    Xbox Series X double starts

    Hi,

    I have an xbox series x. When turning the xbox on with a controller the system will turn on then immediately turn off and start again.
    Does this happen if you use the console on/off button?

    Is the console OS and the controller firmware up to date?

    Xbox Wireless Headset keeps breaking up/disconnecting from Series X

    I'm having the same issue. It's also unpairing my controller. I thought it was the controller, then realized I never had this issue before I got the wireless headset.

    We also have 3 Xboxes ok the same floor. I have a Series X, my son has a Series S, and my daughter has an Xbox One Series X. They're all within 20ish feet of each other on the 2nd floor of our house. They have the wired headset and don't have any issues.

    I realized I [usually] have my wireless headset paired to my cellphone at the same time. After pairing it with my phone once, it'll connect every time. I'm going to try turning off the Bluetooth on my phone to see if it helps.

    It's been incredibly frustrating as it'll often unpair the controller in the middle of a match and/or stop playing sound.

    I have a problem with my xbox

    When it does that unpaired thing. The controller slowely flashes and the consoles pairer basically turns off so it doesn't recognise any nearby controllers

    Cannot Sync Xbox 360 Controllers

    They are all different brands of wireless controllers. Microsoft to Amazon. NONE will connect. Yes the steps are followed perfectly and variants of the steps.

    Press the ON X button. Flashes in a circle. Press the Xbox Connect. It too flashes. Press the small controller sync. Flashes slow down. After less than 1 minute the Xbox stops flashing. Then the controller stops flashing.

    Only the one controller that came with it used connects. No other will. Even when I unpair, turn off, and reset the xbox. It will see NO controllers except the when I turn on the one it likes. One and that is it.

    These other controllers have NO issues with my PC or Xbox 1. Just the 360.
