Xbox One S Controller bluetooth connection

[BilbroBaggins]

I've followed every guide I've found and I've hit an error I haven't seen anywhere.

In bluetoothctl, I enter the command:

Code: Select all

connect ##:##:##:##:##:##

and I get back:

Code: Select all

[CHG] Device ##:##:##:##:##:## Connected: yes
[CHG] Device ##:##:##:##:##:## ServicesResolved: yes
Failed to connect: org.bluez.Error.Failed
[CHG] Device ##:##:##:##:##:## ServicesResolved: no
[CHG] Device ##:##:##:##:##:## Connected: no

And it puts me back where I started. If I try to connect using the bluetooth menu on the panel I get org.bluez.Error.Failed Input/Output Error

I have the controller firmware updated and the latest versions of xpad and xboxdvr installed. I'm running Raspbian on a Pi Zero W. The controller model is 1708.

Does anyone know what's going on?

I am having the exact same issue. I have tried all the "how-to" videos that don't work. I have updated my controller via windows 10. The controller will pair but not connect. Maybe something is broken in this latest realase of raspberry pi.

I had same error. After I did a

Code: Select all

pairable on

and it got paired and the error message is gone. However, it keeps on and off just does't stay connected now

I got my controller working wirelessly. I installed xpadneo:
https://atar-axis.github.io/xpadneo/

then followed these instructions:

good luck

the problem is 100% this:

This command disables the Enhanced Re-Transmission Mode (ERTM) of the Bluetooth module, with it, enabled the Xbox Controller won’t pair correctly.

echo 'options bluetooth disable_ertm=Y' | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/bluetooth.conf

(from: https://pimylifeup.com/xbox-controllers-raspberry-pi/)

on lakka i did this to deactivate it:

First add the following line to your autostart.sh file located in /storage/.config/autostart.sh

Code: Select all

nano /storage/.config/autostart.sh

then add the line:

Code: Select all

bash -c ‘echo 1 > /sys/module/bluetooth/parameters/disable_ertm’

then change the executable permission:

Code: Select all

chmod +x /storage/.config/autostart.sh

then finally execute it:

Code: Select all

/storage/.config/autostart.sh

now, try pairng again, should work on lakka... for raspian i think the more advanced users could provide a equivalent guide.

UPDATE

Well, thanks to some readings on internet i got it to work on raspian, here's how if anyone's interested:

Create a new file using nano...

sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/bluetooth.conf

Add a single line to the new file...

options bluetooth disable_ertm=Y

Exit nano, saving the file in the process.

Profit.
