Xbox one X no video - is it possible to update the firmware with USB?

Hello, Barry M. I'm Arturo, and I'll be glad to provide assistance with your inquiry today.

I'm sorry to hear that your Xbox is not displaying video.

Not only that, but I'm afraid to say that it is not possible to perform an offline update without a video signal, because you need to go through multiple screens after selecting a specific option. So it would be something like trial and error.

Based on the information you provided, it's likely to be a hardware issue or partially faulty HDMI port. It is better to get your console inspected with a trusted technician if none of the usual troubleshooting steps from the user side worked.

I know this is not the kind of answer you were expecting, but thanks for reading me and for your understanding.

Regards,

Arturo.

For the random disconnects (and possibly the battery usage) make sure you've got the latest firmware in your controller. Connect the controller with a USB cable to be sure you won't have a disconnect during the update process.

Instructions on updating controller firmware can be found on Xbox Support

That's really odd.
What about using a different USB cable? In case it's the one causing the issue?

And did you check if your controller needs a firmware update? (If possible use a different PC or Xbox to this purpose)

This can be caused by a variety of factors, including a problem with the controller's connection, an issue with the Xbox One X's wireless receiver, or a problem with the controller's firmware.

Here are a few things you can try to fix the problem:

1. Move your Xbox One X closer to your controller to ensure a stronger connection.
   
2. Try resetting your controller by holding down the Xbox button and the sync button simultaneously for a few seconds.
   
3. Try to update the controller's firmware by connecting it to your Xbox One X via USB cable, and check for any available updates.
   
4. Try to reset your Xbox One X to its factory settings.
   
5. Try to use a different USB cable and USB port to charge your controller, it may be an issue with the cable.
   
6. If none of these solutions work, it may be necessary to contact Microsoft support for further assistance or bring it to a professional for repair.
   

It's important to note that disconnecting controller issue may be caused by a hardware malfunction, which would require professional repair or replacement of the device.

If this was only possible without USB or external drive , but they should already have put this inside a update for the one X but no they only put this in the ONE S update
