  1. Xbox One console bricked by following directions from tech support


    Anyone know a way of contacting Microsoft customer service in the US? I followed the directions from tech support and it resulted in a bricked system. Because it was a launch purchase, it is now out of warranty and they want me to shell out another $115
    on top of the $500 I dropped less than 3 years ago. The call center account manager "Michael" was useless. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    :)

    Left analog stick now drifts.

    Its been reported that the April update has caused some controllers to malfunction.

    Reports of drifting, lagging by moving in certain directions and pressing of buttons are among the issues. Newer controllers have been working fine and then essentially bricked by the update.

    Support recommends doing a power cycle and then unplugging the Xbox One from the power for 5 minutes. Afterward powering on the console via the controller.

    I can't run any 360 games on Xbox One X

    Hi disconnect xbox one from the internet then do the following steps

    Turn off your Xbox One Via the power button on the console hold it for 10 seconds.

    Once the indicator lights on the front of the Xbox One and the console's power brick are off, unplug the power brick from the back of your console.

    Wait at least 30 seconds.

    Plug the power brick back into your Xbox One and turn it on

    Connect back internet and try again

    Hope it helps let us know

    Homegrown, I appreciate your complete lack of empathy, you are very helpful ;-).

    Please take note that my question in this forum is directed to Xbox, the company, not users like yourself. I am simply following the direction I was given by their phone support techs.
