Xbox One PadHack Thread - Calling the goons "Toodles, Gummowned, Phreak and You" Do it for the Kids

Mine turned out the complete opposite of this hahahaha

Id like to add an xbox one pad to a qanba stick with an imp. Im just wondering with an imp where would I solder the wires from the buttons and stick to? Both qanba and xbox one pcbs?

But you are proud right? Happy to have learned?

your own preferences will developā€¦ those are just my own and that doesnā€™t mean anyone elses are any less in my eyes either.

the only button you solder to the imp is the home button

Iā€™m at a bit of a loss here. Ive verified all my connections but from what I can tell in training mode in KI it thinks im pressing every button. If i switch the LB and ground connections ( i know this because i mixed them up) every button works but LBā€¦ Any ideas? Thanks.

Pics please

TBH and IMO soldering is easier for tight spaces but if you have the room crimping is acceptable. If they allow crimping for professional audio demonstrations itā€™s acceptable for a fight stick :smiley:

I should have been more specific sorry. Iā€™m wiring this up to the inputs on the CHImp board as well as using the ground on the CHImp. Iā€™m taking power from a cable plugged directly into the pcb from the play n charge kit so Iā€™m not using the CHImp board in any way other then using the terminals to tie into the buttons and the ground, which ive verified works with all buttons ( testing each button to ground on continuity and pressing the button reads across) the ground is on the next stud above it because i lifted the trace. This was happening before finding a new ground though. The soldering looks a little crude right now but thats because ive had the wires off a few times and I just want to get it to work before i re-do the connections.

So your xb1 goes to your chimpā€¦ was the chimp already working in the stick or are you trimodding from scratch?

Its something I picked up from KuyaJoeā€¦ it is no better functionallyā€¦ but is more aesthetically pleasing when you are going for a particular look.

This is a great example of how damn good he is at itā€¦ he didnt use any ribbon wiresā€¦thats all hand made

@kuya_joe

everything was working ahead of time. Iā€™m no newb to electronics so I tested the stick on my 360 and ps3 and tested the controller before starting the mod. I dont think the CHImp has anything to do with this since Iā€™m just using the terminals as an easy location to jack into the buttons and the power is being fed to the xbox one pcb via the stock controller

If i switch the ground and lb wires everything works but LB.

Ed do not post porn on this site please. Lol

Question for some of you.
Are these Xbone controllers compatible with the 360? I assume not but I donā€™t know if it has been said or not.

I havenā€™t seen work that good in a long time.

Shorten those wires budā€¦too much exposed wire. And get those analog sticks offa there! My second attempt coming up. Wonā€™t be perfect but will be clean. Removed all buttons and analog sticks. Kept the two board pcb layout thoughā€¦Not attempting that again LOL

Would i be able to solder the buttons and directions from a madcatz xbox 360 fightpad to the xbox one PCB and then use the fight pad on the xbox one?

Yes

So the SfxT xbox 360 fight pad is common ground?

Oh I know the wires are too long. As I mentioned its just temporary until I figure out whatā€™s going on. Iā€™m pretty sure I read a few pages back that if you remove the analog sticks you have to wire in resistors. Is that right? Thatā€™s why I kept them on there for now.

Where the black wire is connected in your picture is actually your LB connection and the other three points close by it are ground (blue wire) (thx Ed1371). There was a picture posted earlier that was labeled wrong, I made this mistake myself following that picture and realized it when trying to find somewhere else to solder because I messed up LB and GND with my iron. If you donā€™t think the ground is good at that point you can check continuity between that point and the usb connector housing. If itā€™s busted, you can get your ground from the other side, by your RB connection, the other 3 posts are ground.

I donā€™t know why your LB stops working thoughā€¦ I messed up the trace so bad on mine, I had to connect directly to the header for my LB.

Yes, the SfxT pads are pretty much all I use for mods these days because they are so cheap.

When you are doing this mod, first I would suggest a project box for the Xbone pad.
2nd Make sure when you are soldering to the connections on the sfxt pad in a way that you do no interfere with the padding and whatnot since you plan on using it.
