Legchomper Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Hey guys. I understand that this is a PS site, or at least relating to them but I have no idea where else to ask for help. My stepdad has the Xbox One and has had it 2 years, a day ago he encountered a problem. We don't have a second controller to 100% confirm to see but I was hoping one of you might know. Without the charger the xbox controller will not light up, even attempting to sync doesn't do anything. With the charger in and unplugging the console and re-plugging it will light up but doesn't respond, and also when the xbox boots up it goes straight to his home screen instead of displaying his name and such before. I'm trying to fix it for him but everything I find usually involves unplugging the console which has not worked for me. If ANYONE can help me out I'd be grateful.

Super-Fly Spider-Guy Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Had one or two issues with the controller where it won't work. I rip the battery out, plug it in and turn it on with the battery out, then rip out the cord and shove the battery back in. That's fixed it the couple times my controller went wonky, otherwise I'm of no help, encountered no issues myself. Sorry. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowxSakura Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 https://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-one/accessories/wireless-controller-wont-power-on Try some of these steps. I don't use my xbox one enough to have seen that problem, but there's a lot with it when I googled it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never had any problems with the controller. My brother however can only play with a controller plugged in, this is probably due to a lot of wireless interference where he is situated. Try moving the console to a different spot as far away from the current spot as possible or buy a second controller, if you go to a GameStop to get a controller then bring the one you have and see if an employee will let you test it on their kiosk.

Btw I have a xbox one and my controller needs to be plugged in at all times because the battery died. Its not rechargeable like the PS4. Master chief collection isn't available on pc. He's asking for troubleshooting for a controller and telling them just to buy a ps4 isn't helpful 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halo 1 and 2 are only on PC, and I don't think they're even properly compatible with Win10. Stop being unhelpful (and buy new batteries for your Xbox one controller) --- Is there anything else plugged into the xbox one? Or is there a firmware update needed for it?
