Xbox series x screen dimming stuck

TinaS4 · Jun 19, 2021

When playing a game, the screen is dimming, like it would if i was idle… but i am in the middle of playing a game. Restarting system, playing different game, changing settings, disconnect from power and restart again have not worked to fix the issue. I am playing in the dark. Of course the system updated yesterday, so maybe that is the issue?

I did the whole system wipe and reset and it works so far. Thanks.

Hello there!

Regarding your issue, I suggest that you try a reset to your console in order to refresh the system and even if there are any issues with the latest update it would any corrupted data How to reset your Xbox console to factory defaults | Xbox Support.

Alice,

No I can still see things, they are just dark. Like a dim screen is stuck on it. I’ve tried the reset with saving my stuff. It didn’t work.

Hello,

My xbox one x has an issue with loading games in HDR. When a game or netflix starts up. My screen dims dark. Like it fade away. All colours are dark and not bright.

I have a 4K/HDR tv with a 10 bit panel. And it doenst work.

I tried everything. Switching settings from my tv and xbox, hard reset, different HDMI 2.0 port and cabel. Only HDR in 8 bit mode doenst go dark. But I know my TV has an working 10 bit panel that works with other content beside my xbox one x.

Same here. It looks as if you have screen dim on as a power saving feature. The problem with this bug is that dims the screen as soon as you start and play an hdr game or app.
