Xbox one keeps showing “applying update” every time I reset or turn on console, unable to...

Hi Blaywulf,

Thanks for letting us know you were able to get it working. I will go ahead and lock the thread as it has been resolved.

This worked! Thank you. It didnt work with the buttons on the console but was able to do so from the menu itself. I got worried at first cauae upon reboot it showed the update screen again, except this time it seemed to break it from its loop

Hey there Blaywulf thanks for taking the time to bring this issue to us.

We apologize for the inconvenience this has caused but rest assured we are here to help, we have seen this in the past
and since the issue could be on the actual OS of the console so we would suggest a >Soft
Factory Reset<
(while keeping games and apps)
IF AND ONLY IF THE FOLLOWING CRITERIA IS MET:

• There is a stable network connection.
  
• The information for all profiles is known (email and passwords)
  

If the dashboard cannot be accessed.

1. Unplug the network cable if you're using a wired network connection.
   
2. Power off your console, and then unplug the power cord to ensure that the console is completely powered off.
   
3. Wait 30 seconds.
   
4. Plug the power cord back in.
   
5. Continue holding the
   BINDand
   EJECTbuttons for 10-15 seconds.
   
6. Listen for two “power-up” tones a couple of seconds apart.
   
7. You can release the
   BINDand
   EJECTbuttons after the second power-up tone.
   

1. When the troubleshooting screen comes up select Reset this console
   

NoteIf you don't hear two power-up tones after 15 seconds, it means this failed. Likewise,
if you hear any “power-down” chirps, that also means this failed.

Thanks for the replies! I havent had a chance to try out any of these yet since i had to leave for a while. However, ill update once i do!

G'day,

Have you power cycled your router (gateway) and waited till it's fully operational before turning your console back on?

I had the same thing a couple of updates back and discovered that after the restart of the console to apply update, the router had lost it's connection.

It wasn't until I reconnected properly that the update would continue to install.

Let us know how you go
