I've also noticed that even the usb is inconsistent and every cord I've used needs to be held at a certain angle to make the controller work. I've already updated the controller's firmware, tried multiple different fresh sets of batteries, and I've already run a power cycle on it twice. I'm posting in here to ask if there's anything else I can try before giving up and replacing the controller. I've only had it for a year and a half or so and I was hoping to get more life out of it.
