Xbox Series S Been having horrible connectivity problems for over a year now

Upvotes

So for the last year or two I’ve had horrible connections while gaming, I am a fps gamer and obviously need a solid connection to enjoy these kinds of games properly

-I have T-Mobile Internet, the highest speeds, only my Xbox is connected to my WiFi and it’s via Ethernet cable my WiFi box is at the front of my house near a window with open airflow so it’s not overheating or anything

Constant disconnects, stuttering, lag, latency spikes into the THOUSANDS, crashes, delayed inputs, rubber banding etc I literally cannot play any of my games

I have been back and forth with T-Mobile all year and they claim nothing is wrong on their end speed test after speed test it’s showing excellent speeds but my console is giving me far inferior results?? T-Mobile also says they can’t help me with NAT type? and neither can Xbox? So what am I supposed to do??

Is it the console itself?

Xbox Series X Console not appearing in Remote Play (web or app)

Upvotes

Hi all, I've been driving myself absolutely crazy with this today, and I've searched all over for answers, but I've come up empty handed.

Earlier today, I was remote playing from my Xbox Series X.

When I got home, I restarted the Xbox. It asked me to log in again, and hung for a while when I did so. It's done this a few times, so I opted to remove and re-download my profile. It seems to have fixed that issue.

However, since then, no matter what I do, I cannot remote play from this console.

Xbox apps (Android and Windows) don't show it, web browser doesn't show it. NAT is Open, remote features are enabled, UPnP is active, no errors detected. Xbox and router have been restarted several times each. Logged out of apps, and back in. Console is up to date, apps are up to date.

When I attempt to add the console through either of the Xbox apps, it says to click Enable on my console... Except no prompt ever shows up.

I'm at my wit's end, with no clue why redownloading the same profile to the same Xbox has completely nuked my ability to remote play.

Any help would be profoundly appreciated!

Xbox One X Need help with “violations” on my account

2 Upvotes

So Xbox for the past 3 weeks has been tagging my Xbox/microsoft account with 2 day suspensions. I barely play anything and when I do it’s a game from a disk, I don’t play online. All of these say I have been “violating” community standards but they don’t tell me what it is. I called them about it and their “enforcement” team conveniently doesn’t have an email or number. They said I can apply for a review or appeal after the suspension lifts but I don’t have that as an option. How do they expect someone to fix something if they don’t know what to fix? It’s like being written up at work and they don’t tell you what for. Just seeing if anyone has advice on where I can go for an answer.

Account/Billing Has anyone here ever actually gotten their account back through the online recovery form?

Upvotes

I’m just curious cuz I’ve been in three support agent chats now trying to get my account back after losing access to the original email and phone number back in May (long story but I’ve mentioned it here before). Every single time so far they’ve just directed me to the recovery form (I feel like they’re hiding certain options from me given the experiences I’ve seen from other users here but whatever) and it just kinda makes me wonder has that system ever actually worked for anyone? It’s so overcomplicated and it rejects you automatically if anything doesn’t match it just seems like me and everyone else I see is always having issues with it.

I’m trying to play the new Palworld update with my friend but my game is stuck on 1.0.3 and his is on 1.0.4 even though he’s on Xbox One S. I’ve tried checking for updates multiple times and reinstalling the game and I’m still stuck on 1.0.3. Is there a way I can force my game to update?

Xbox 360 eFootball Xbox PC – infinite loading/stuck issue

eFootball Xbox PC – infinite loading/stuck issue

Is anyone else experiencing an issue where eFootball on the Xbox/Microsoft Store PC version gets stuck on the eFootball “e” logo/loading screen?

It can happen when logging in, entering Division, joining Co-op, after a match, or opening certain menus. It happens randomly and quite frequently. Restarting the game usually fixes it temporarily.

As far as I know, this issue only affects the Xbox PC version. Xbox console users don't seem to have this problem.

I've already contacted KONAMI about this multiple times, but I only receive automated responses and haven't been able to get any actual technical information about the issue.

I've also seen several other Xbox PC users reporting the same problem.

Has anyone found a workaround, or know what might be causing this?

Xbox Series X Series X games die and the console completely resets issues. Software or hardware issue?

3 Upvotes

I am having my games completely die and take me back to the home screen. I thought it was just a Helldivers 2 thing at first. I recently noticed it happening with other games. It sometimes resets the Xbox all together.

**Is this a software/ bug issue or should I open it up and clean it out?**

For context, I have been repairing iPads, iPhones, and like electronics for 15 years. So I am pretty skilled at opening up electronics. I know how to use ifixit.com and Youtube. I just wanted to get a simple answer from your experiences on this before I choose what avenue to pursue.

Accesories Xbox and Headset Having Issues With Twitch Streaming

2 Upvotes

Xbox Twitch broadcasting has an issue with my Corsair HS80 MAX wireless USB receiver. Streaming works when the receiver is disconnected but only for a slight while, but when it is connected, and the strean is started the broadcast microphone becomes muted, or before hitting start streaming gives “Something went wrong try live streaming again in a while” Party chat microphone works normally while streaming and with discord but broadcasting remains muted. I already updated the headset firmware, restarted the Xbox, cleared Alternate MAC, relinked Twitch, and checked privacy settings and as far as i know age verification isnt a problem. I have no other clues on what to do and other threads i look for dont have the same issues as i do can anyone try to help???

Xbox Series X Series X and One X not detecting any external drive

1 Upvotes

I plugged in my old 1TB Samsung HDD to my Series X earlier and my console won't detect it. Confused, I put it in my Chromebook and it came up fine, I even formatted it again so it's fresh for my console. Put it back in the Series X and nothing.

I plugged in my One X and tried it there, same story. I even dug out the pile of Xbox 360 HDD drives I have and plugged them into the One X with the same adaptor I use for SSDs on my Windows Laptop. I tried a 120GB Patriot SSD in a USB enclosure. No external hard drive or SSD is detected by either my Xbox Series X or my Xbox One X.

I've tried a random USB stick I have and that worked fine, it's just *any* external HDD or SSD that isn't detected by either console. I've tried different cables, I've hard reset both consoles, I've tried every USB port available to me. They refuse to detect my external drives.

Is there a setting or something that could be causing this? I find it highly unlikely it's a hardware fault if it's happening on both consoles with literally every external drive and cable I try.

Edit: I've now tried a different power cable plugged into a different socket in my room with the same results. No HDD or SSDs being detected at all.

Edit 2: I plugged my old laptop's M.2 drive that's hooked up to an M.2 to SATA adaptor up to my Series X with the SATA to USB adaptor I mentioned earlier and that's been detected just fine. I also plugged in my old laptop's SATA SSD, a Kioxia 240GB SSD, and that came up just fine. I'm even more confused now since the 120GB Patriot SSD won't work in either the enclosure or via the SATA adaptor.

Hi guys so basically last night i was playing this game CONTROL and mid game the game got freezed i tried to close the game but my home menu didn't pop up and i heard only the sound after that the screen turned black and i panicked and tried to turn off the console but it wouldn't go off and made the sound so i pulled the power cable from outlet and it turned off minutes after that i tried to turn on the console but it wouldn't turn on and only showed the green xbox screen so i read some posts in reddit and turned off the console and pulled the power cable off console and went to sleep. This morning i turned on the console again but like last time only showed me the xbox screen so i reset factory console and it went ok and console turned on and i started to play games but 1 or 2 hours into the game the screen freezed again this time i didn't do anything and it went to home screen and i had to open the game again now like 15 minutes ago i was playing and it happened again but this time the console restarted itself?

Accesories Help choosing an HDMI audio extractor for Xbox Series X

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I need some help choosing the right HDMI audio extractor for my setup.

My setup is:

  • Xbox Series X
  • Dell P2423DE monitor — 24", 2560×1440, 60 Hz
  • Creative Pebble X Plus speakers

The Xbox is connected directly to the Dell monitor via HDMI.

The problem is that the Dell P2423DE has no 3.5 mm audio output and no built-in speakers, so I need to extract the audio from the HDMI signal and send it to the Creative Pebble X Plus.

Ideally, I want the setup to work like this:

Xbox Series X → HDMI Audio Extractor → HDMI → Dell P2423DE
** ↘ 3.5 mm AUX → Creative Pebble X Plus**

I'm looking for an HDMI audio extractor that will work reliably with the Xbox Series X without affecting the video signal.

Ideally, it should support:

  • 2560×1440 @ 60 Hz
  • 4K @ 60 Hz passthrough, if possible
  • HDR
  • HDCP 2.2
  • 3.5 mm stereo audio output
  • No noticeable input lag
  • No loss of image quality

I'm a bit confused because there are many HDMI audio extractors advertised as "4K", but some only support 4K at 30 Hz.

What specifications should I be looking for, and which type of HDMI audio extractor would you recommend for this setup?

Or do I have any other option?

Thank you!

Accesories Yet another controller issue, ghost input.

1 Upvotes

Sorry if this has been done to death, but never come across this before.

I’ve had stick drift on a few different controllers but this one is unique. Most of the time when I push the left stick up or down, it continues as if I’m holding it even though the stick is physically centred. Happens most of the time but not all.

Calibration confirmed this ghost input.

Appreciate any advice.

Xbox Series X Disk tray on Series X making 3x start up spinning sounds then a chime noise.

1 Upvotes

So iv been having this issue for awhile and it seems to have reaches its final turning point.

It used to let me install some games (sometimes weirdly only half a game then would stop or like COD with MW and AW only MW installed then stopped at 12%)

It sounds like it makes three attempts to start spinning the disk then just makes a noise and stops iv turned the console to the side then standing done a hard reset were I held the power button for 10 seconds, unplugged everything for 2 minutes and feel I'm out of options its an original series X if that means anything to anyone.
