  1. Xbox One Controller Not Connecting


    Hey y’all, I’ve been scouring the web for answers for this but haven’t gotten any success.

    So it’s been a long time since I’ve played on my Xbox but when I went to try to connect my one (and only) controller, the Xbox has to have an update before I can use it and my controller doesn’t even attempt to connect.

    I can (sometimes) turn on my Xbox with it, but 9/10 times my Xbox doesn’t wake. The controller is fully charged with brand new batteries, it will do a long slow flash indicating it’s on, but when I use the connect button it does not do the matching fast flashing the Xbox does when I press it’s connect button.

    I only have the one controller so I can’t get out of the “must update” screen. I do have a pc if that would help me solve my problem.

    So to reiterate, steps to resolve issue are as follows;

    Replaced batteries in controller

    Turned on controller and console

    Console requires update and cannot bypass due to no working controller

    Controller turns on and off but does not attempt connection to console

    Turned console off and on again several times

    Attempted connection via wired usb - failed to connect but controller rumbled, detecting connection

    Thanks!

    :)

    Does the Xbox One S console have Bluetooth Capability? I.E Bluetooth Headsets

    There is no Bluetooth radio component in the Xbox One S console itself.

    The controllers connect to the Xbox One S the same way the controllers connect to the original Xbox One: proprietary RF. You could technically connect an Xbox One S controller to an original Xbox One, and an original Xbox controller to the Xbox One S.

    The Bluetooth functionality in the new Xbox One S controller is specifically made for connecting the controller to a Windows 10 PC with the "Anniversary" update, which has the drivers needed for the controller when connected via Bluetooth.

    xbox one controller for pc, adapter or bluetooth?

    Hey GiddyCosine4817!

    As Geth mentioned, Bluetooth connection to a Windows 10 device will work just fine for Xbox One controllers, depending on the model of the controller. Certain older Xbox One controllers do not support Bluetooth connections.
