    Xbox Elite Series 2 being detected as a Keyboard


    This is infuriating me. It just started happening, my Elite Series 2 controller is being detected suddenly as a Keyboard (the device name is Controller but the icon is of a Keyboard and is in the Mouse, keyboard, & pen tab) in Bluetooth and other devices. I’ve tested every other controller I own, even an Xbox Series X controller, and none of them are being detected as a Keyboard like my Elite Series 2 is. It used to have the icon of a gamepad and was in the Other devices section, but now the icon is of a Keyboard and is located in that section.

    :)

    Lack of Controller care and innovation

    Sorry to hear you are unsatisfied with the current Xbox controllers, however, the question forum is the incorrect place to post your feedback. Unless you are asking about current Xbox controller advancements in-which case that would be the Xbox Elite Controller
    Series 1 and Xbox Elite Controller Series 2. The Xbox Elite Controller Series 2 being the newest on the market and being awarded,
    "Best of E3 2019 - Hardware/Peripheral" - Game Critics Awards.

    Keyboard not working on Xbox

    Are you using the keyboard to turn on the console, or a regular controller?

    My suggestion is to try using a regular Xbox One Controller (any should do, standard, Elite Series 1 or 2) to turn on the console, launch the game, then turn off the controller, and connect the keyboard and mouse after the controller has been turned off,
    you should then be prompted to select an account to use the keyboard and mouse with for the game.

    Does the Xbox controller kéyboard function on (Mobile Android/) Geforce NOW and can the thumbstick(s) be used as a mouse?

    Ohh, I se what you mean. No, you can not connect the keyboard yo your controller :(
    Yes you c n connect a keyboard to the Xbox elite series 2 without problems...

    The question is!... Will it work in Geforce NOW when the Xbox keyboard is attached to the controller.

    (Android)

    Please do NOT respond UNLESS you tested this yousélf! (Geforce NOW is free if you are willing to wait after (and before) each hour of playtime.

    Why wont my keybinds work on the paddles on the elite series 2 controller

    Hi Rick, my name is Oskayra and it is my pleasure to help you.

    There are a few possible reasons why your key combinations are not working on the Elite Series 2 controller paddles.

    1. The key combination mode is disabled.

    By default, key combination mode is disabled on the Elite Series 2 controller. To enable it, follow these steps:

    1) Open the Xbox Accessories application.
    2) Select "Controller & Accessories".
    3) Select your Elite Series 2 controller.
    4) Select "Advanced Settings".
    5) Activate the "Keyboard Mode" option.

    2. The keys you are using are not compatible with the key combination mode.

    Keyboard shortcut mode only supports the function keys, arrow keys, Enter key, Tab key, Delete key, Home key, Pause/Pause key and Escape key. If you try to use other keys, they will not work in key combination mode.

    If your problem persists feel free to contact me and have a nice day.

    Regards Oskayra
