Xbox One S Bluetooth Controller

@KryPtAlIvIaN So, I bought my controller and tried to sync it... after a few tries, it saw the controller but when I tried to set the security settings I got the following string:

Traceback (most recent call last):

Is that what you got? Or did you get something different?

My Xbox One S Controller is now working on Retropie 4.0.2 using a physical cable. The Bluetooth in Retropie does see my controller when it is not connected physically, but doesn't use it via Bluetooth correctly yet.

@anasazi29 How did you manage to connect the Xbox One S controller with a cable? I can´t seem to make it work. (on clean install and after update)

Look inside the battery compartment to get the model number. As far as I know the Model 1697 ones still aren't working right due to how Bluetooth is implemented in them.

@mrbwa1 I have a 1701 model, i can't use bluetooth, i have the model 1 rbpi and my bluetooth adapter does not work. I was hoping connecting it trough a USB cable would work though

@Slakkers Hmm. Ohay. I haven't tried, but I would imagine using a cable should work if you set up the XBOXDRV driver.

Slakkers

Tried both the xpad and xboxdrv drivers, no luck.
I´ve managed to get my hands on a working bluetooth dongle, and i can see the device listed in bluetooth settings but no luck trying to pair it (gives same error as zentrippin posted. Using a cable is not working either.

@Slakkers Hey man. I have the Xbox One S model 1708. It still does not work connecting through bluetooth, however, I did not install any drivers, just connected using the Microsoft Xbox One official charging cable and rechargable battery pack and it works on my Raspberry Pi 3 / Retropie just fine. My only suggestion is that you connect your new controller to your Xbox One or Windows 10 machine and make sure the firmware is up-to-date.
When I got into the retropie section to configure buttons, it actually reads my controller as an "Xbox One S Controller"

@anasazi29 I think i just give up on this project, upgraded the controller and connected it to the raspberry. Emulationstation DOES indeed find a controller connected to the USB port, but no matter what do i can't configure it.
