Whenever I’m in a game I have no issues at all. Once I go to my home page or pull up my hub, it drifts very fast to the right. I’ve tried multiple controllers, I’ve tried a hard reset and power cycle, I’m not too sure what else I could do to fix this issue.

    :)

    Xbox One Controller, left stick faulting!!!

    I have two controllers BOTH with drift issues. The one left thumb-stick drifts upwards and the other one has a right thumb-stick drift issue that drifts upward.

    Like what the heck am I suppose to do. #SMH

    Xbox drift issue

    Hi there!

    Since it happens to multiple controllers, the issue must be with your console system.

    Are you able to navigate through the settings? Try to factory reset it. You may connect your controller using a USB cable instead.

    Press the Xbox button to open the guide.
    Select Profile & system > Settings > System > Console info.
    Select Reset console.
    On the Reset your console? Please choose “Reset and keep my games & apps”

    If it's not possible, let's do it manually.

    Check to see if you can bring up the Xbox Startup Troubleshooter:

    1. Power off your console, and then unplug the mains lead to ensure that the console is completely powered off.
    2. Wait 30 seconds, and then plug the mains lead back in.
    3. Press and hold the Pair button and the Eject button on the console, and then press the Xbox button on the console.

    Note The Xbox Series S and the Xbox One S All-Digital Edition do not have Eject buttons. You can bring up the Xbox Startup Troubleshooter on this console by holding only the Pair button (steps 3 and 4) and then pressing the Xbox button.

    4. Continue holding the Pair and Eject buttons for 10-15 seconds.
    5. Listen for two “power-up” tones a couple of seconds apart. You can release the Pair and Eject buttons after the second power-up tone.
    6. The console should power up and take you directly to the Xbox Start-up Trouble-shooter.

    There's an option to reset your Xbox.

    Controller left stick off-center

    If the controller has a drifting issue then you will have to wait for the replacement. There really is no fix for drifting issues that I know of.

    Xbox Series X System Clock Time Drift Causes Games to Run 5% Slower

    Exact same issue, two Xbox Series X units. One with time drift issues of 2 min over 6 hours but this will cause apps to be unable to launch until a system reboot. That being said if you are in a long play session the app you are currently in will still work without issue.



    Xbox should be aware of the time drift issue.
