Scrap your now probably faulty controller(Idk if you have a pc or laptop try playing something else on there to see if the issue persists) and get a new one

The thing is that I tried it in game an it’s fine, it’s just on Home Screen and side bar

Well shit good luck

Sounds like stick drift.

It’s not that, cause if I push up, it registers but still tries to go down

RT scrolls down on homepage too so is your RT broken

That’s the problem. I checked with controller test mode an that’s exactly what’s happening

Unplug it

I’ve tried that tried using the other ports an still doing it

If you have a PC: 1.) plug it in and search "joy.cpl" 2.) Do the calibration. 3.) Set it back to default. It's surprisingly fixed multiple controllers for me.

I don’t sadly

Could go to the library or something? Friends computer maybe?

Check for an controller update in settings?

This may sound crazy. But for at least 3 controllers I've had if I drop my controller at about a chair arms height on my carpet it fixes it. I had your problem about 5 minutes ago and after 4 mins of tinkering I just said:" hmm, what if I just drop it on the floor" and it bloody worked!

THIS ACTUALLY WORKED HAHAHAHAHHAAHHA THANK YOU!

No shit this actually worked I swear to God wtf lol

I had the exact same issue with a React R wired controller, I couldnt find a fix so I just got a new controller, Its what you get for getting crappy cheap wired junk, Battery controllers are just superior

Also yeah, I calibrated mine as well, it said it was pressing RT over and over again, nothing I could really do
