Unable to connect via 2.4G wireless:

Verify the USB dongle is securely inserted into the device. Ensure the controller is in 2.4G pairing mode (B + HOME for 3 seconds). Try a different USB port on your device.

Unable to connect via Bluetooth:

Make sure the controller is in Bluetooth pairing mode (HOME for 3 seconds). Check your device's Bluetooth settings to ensure it's discoverable and try re-pairing. Remove any previous pairings of the controller from your device's Bluetooth list.

Input lag or disconnection:

Ensure there are no obstructions between the controller and the receiver (dongle or Bluetooth device). Move closer to the device. Avoid strong electromagnetic interference from other wireless devices. If using 2.4G, try a different USB port. If using Bluetooth, ensure your device's Bluetooth drivers are up to date.

Joystick drift or unresponsive buttons:

The Hall Effect components are designed to prevent drift. If you experience issues, try recalibrating the controller through your device's settings if available. Ensure the controller's firmware is up to date (check the manufacturer's website for tools). If the issue persists, contact customer support.
