Wireless Xbox Controllers via USB Cable #94

Closed XeniumMods closed 1 year ago

XeniumMods commented 2 years ago

While I was doing some testing on the OGX360, I remembered there were cables for the Xbox360 so that you could connect a wireless controllers to the console, possibly for rechargeable batteries. Not having one to test I thought if something similar could be done with XboxONE and Series X/S wireless controllers. Using an Elite 1 (1698) and Series X (1914) controllers, I connected them to the OGX360 via USB cables I found that they both did register some button presses but for the most part it would not work as you might expect.

Is this something that can be implemented?

Pretty sure wireless 360 usb cables are purely charging?

Can you check if it works on a windows PC?

XeniumMods commented 2 years ago

That's what I thought. Xbox Support: Connect Controller to PC I got them both to work on PC and tested them over at gamepad-tester.com But I had to use different cables for them in order for Windows to detect them properly. Came across a YouTube video that discusses issues with some USB cables. After this I retested both controllers using the new cables. The XboxONE Elite controller worked fine and was surprised to see that my presets for the paddles were still there. The Series X controller does work now but some buttons are not as responsive. I went back to the PC and tested this controller again to see if it might be the cable but it seems to be alot more responsive on the PC that it does on the OGX360.

EDIT: As for the Xbox360 USB cable I do not have one to test.

Are you using the latest fw? V2.15 fixes some issues with xbox s/x controllers

XeniumMods commented 2 years ago

I just updated my Series X controller using my Series X console, not sure what version the firmware is but the issues persist. It could be the cable I'm using but it's the Xbox USB cable that came with my Elite 2 controller so you would expect it to work. Unfortunately I don't have much in the way of Type A to Type C cables to test any further at this stage...

I'm wondering if zeroing out those dropping resistors on the data lines just behind the Type-A port would help? I noticed on the tinyogx360 they were removed completely.

I mean ogx360 firmware v2.15

XeniumMods commented 2 years ago

Oh right, sorry my mind was else where. Confirmed that firmware v2.15 did the trick. Not sure which version I was using...

Thanks again
