Xbox One Wireless Controller Model 1708: Problema nos analógicos do meu controle

Sun, 20 Apr 2025 12:39:21 -0700

O meu controle de Xbox One está com um problema nos analógicos. No analógico de cima (normalmente o de movimentar o personagem) ele está com uma "hipersensibilidade" onde se eu movo uma vez no menu ele move 2 vezes no menu. E o analógico de baixo (normalmente associado com a câmera) está com um drift muito específico onde ele se move sozinho para baixo mas após o drift magicamente sumir ele só se move ou totalmente para cima ou totalmente para baixo. Ou até as vezes apenas horizontalmente.

Xbox Series X Wireless Controller: Right trigger replacement maybe

Wed, 08 Apr 2026 23:32:38 -0700

right trigger doesn't work which makes sense because the circular magnet looking thing is broken off and lost. How should I fix it?

Xbox Series X Wireless Controller: My controller is recognized in windows but the led doesnt turn on.

Wed, 01 Apr 2026 14:02:50 -0700

My Xbox controller, which I was installing TMR sticks as soon as I finished installing the sticks, the controller gets connected, and Windows recognizes it as wireless_device, but it doesn't work at all. I installed the right stick first. I tested it and calibrated, and it worked fine, but as soon as I finished the left stick, the controller got recognized, but the LED indicator didn't turn on, and there was no input. The traces were all perfect, and no missing components. Is it the TMR's fault?. I will try desoldering it later, but I want answers, please!!!. thanks.

Update: At a certain point when I barely connect the two boards together it shows the led and if I kinda move even so slightly it stops. And I hear this buzzing noise very low from the controller

Xbox Series X Wireless Controller: Trigger drifting and can't be calibrated

Thu, 26 Mar 2026 16:54:52 -0700

So I recently been working on soldering with the xbox controllers I had. In total I have like 5 daughter boards. 3 I cleaned up because originally I thought I messed them up but turns out I didn't fully. Anyways I had another daughter board that I removed the old joysticks from and put new ones in. Before I did that I removed the impulse motors and rumble motors from the board so I wouldn't mess them up around that time I put those parts with the other motors I had when I installed the new joysticks I grabbed random motors from the pile I grabbed the correct ones for the rumble motors and the impulse motors I thought I did as well. After putting it back together I went to calibrate the joysticks which calibrated perfectly but there was still drift input which in turn when I went to calibrate the triggers it wouldn't even show me pressing it down. When I pressed it down it just showed on screen that the triggers were half way pressed down. So asking here what it might be because the magnents are perfectly fine and ultimatley I think it might be those impulse motors. I put them in correctly and soldered them in correctly and only issue it could be is that there either in the wrong spots or the wrong motors. I believe that might be the case but just wanting to know so I know what I need to do to fix it.

Xbox One Elite Wireless Controller Series 2: Can not power on without external power

Thu, 26 Mar 2026 12:08:55 -0700

The controller will not switch on without being plugged into the xbox or on the charging Dock.

However once powered up like this I can remove external power source or dock and use wireless as normal, the home button also works in the xbox menu!

It just won't power on when wireless...

Battery is OK as I've swapped it already.

All board connections pads are clean and carbon free.

Any ideas guys n gals

I'm not scared of Pad/trace repairs confident soldering with iron or air, but this has me stumped.....

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

Sun, 22 Mar 2026 15:59:58 -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 Wireless Controller: My joysticks randomly lose the ability to go forward

Fri, 20 Mar 2026 11:44:42 -0700

My Xbox Series X controller randomly loses the ability to push forward, with it instead pushing backwards (left stick), while the right stick will push all the way down. I initially suspected the sticks but that can't be the case, as they suddenly behave normally upon entering the Xbox accessories recalibration screen, before reverting in a matter of minutes. Furthermore, this issue only occured after I had entered the recalibration screen for the first time to fix bad circularity

(Installed joysticks are Ginfull Hall Effect V2 sticks, additionally, I have the ExtremeRate HOPE Remap kit installed)

Xbox Series X Wireless Controller: Right trigger is getting somewhat sticky

Sat, 14 Mar 2026 05:05:13 -0700

When I push my right trigger all the way down, it sticks a bit before releasing, giving a weird, sticky sensation, but it doesn't actually get stuck, nor does it hold down the button.

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 14:42:49 -0700

Hello there, i recently got a cheap xbox with a controller that was listed as having drift.

Apon replacing the joysticks and testing it via online drifting tools, its smack bang in the middle with zero play but my controller will still pull downwards on the menu no matter what.

I’ve completely cleaned the entire controller inside with 99% iso with a brush.

Heres a video of it.

Xbox One Elite Wireless Controller Series 2: My right analog stick spins

Sat, 14 Feb 2026 11:54:10 -0700

My right analog spins anti-clockwise and the further I screw it, the higher it goes and starts scratching on the plastic around it but if you screw it the other direction, it locks. I can still play fine but it just randomly starts unscrewing sometimes and it's annoying. Does anyone know how to fix this?
