    Xbox elite controller (still) wont turn on


    Why do we have to become controller technicians, combing the internet for threads and videos on how to basically rebuild the controller?

    The controller has issues, mine stopped working 22 days after the exchange policy. Such a brutal thing to encounter after using it only a handful of times, buying all these accessories and now can't use any of it. Just sitting here wondering what to do... throw it in the garbage and not play anything? Well I just bought a 2 year game pass so what an incredible waste of time energy money hassle my life and everyone else's regarding this matter, just to have a controller that works for more than a few months.

    Xbox One won't come out of sleep mode using wireless controller

    Im actually still having this issue on my xbox elite. After a period in idle (usually 24hrs) my controller and xbox IR remote wont turn on the console. I have to turn it on at the console. Once turned on my remote and controller may work in menus and other
    times it wont at all. Only a powercycle fixes it. Any ideas?

    Wireless issue

    So I needed up hard wiring my xbox to my internet box. One of my old controllers I got to connect but my headset or my elite controller still wont connect and if I try to connect to wifi it wont. I have tried the hold the power button down for 10 seconds
    and still nothing. The xbox I have is the halo 5 collector's edition.
