I had a 1st party controller with a bad cord ( it disconnected when you moved it making the xbox throw a nag message) So i soldered on a usb cord and i chose to cut the wires after the white connector, soldered a just heat shrunk it. Forced tge wire through the original grommet. Used that special windows driver, it made for a good controller for emulation.

Do you still sell these? Looks like the page is sold out.

First enable a playlist, then select use theme plays list and it should start working on reboot.

Please share how you made this custom theme. I would like to make my own custom theme.

Hi Red, that may take a video to explain in detail. Basically themes have an xpr file that houses all the textures and icons etc. theme xpr loads up and whatever textures are not present load from the textures.xpr (default). There is more to it, adding a color.xml, fonts, plays list etc. I’ll try and put a video together in the next month or so, im working on a new custom theme. It’s not quite ready for release but maybe a good one to show a behinds the scenes look at the creative process.

I bought a cord from your Ebay store. Right now it has a zip tie around the cord pinching it to work. I like how you sell bulk orders of 10. I was going to make a video, untill I seeing you made your own video. This is easier than cutting and soldering the wires, and a professional repair. Anyone selling refurbished controllers needs to replace the whole cord. You can also reuse the wires in a old cord to solder onto the motherboard to fix a broken trace for free.

Thanks Joe, please let me know how the repair goes. I have free shipping on the Shopify store for the bulk orders so if you decide to do that I encourage you to get it there, ebay also kills me in fees but eh I just roll with it. Best of luck on your repair.

I got it installed. Like you said removing the solder is the hardest part. The cord is the same length as the original which is nice. I made a video.

would this process be similar for the duke controllers? I brought my old xbox out of storage to find the duke that came with it dead. my S controllers are fine, but there's something about the fat controllers

Great video. Thanks for putting this together. I looked at my controller and suspected de-soldering might be needed to remove that white junction with the individual wires. Your video confirmed that for me! Now, I just need to try to solder for the first time....

Hi Evan, thanks for commenting and watching. If you want me to replace the controller cord for you can mail me the controller or the controller pcb and I can add, test and send back. You would handle the freight both ways, cost of cord and $5 for the service that will include (2) new thumbsticks. If that’s of interest shoot me a email via the website.

@@gameroomcustoms I appreciate the offer, though the cost of shipping is just too much for me to consider. This is a skill I'd like to have anyway, so I don't mind doing it myself.
