Controller cant start configuring
-
finally got the raspberry pi connected to wifi, updated it, and now I have a new issue. Im using a wired xbox one controller, and I cant hold down a button to start configuring. It says 1 gamepad detected, but i cant start configuring.
im using a 5 volt powered usb hub, raspberry pi zero w (getting 5 volts also), and I really just want to get retropie setup already. -
anyone?

Error messages received:Fill out this^^^ first.
When you hold in a button is there text that shows up starting grey slowly getting darker at the bottom of the dialog?
Also goto command line and type lsusb and paste the results. -
raspberry pi zero w
5 volt power supply
retropie 4.2 and then updated everything from the .sh thing
built from sd image from retropie website and file is called "retropie-4.2-rpi1_zero.img"
all thats plugged in is 4 port usb hub that is getting 5 volts (with controller plugged in)
the controller is a blue rock candy wired xbox one controller
im not really getting a error message.
apparently the controller still isnt working at all, as the controller isnt named.so now I need help getting it to work.

@gamerguy010101 does the hub have its own power supply? What hub is it?
-
@gamerguy010101 said in Controller cant start configuring:
5 volt power supply
Yes but what is the current rating?
-
idk what a rating would be for it, but the hub is a 2.0 travel usb hub that I modified to be plugged in (again, 5 volts)
-
@gamerguy010101
It should say how many amp it can supply on the power supply "aka current" -
@gamerguy010101 it will say something like 5v 2a or like 5v 500ma. That is the amperage that we need to know for the power cord powering the pi
-
5 volt power supply, btw its a apple power supply.
-
@gamerguy010101 you have already stated this. You need to quote the CURRENT rating.
-
@gamerguy010101
Take a photo of the sticker that shows the specifications on the power supply and post it here. -
idk how to post a picture of it.
im bad
-
@gamerguy010101 Write down everything exactly what's written on the power supply, maybe we can decipher it for you. What apple product was it used on?
-
@gamerguy010101
I don't think retropie is for you. -
@gamerguy010101 can you read what the amperage is? It will be something like 500ma or 1a or something like that. It is listed on the output right after it says 5v. Or post a link to one on another sight so we can see it for ourselves.
-
@gamerguy010101 click this Look closely at the 9V DC output - it says 300mA next to it. That's 300 milliamps or 0.3A. You need something like 1.5A for your zero and anything else to be comfortable.

@gamerguy010101 Hope it does not say 9V...otherwise your Pi Zero is blown.
