The axis appears to be clamped, I put some force on both sides but it won’t give, afraid I might damage the controller.

Xbox: mijn xbox wil niet starten. wat moet ik doen?

Tue, 24 Jul 2018 10:08:30 -0700

een jaar geleden heb ik een originele xbox gekocht. hij deed het perfect zonder problemen. maar vandaag (nadat ik hem 2 weken geleden nog gebruikt heb) wou hij niet meer starten. ikzelf heb het idee dat het komt vanwege dat de startkabel gevouwen heeft gelegen. maar zijn er nog andere oorzaken?

alvast met vele dank ,

Xbox: mijn xbox start niet op. wat moet ik doen?

Tue, 24 Jul 2018 10:11:49 -0700

a year ago I bought an original xbox. he did it perfectly without problems. but today (after I used it 2 weeks ago) he did not want to start anymore. I have the idea that it is because the starter cable has been folded. but are there other causes?

can you send the password to my email address?

with many thanks, Thiemo Heijnen

Xbox One: Why won't my console sync button work?

Sat, 05 Sep 2026 10:54:06 -0700

Over time my sync button on the left side if my console worked but now it's gone. When I press the button on the left side it makes a ding noise but the console symbol suppose to blink indicates in trying to sync. My controllers work when I press it but not the console button. I have to play with my controllers wired but I really need help with this to have it fixed. I tried hard reset and everything so I assume its an issue inside the console.

Razer Wolverine V3 Pro: Why does my wireless dongle say "device descriptor request failed"

Wed, 02 Sep 2026 09:01:26 -0700

When trying to connect my controller via the included dongle, instead of the controller connecting normally, the dongle in the device manager program is described as "unknown USB device(device descriptor request failed)". I've uninstalled synapse completely via Revo plus all other razer programs, then reinstalled the wolverine controller software and the dongle pairing utility with no luck. I've tried various other things too like unistalling the device, ect but nothing works. Controller functions still when used with wired connection but the dongle i cannot get to be recognized properly by my pc. I'm taking suggestions on how to either fix it or where to get a replacement dongle that can work with it.

Xbox One Elite Wireless Controller Series 2: Xbox Series X Gulikit TMR Joystick compatibility with Elite controller

Fri, 28 Aug 2026 17:24:53 -0700

This question is regarding the warning about compatibility of the Gulikit TMR Joystick with the Xbox Elite series controllers. There is a warning stating "Not recommended for Xbox Elite or Xbox One controllers due to unavailable software for joystick calibration." This doesn't make any sense because the Elite controllers actually use the Xbox Accessories app that has built in joystick calibration software. The very same software I see being used to calibrate the joysticks for the regular Xbox non-Elite version controllers.

I'm assuming the actual issue of compatibility is the different style of stem that has a thread to screw the Elite series thumbstick cover on. If that is the case, then my second question is if it is possible to replace the stem of the Gulikit thumbstick with the stems from Elite thumbsticks or not? I would really like to be able to replace the thumbsticks with TMR type if possible. The product page states that lack of calibration software is the issue, but I believe that is incorrect and the real problem is the stem difference. I would appreciate any feedback from anyone that has attempted this or knows enough about the TMR joysticks to know if they can be modified to fit the Elite 2. Thanks.

Xbox Series X: Xbox series X doesn't play games bigger than 66.32 GB from current gen

Fri, 28 Aug 2026 15:15:44 -0700

my Xbox has crashing issues with games bigger than 66 GB from this current gen and some last gen games for example watch dogs 2 starts to load then crashes and Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus loads up for a second but then crashes in game when trying to move. For the few current gen games I wanna play like cyberpunk my Xbox just straight up crashes when trying to customize V. Certain gacha games like genshin impact and ZZZ also crash to the dashboard and sometimes shut the entire console down. At this point idk what to do

Xbox 360: Where can I find a replacement spring, for usb port cover?

Fri, 28 Aug 2026 01:10:47 -0700

I left my MP3 player plugged into the usb port for too long. This resulted in my door loosing it's "spring" and would not return to the closed position. I have finally taking the time to look at what happened and I don't have the original spring anymore.

I need to know if i can simply go to any hardwear store and request a spring of that sizing, or is it something I need to find online(unfortunatly I did not see it on ifixit.com). If it is possible, I would be willing to make my own, but just don't know which material(s) would work best.

Thanks for your time :)

Xbox Series X: Series X no controller. Not wireless, Not wired.

Fri, 28 Aug 2026 01:00:23 -0700

One day I woke up and my controller would not connect. I spent hours trying to get it to connect. At one point, after I slapped it, the pairing button on the console did work, but then it stopped again.

Now the pairing button does nothing. Using the Xbox app to go into settings and try pairing it doesn't work either. When I use a USB-C cable that works fine with my PC and controller, nothing happens. I took the Xbox apart and reseated the accessory board. When I pressed the pairing button, it flashed for a second and then stopped.

Between when it first broke and now, the Xbox sat unplugged for a few weeks. I tried updating both the Xbox and the controller, but that didn't help. The controller, as well as two others I tried, work perfectly fine with my PC over the same cable.

I also tried unplugging everything external just to test it: no fan, no disc drive, no front-panel USB, and no accessory module. Still nothing. There is no change in behavior. It won't sync over a cable or wirelessly.

When I plug the controller in, it vibrates once. If I press the Xbox button, it turns on but just keeps flashing as if it's searching for something to connect to.

Does anybody have any idea what could be causing this? $800 for a new one is a rip-off, and I really don't want to buy a used one filled with weed smoke for $400 on eBay when I bought this one new for $500 a few years ago.
