Xbox series x fails to fall asleep and controller issue.

Martiniman006 · Nov 14, 2020

My Xbox Series X has been working great, but occasionally when i hold the button down to power off and select turn off console it will sometime fail to power down. Once it does this i am unable to connect my controllers to it and the only fix action is to
power cycle thw console by unplugging the power cord. Not sure if this is a fail-safe to allow the system to hit a temp below a certain range so it can safely power off. But from what i have experienced very likely a firmware update could fix this issue.

Hello, Lilsleepy5939. I'm Arturo, and I'll be glad to provide assistance with your inquiry today.

I take this opportunity to let you know that at the moment, by default, every Xbox controller turns off after 15 minutes of inactivity.
Unfortunately, Microsoft didn't release or announce a feature that may allow us to change this setting.

I know this is not the kind of answer you were expecting, but your kindness and understanding are appreciated.

Regards,

Arturo.
