Xbox One X: power cycling a permanent fix?

Tue, 06 Feb 2024 11:22:55 -0700

I have a one x that i received that the dvd drive works for a couple days and then stops. Put in a new drive and the same thing happens. I found out that if you hard power cycle the xbox that things will work again. Is this something that now i have done the power cycle that everything will work as it should now or should i look at alternatives? New power supply?

Update: power cycle makes it work temporarily and then it stops again. Less than a day. Going to try another power supply next and try different cords for the dvd drive. Any other suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Xbox One X: Why is my Xbox one x fan staying at the same speed?

Mon, 01 Jan 2024 14:04:27 -0700

Whenever I’m playing with my Xbox, the fan stays at the same speed, and starts heating up. After 10-15 minutes of playing, it overheats and turns itself off, to not cause damage. Do you guys know why’s that? And is there a fix for it?

Xbox One X: Trouble restoring console after failed hdd

Sun, 03 Sep 2023 07:55:14 -0700

A co worker game me this console and I'm having a hell of a time trying to get it going. The original issue was a dead hard drive but after trying to swap it out for a replacement multiple times it's still not working.

I have tried 3 different HDDs and 1 SSD. When installing the OS from a flash drive the progress will get to about 80-90% and fail. This has happened multiple times to all 4 drives. It got to the dashboard once but after trying to restart it the console went back to e105.

Any recommendations or thoughts on what the issue is and/or what I'm doing wrong would be greatly appreciated!

Xbox One X: Suddenly lost HDMI connection but now won’t turn on. Completely dead.

Tue, 29 Aug 2023 02:05:16 -0700

*NOTE: Xbox literally ran 24/7 for months and months whether played or not … constantly hot and dusty, rarely cleaned but did so with compressed air.(Obvs it belongs to a teenager so you’re preaching to the choir my friend)

During play, HDMI connection to the TV suddenly went out. Noticing the HDMI cord was still lit at the TV and console connections, Xbox was manually powered down, unplugged from the wall, briefly air dusted and set aside to cool. Well, turning it off must have totally killed it cause it’s DRT-dead right there. It doesn’t do a thing. The only thing that still has any life left is the controller but that doesn’t do jack for the console.

Xbox One X: U27 connector on the motherboard?

Sun, 19 Feb 2023 20:07:46 -0700

What is the name of the U27 connector on the motherboard, which is designed to connect a loop of an external USB connector.

It is very similar to the FPS connector for the touchscreen of the iPhone, but does not fit.

Xbox One X: Xbox One X: Error E200, OSU1, swapped HDD 2x, still E200 and no boot

Tue, 21 Dec 2021 09:11:48 -0700

(edited 21-12-21, added more details)

Hello,

After 5 days of not using his XBox One X, my son turned it on and saw an error message. I’m not sure about the code on the very first error screen, but after a reset it showed E200. I googled the error code and tried the known solutions (https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/hard...):

reset with keeping apps & game data: back into error E200
reset wiping all: back into error E200
USB update with OSU1 (via Microsoft site): 3rd part of process stops at 40% (full process at 77%), xbox resets, error E200
Tried a different HDD (1 TB), tried with the partitioning script (https://gbatemp.net/download/xbox-one-wi...) and without (OSU1 directly on NTFS formatted , empty HDD): E200 after update stops and resets at 40%/77%
Tried a working SSD, formatted to NTFS, with partitioning script, without,: E200, after 40%/77%

I was hoping it was a faulty disk, but having tried oriignal and 2 others, every disk the process stopping at the same moment, I’m hard pressed to believe it is a faulty disk.

Other things I tried:

While at it, I applied new cooling paste and pads on main processor and the surrounding IC’s, to as to rule out heat problems. Now, it only resets more silently into the same error E200…
Cloned the HDD of other One X, same E200 result.
Checked original (Seagate) disk with HD Tune pro full scan (took 6:36 hrs): zero damage, all clear.

Exact error code is always E200 0000000A 00000000

The build now active is of december 12th, 2021 (ending with 3038, https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/hard...), do not know if this was already applied before the error showed up or of this update caused the error.

Xbox One X was first active on 24 march 2019 , according to the info on my Microsoft account. So, not even 3 years in the running…

What can be a solution?

For some reason I got up this morning and my Xbox one x’s power button was lighting up my room from the light flashing twice. I’ve tried looking it up online but there isn’t any info on what is causing this. And it is also very warm to the touch.

Edit: It also constantly doesn’t want to download and games and it also constantly has a save game error and I don’t know what else to do with the Xbox

Xbox One X: HDMI Retimer Chip Compatibility

Sun, 12 Dec 2021 08:06:59 -0700

I have a Xbox one X that has no display output. The HDMI port is fine and I have also tried a known working hard drive but the problem persists.

I have come to the conclusion that it must be the HDMI Retimer chip that has gone bad, I have a few old Xbox one and One S boards that I can harvest the part from, my question is, are the Retimer chips off the One or One S boards compatible with the Xbox One X board?

Thanks in advanced
