Xbox One controller for windows Firmware corrupt !

Hello everyone,

I was updating the firmware on my xbox one controller for windows 10 (newer version), when it was interrupted. now I have a controller with corrupt firmware and no way to re flash it, as the Xbox accessories application used to update the firmware, does
not detect the controller.

I've tried playing around with the drivers, plugging it in USB, withthe adapter, with batteries, without batteries, clean boot windows, updated all drivers etc.

I went to Xbox support, who tried to reinstall drivers with me. When that didn't work, Victor form xbox support sent me over to Windows support, who tried the same thing... and wasn't able to help me either. service was good and fast but didn't seem to understand
my specific problem.

Anyone know of a way to Flash the xbox controller with the most recent firmware without the use of Xbox Accessories App?

Thanks!

:)

My control xbox one not connected to the computer

Please, get the App "Xbox Accessories" from Windows Store, and try again. It will try to update your Windows 10 drivers or Xbox One controller firmware.

If that does not work, try to update Xbox One controller firmware through your Xbox One console with a USB data cable.

You can find more information here:
support.xbox.com/.../update-controller-for-stereo-headset-adapter

 

Exactly the same probleme here. Give to us a flash for the controller Microsoft.

 

I got the same problem and made a post about it a couple of days ago. Unfortunately I didn't get any feedback so far...

 

I got the same problem. i couldn't connect any xbox apps, or games

but i think drivers are fine

 

My xbox one controller was working fine until I downloaded the Xbox Accessories App. Now it doesn't work. Any help will be appreciated

 

I am having the same problem, if u get any solution pls share.

 

the only way to fix this is to connect your controller to an xbox console or rollback the OS to a build prior to the anniversary update. The issue is caused by they anniversary update which causes the xbox accessories app to corrupt the controller firmware.
Spent hours back n forth with microsoft chat support who were absolutely useless, if like me you udont own a console, find one at a local retailer or friend etc, as soon as you connect the controller to console it will automatically update and work fine from
there

 

Exact same issue. Plugged in my controller for the first time and it worked great. Decided to download Xbox Accessories because it was suggested by Microsoft for updating drivers and after installing the latest driver it's not working. My computer recognises
its existence (it shows up as 'controller' on devices) but it either doesn't work completely, or only registers a couple of buttons (no analog sticks, no triggers).

I don't have access to an xbox to try Phillybays' suggestion and have tried so many different ways to rollback/uninstall the drivers but that doesn't seem to work.

Drivers need to be fixed, simple as that. And it's really frustrating that there is no possible work around other than that or installing drivers with an xbox one.

 

I have the same exact issue. Went through the update process in the xbox accessory app which failed before the end. Now when I plug the controller into Windows it shows up in device manager but doesn't work at all. Can't even attempt the update process again
since the xbox accessory app tells me that there's no controller connected. I spent an hour online with xbox support and the best option they gave me was take it to a friend's place who has an xbox one console. This is not a viable solution. I purchased this
less then half a year ago and it's already not supported according to them even though it was working perfectly before running the update microsoft suggested themselves.

 

I had no problem with the Xbox Accessory App, I followed all steps and got it to work perfectly (for both Bluetooth and USB). Then it just, I don't know, stopped working for Bluetooth?

The controller appears in "Bluetooth" devices when I press the Bind button, I can begin pairing it, it connects about 5%, but then the controller just keeps blinking and I get a message on the Computer (in the "Bluetooth" settings) akin to "Driver Error" or
"Driver Malfunction" (It's in Swedish, so I don't know if that's the exact translation).

Also, every time I'm connecting with Bluetooth, a driver installation begins (for some reason, it didn't do that before).

Anyways, I've found one thing that might be a bit of a breakthrough(?) that might help Microsoft Support, and might help others with similar problem.

I checked my Device Manager to see what appeared when I started the controller with Bluetooth:

1) Under "Bluetooth: Xbox Wireless Controller"

2) Under "HID (Human Interface Devices): Bluetooth XINPUT compatible input device"

Just to compare, with USB, these two appear:

1) "HID (Human Interface Devices): XINPUT compatible HID device"

2) "Xbox Peripherals: Xbox Controller"

Now, the 2nd has a yellow triangle with an exclamation mark in it, and I know that's usually not good. Checking the properties of the HID entry I see these:

"This device can not start. (Code 10)"

and

"{Incorrect address range}"

And I'm thinking "This has to be the bad guy! Now... how do I solve it?". I mean, it wasn't in the incorrect address range when it was working, so what changed?

I've hit a wall over at Google, maybe you've got an answer, Microsoft?

 

I have the same problem with a controller I bought yesterday. The problem is that we have "a standard controller", the app "xbox accessories" is made for "elite controller". This means the app has updated the firmware on wrong version of our controller wich
is not usable anymore.

Good job microsoft.

 

My brand new out of the box Xbone S controller shows as "Unknown" in my BT list.

 

Hey guys I am german and thought i would report my problems to the support so i started writing down my problem:

<german>

Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren,

leider habe ich ein Problem mit dem Xbox One Wireless Controller + Adapter für Windows. Als ich ihn vor etwa 1 Monat gekauft habe und er ankam hat er mühelos etwa 3-4 Wochen funktioniert. Doch auf einmal wurde er nicht mehr erkannt. Ich habe folgende Versuche
mit verschiedenen USB-Ports meines Rechners und 3 verschiedenen USB to MicroUSB Kabeln getestet.

Bisherige Lösungsversuche von mir

Stromversorgung Controller?

Wenn ich den Controller über den X-Box Knopf in der Mitte anmachen möchte blinkt er 2 mal langsam auf und erlischt wieder. Auch wenn ich neue Batterien einbaue genau das Selbe. Wenn ich den Controller über ein Micro-USB Kabel mit Strom versorge ( aus Steckdose)
" geschieht erstmal nichts ". Wenn ich ihn dann über die Mittel-Xbox-Taste anmache blinkt er öfter, anstatt nur 2 mal ( selbe Geschwindigkeit für etwa 15 Sekunden und erlischt dann wieder).

Wenn ich den Controller über ein USB-MicroUSB Kabel an den Rechner anschließe, leuchtet er nach einigen Sekunden auf und dann ununterbrochen. Jedoch obwohl der Controller über Kabel an den Rechner angeschlossen ist erkennt die Xbox-ZubehörApp keinen Controller.
Unter Windows -> Geräte wird der Controller jedoch aufgelistet. Wenn ich unter Windows-Geräte den Controller deinstalliere und neu einstecke, lädt der Controller auch einen Treiber auf den Rechner - wovon die XboxZubehör App immernoch unbeeindruckt ist.

Der Adapter ?

Es scheint nicht, als dass der Adapter eine Verbinung zum Controller aufbauen kann. Ich bin auf dem neusten Stand der Windows - Updates. Ich habe folgendes sowohl mit dem Adapter direkt im USB-Slot, als auch über mitgelieferte Kabel-Erweiterung probiert.

Während der Adapter am Pc angeschlossen ist leuchtet die kleine weiße LED gar nicht von allein. Wenn ich die Taste am Adapter 1 mal drücke passiert auch nichts. Wenn ich sie gedrückt halte, blinkt sie für etwa 15 Sekunden (vgl. Oben) in ruhiger Geschwindigkeit.

Ich dachte erst es ist ein Treiberproblem, jedoch wird der Treiber des Adapters im Gerätemanger aufgelistet. Ebenso wird der Adapter unter Windoes -> Geräte auch aufgeführt. Ich habe es auch schon versucht den Treiber im Gerätemanager zu deinstallieren, den
Rechner neu hoch zu fahren und den Adapter erneut ein zu stecken. Dieser installiert auch wieder den Treiber. Dennoch stellt der Adapter keine Verbindung zum Controller her.


Paring Versuche?

Ich habe das Paring in jeder erdenklichen Kombination versucht.

Adapter in PC + Controller an Stromversorgung aus Steckdose

Adapter in PC + Controller über Kabel an Rechner

Adapter in PC + Controller in Hand -> 2 mal blinken und aus

(Auch hier Adapter mal direkt in USB-Slot, mal über beigelieferte Verlängerung)

Ich bin ratlos. Ich probiere seit 3 Tagen das Problem selbst in den Griff zu bekommen und erziele keine Erfolge. Was soll ich nun tun ? Das ganze verwirrt mich noch mehr, da der Controller am Anfang direkt funktioniert hatte und ich seit dem keine mir bewussten
Änderungen im System vorgenommen habe, die das ganze auch nur im entferntesten beeinflussen könnten. Ebenso keine Gewalteinwirkung auf Controller oder Adapter. Ich bitte um Hilfe! Vielen Dank.

Meine Daten des Rechners sind im Anhang.
