what, controller are you using ? is it a 3rd party controller?
velvet zodiac
No it is a genuine Microsoft one
With the Xbox
I also bought another one this morning it came today but that one doesn’t work eaither
topaz owl
connect it wireless
velvet zodiac
It works wireless but the problem is
I use an adapter which needs to be wired for it to work
Otherwise it will not work
velvet zodiac
I did
I even if I don’t use the adapter
I plug the controller into the console directly
topaz owl
you didnt say anything about an adapter
velvet zodiac
you didnt say anything about an adapter
That is just the reason I need it to work
Has nothing to do with it not working
velvet zodiac
My issue is when I plug the usb cable directly to the Xbox and then to my controller it does not turn on
velvet zodiac
What adapter are you talking about? why are you using it
XIM apex I use it for games like gta and Minecraft and some cod’s because when I play games on controller I get problems with my fingers
My fingers get stuck
topaz owl
if its working wireless but not wired thats the cable the likley reason for that is that the cable is not an data cable
If you use a 3rd party adapter like XIM then this can add issues too

if its working wireless but not wired thats the cable the likley reason for that...
Ok do you know of any cables that are very likely to work ?
I bought one from a company called venom recently but that doesn’t work
velvet zodiac
If you use a 3rd party adapter like XIM then this can add issues too
👍🏻
topaz owl
a usb data cable
but again your using something that is not officially supported the XIM adapter
velvet zodiac
Oh
No but I’m talking when I don’t use the XIM adapter
Like I said I only use for certain games
velvet zodiac
a usb data cable
So I just need one that is one of these?
topaz owl
you do not need too no, If you do not have a usb data cable then you can connect wireless
velvet zodiac
I have 2 usb cables
But both of them do not work
I would like to play wired so I should just buy another one and try it ?
Mb for taking up your time
topaz owl
then you need a USB-C data cable
velvet zodiac
Okay
Thank you for your time
Would there be any other solutions if this does not work ?
velvet zodiac
Okay
If it works with just the controller
It will most likely work with the XIM likely
velvet zodiac
a USB-C data cable will work
Could u please send me one that I could@buy if you have the time just in case I buy the wrong one again?
I normally use a Samsung cable which stopped working
