Hello, everyone!

Earlier today, I plugged in my PowerA Spectra Xbox ONE controller to my x64 Arch computer running 4.6.4-1, and it didn't interface correctly. The controller powered on, and the LED started blinking, but no inputs were sent. After a little digging around and reading https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Gamepad, i tried xboxdrv to no avail, I tried steamos-xpad to no avail, and I also tried the dkms xpad at https://github.com/paroj/xpad to no avail. Looking through the xpad.c file in that repository, i noticed that there was a list of devices, and mine was listed (the vendor and product IDs matched). Unfortunately, i can't seem to get it working, even on my x86 Arch laptop running 4.6.4-1. I grabbed my official Microsoft Xbox One controller and plugged it in via USB, and it interfaced correctly, so it must be a problem with the controller. jstest returns 'input/output error', evtest returns 'input/output error', even cat returns 'input/output error'. I'm willing to try anything to get this working, I just don't understand why it doesn't even though it should.

Thanks for your time.

Unplug the cable and make sure you are connecting it in the right slot, then connect it again.

Ensure that you are plugging your controller into a USB port that will provide enough power for the controller to work.

You might not have the correct software that recognizes the controller; check if you even have a software. If not, download one. If this does not work, test your controller on other devices, such as an Xbox console or another computer to check if the controller works.

Some or all the buttons in my controller take too long to pop up

The buttons on your controller might have food residue or just dust. If you want to clean them you will need a cleaning wipe and some alcohol. If that does not work, try opening the controller to clean them more thoroughly or change them.

When I am playing a game, the controller won’t vibrate.

Make sure the vibration option is enabled which is commonly found in the setting of the game you are playing. The vibration option may also be turned off from the console settings.

Try out a different controller to play the game. If the controller still doesn’t vibrate there is a high chance the game doesn’t support the vibration effect.

If you’ve tried all the above and your controller still isn’t vibrating, you most likely have a defective vibration motor. If so, grab a screwdriver because you will need it for the Xbox One Wireless Controller Trigger Rumble Motor Replacement guide. This guide requires soldering.

My controller is working but the led appears off

There might be a problem with the connections between the LED and the power of the controller. This could be either because it has fallen or a beverage has been spilled on it. The best option is to open the controller and check the connections with a voltage tester.
