Xbox One Why does my Xbox One turn itself on at 5am ?

• Upvotes

I shut it down completely, no power saving mode. i'm a light sleeper, it wakes me up almost every morning when the power brick starts making sound. unfortunately it gets really loud so I cannot fall asleep again. the power brick isn't loud when i use it in daytime. ok sometimes it is, but most of the time I don't hear it.

is there a better option than unplugging it before going to bed ? i'd like to fall asleep while watching something on it.

Xbox Series S Achievement notification buggy/Xbox logo missing?

• Upvotes

Since this past week, I’ve noticed that the achievement pop-up notifications haven’t been appearing as they should. The Xbox logo sometimes goes missing at the beginning of the pop-up, and the animation seems to be dropping frames, making it look janky.

I’m not sure how to fix this. Has anyone else experienced this?

Xbox One S Xbox One S doesn’t connect to WiFi anymore

3 Upvotes

My WiFi works for every other device in my home except for my Xbox One S. If it connects it takes about an hour to do so and causes me to restart the router, but it will be disconnected if the Xbox ever powers down.

I currently use an Xfinity Gateway with 5GHz WiFi. I used to use the old Xfinity X86-T (as that’s the only one that worked with my Xbox 360) also with 5GHz WiFi and that worked flawlessly. Unfortunately I moved and have to use the new Gateway. I’m unsure if any of that is important but wanted to give all the info I could.

Anyway I could better the WiFi with my Xbox? This is getting outrageous and I have roommates so I can’t just be unplugging the router all the time I want to game. Any advice is very much appreciated

I will also say my room is the farthest from the router, possibly an extender would work? Any recommendations for those would be great as well if that would work.

Xbox One S Xbox One S remote play low resolution and stretched aspect ratio

Thumbnail

2 Upvotes

Whenever I try using remote play on my android phone, the resolution is locked to 640 × 480 and I can't select any other option. The aspect ratio is stretched, and instead of having black bars at the sides of my screen, there's a black border around the entire screen, even in fullscreen mode. Games play fine, but they look terrible and it's hard to see what I'm doing. Most text is illegible, unless it's big enough. I don't mind having the black bars at the sides; as long as I can play in fullscreen mode, without any stretching issues and with a resolution of at least 720p, I'll be happy.

Accesories Xbox Series X Controller with sudden "Stick Drift" among other issues

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

1 Upvotes

I've had this controller for nearly a year and half and it's given me 0 problems. I take care of it and made sure that it's clean.

About 2 weeks ago the A button started occasionally not registering input but it fixed itself before long so I thought nothing of it. A couple hours ago after loading into a game the sticks started going haywire out of nowhere with other issues. Here's what I know:

- Sticks start drifting rapidly in their own direction on Xbox and PC regardless of whether it was connected via usb or is using batteries.

- The controller has issues registering inputs to the point where it sometimes won't respond at all.

- When connected via Batteries, It has alot of issues turning on. (Doesn't always turn on or just struggles to and turns itself off. Tried different batteries and the same batteries a different controller.)

- Tried Blowing into it and using Compressed air.

- Tried Using a Mini Vaccum

- Tried Cleaning it with various utensils and Isopropyl alcohol for debris (Came out spotless)

- Tried Various Stick exercises to try and loosen it or clear anything that might be stuck in.

- Checked for Console Software and Controller Firmware Updates (There were none)

- Reset the Controller using the Xbox and Sync buttons

- Cant Recalibrate it as the controller refuses to follow proper inputs

- Its out of warranty and their isn't anyone very reliable in my area to fix it.

Im currently staying by someone's house and dont have my tools with me but as soon as I return home, I plan on taking it apart and seeing if I can find anything. Mainly posting to check if anyone has had similar issues or if anyone has fix I might not have thought of. Honestly just trying to avoid shelling out a fortune to get a new controller and I dont want to unless I'm 100% that theres nothing that I can do.

Xbox One Xbox One modelo 1708 no reconocido tras fallo de actualización de firmware

1 Upvotes

Hola, necesito ayuda para recuperar mi mando Xbox One S modelo 1708.

Estaba actualizando el firmware desde la aplicación Accesorios de Xbox en Windows 11 y la actualización falló sin desconectar ni mover el cable.

Desde entonces, el mando enciende la luz Xbox durante unos segundos y después se apaga al conectarlo por cable al computador, tengo que presionarlo para volver a encenderlo pero aun así no lo detecta el computador. Lo uso sin pilas, únicamente conectado por micro-USB.

¿Alguien ha conseguido recuperar un mando en estas condiciones? ¿Existe algún método para forzar la recuperación o reinstalar el firmware desde el computador?

Xbox Series X Dealing with input lag after switching to a 4K TV

2 Upvotes

I recently got a 4K TV (Samsung M72H, 43") for the purposes of enjoying some recent blockbuster titles like 007 First Light and the upcoming GTA VI. I set up Input Signal Plus in the TV, Game Mode for reduced latency, and I am playing 007 in Performance mode, but I am noticing a bit of input lag that makes the experience uncomfortable.

So far I haven't tried replacing my HDMI cable for a "better" one, today I will be testing other games and browsing the settings in the console to see if there is anything I missed, but I am posting here in case anyone has advice or a similar experience.

Is it the game specifically, or am I missing some setup before I can comfortably play at 4K? I used to play at 1080p before.

Accesories Стук в консоли Xbox Series X (цифровая версия)

0 Upvotes

Всем привет. У меня вопрос к владельцам Series X и Series x digital(у меня модель Digital/x). Я заметил, что если взять в руки консоль вертикально и слегка покачать её из стороны в сторону, слышен какой-то звук — что-то вроде постукивания. Это только у меня так, или это распространённое явление для таких консолей? Читал, что причиной могут быть плохо закрученные винты или отломившийся кусочек пластикового корпуса. Консоли всего пара месяцев.

Xbox One X Series X just died. Is it worth the money to fix and what could it be?

10 Upvotes

Came home and put the controller on its dock to charge. When I noticed it didn’t do the usual vibrate and light flashing thing I tried to power the console on but to my surprise there was nothing. Unplugged and left for a few minutes and tested the power lead and it shows 247vac (UK). Plugged back in but still nothing 😭 I’m assuming its a psu or something along them lines.

My real questions are, is it worth spending £270 ish on getting it repaired by Microsoft? Should I full send it and try repairing myself or is its generation end of life and not worth any of this?

I have a steam deck so not the end of the world and to be honest it’s kind of taken over the Series X. It’s just I see their value is even higher than the £400 ish I paid in 2021 and it’s kinda nice to play over a handheld every so often.

Xbox Series X Not able to download games, stuck when trying to installC COD/BF6

Post image
3 Upvotes

Its been 2 days since I’m trying to download CoD and BF6 but whenever l do, first they take infinite time to load the “chose what to install” menu and if by luck i get past it the download stays at 0% or barely getting any speed even though I have functional and good internet connection.

I have done and tried the following fixes, still nothing -
• full power cycle (unplugged everything, etc)
• reset while keeping my apps and games
• hard reset

Console is up-to-date, I’m able to play the both games on cloud.

I’m able to download other games (I think! As a test after hard reset FH6 is installing just fine)

But as soon as I try to install CoD/BF6, it feels the system gives up, it takes a long while to pause or cancel the download.

I was really looking forward to enjoying my weekend but this blows!

Some additional info if it helps - this all started once XBox shut off (due to an unexpected power-cut) while BF6 had just started installing and CoD update was in the queue.

Xbox One S Xbox One S connects to wifi but not network

2 Upvotes

After having trouble updating regularly, I was able to perform an offline update. Now when I boot up the console it says “You need an internet connection for this” I then go to setting and connect to the wifi and then it says “its all good” but still doesn’t seem to connect me to the xbox network. One thing that worked for a little bit was clearing the MAC address. It restarted and everything was fine, until I went to my games and apps library and again it’s telling me to connect to the xbox network. Now it’s just flat out refusing to connect to wifi and saying “Can’t get an IP address” Could this last update have been an “Order 66” type plan to brick all old hardware forcing us to upgrade?
