Xbox Preview Program - Xbox One Controller Firmware update

RDJ134 27 januari 2015 om 17:00 uur

Hoewel de nieuwswaarde van dit bericht minder dan niks is, is het interessant om te zien dat Microsoft nu bezig is met een firmware update voor de Xbox One controller. Deze start nu in 4 seconde op en dat is volgens het bedrijf uit Redmond iets aan de trage kant en dat wordt nu terug gebracht naar 2 seconden. De mensen uit het preview programma mogen hier al vast mee spelen en daar over meer in het onderstaande bericht. Let opt dit is vor de mensen die mee doen met previewen van software updates en dus nog NIET voor ons gebruikers beschikbaar.


If you are a member of the Xbox Preview Program, I recommend you update your Xbox One controller(s) with the latest preview build (OS version > 1502.150120) which provides the following updates:

•Quick Connect - previous controller connections to an Xbox One took 4-5 seconds when powering on a controller, now they should occur in ~2 seconds

•Stability improvements - the firmware also provides a number of fixes that address issues submitted by customers and preview participants

To update your controller firmware:

Connect a controller to your Xbox One with a USB cable. Keep any headsets connected to the controller.
Connect to Xbox Live.
Press the Menu
Go to Settings > Devices & accessories. Select the controller.
If you have multiple controllers attached, you can select Buzz - which will cause the selected controller to vibrate.
Then select Update to download the new firmware to the controller attached via the USB cable, and the screen will show the Updating controller ... progress screen
When you see the Controller updated screen, press 'B' to go back to the Devices & accessories main page
Reselect the controller, the Firmware version, should now be: 1.2.2236.0

Thanks for helping make Xbox One better and better!
