360 wireless controller question...

[sportsdude]

So, I'm playing R6 online and the "quadrant" light on my wireless controller starts flashing green. I looked it up in the manual and the explanation is either: the controller is not connected (it is, I can play games as it flashes) or that all four controllers are being used so the entire quadrant is lit up (I only have 1 controller, so not possible). There is no way it could be my batteries since I just got this last week and only play a couple of hours a day, if that.

So how do I stop it? If everything is fine, like it is, then why is this flashing at me? It's beginning to piss me off.

Try to re-sync with the 360. I had to do this before, when out of nowhere it did the same thing. It only takes about 10 seconds to do so.

Theres a little white button on top of your remote, as well as on the front of the 360. Click and hold the one on the fron of the 360 until the lights are spinning around, then do that same thing on the remote, holding down the white button. Then, they will sync up.

If the light keeps flashing in 2 quadrants at a time then it means that your batteries are almost dead.

that's ridiculous. I just got this thing last week. How long do the batteries usually last in this thing?

My rechargeable battery pack last about 20 hrs give or take. I thought it was about the same for the batteries that came with my controller.

And what you are describing sounds like the battery running out. You can see how much battery is left by pressing on the big "X" button to bring up the mini dashboard you can access in game. At the top left corner it will show your battery status.

If you think it is running out too quick, you can also try unhooking the batteries and putting them right back in. I've had it start flashing with a fully charged battery and done that...when I put it back in it was reading that I had a fully charged battery.
