Yep, you read that right, 111 glorious days of Xbox One gaming. It was a good run, until the unit started shutting off after anywhere from 5 seconds to 1 minute.

Microsoft XBOX ONE controller. Serial Number. Postal Code (ZIP). The Xbox One controller is one. Repeat the settings and change the target device number for each controller. I find just about everything about the Xbox One to. Working out the Xbox 360 Manufacturing Date and Serial. The serial number for the 360 wireless controller? Xbox 360 Manufacturing Date and Serial Number.

I called support, they walked me through all of the normal 'is it plugged in' and 'have you tried another outlet' steps. After getting through all of that, it was determined that the unit needed a warranty repair. I sent it in 3 weeks ago, only to receive it back last night with a little form letter stating that Microsoft had determined that it had been opened or tampered with.

The thing has been on my entertainment center since I bought it. I haven't even thought about opening it, much less actually doing it.

Besides, what idiot (ok, there's probably some out there) would open up a new unit under warranty? To make matters worse, the console came back with extra damage, as if it had been dropped on multiple corners. The security sticker was mangled as well. I called Microsoft Support. The first guy was so confused he gave up on me and transferred me to someone else.

The second guy was nice enough, and they asked me to e-mail them pictures of the damage. That's where I'm at with Microsoft. As for where I ordered this originally, it was a Walmart.com purchase, so I called my local Walmart store. They told me to go pound sand, they only honor 15 day returns. I told them they sold me a lemon, to which I was replied to with dead air. I called 1-800-Walmart, and to my surprise learned that there was an extended warranty purchased with it (it was a gift). I called the extended protection people, and they said, 'Sorry, we won't honor it if Microsoft won't.'

Since I know for a fact that I didn't open this thing or tamper with it in any way, my next call was to FedEx. It was out of my possession while being shipped by FedEx, and it left me not having been tampered with and arrived at the service center tampered with. I talked to them about making a claim for shipping damages, so I've got the process prepped and ready to go if I have to there.

So that leaves me here, waiting for Microsoft to respond to some pictures I sent them. I'm not optimistic as it's just little ol' me vs. One of the biggest companies in the world. A lot of people will probably tell me, 'Go get a new one,' and in reality, I don't really know what else I'm going to be able to do. I am so fired up about this, however, that I'm getting ready to file a complaint with my state's consumer protection division, and then a small claims suit. This whole thing is just beyond comprehensible. Has anyone else run into a similar situation, and if so, what did you do to resolve it?

This situation hasn't happened to me but I believe you if you say it wasn't tampered with. Is it possible that the consoles were mixed up at the repair facility? Are you sure that you have yours back? I'm sure it's mine.

The serial number matches. Believe me, if I were dumb enough to tamper with it, I would just own it and move on with my life. But, I have not done a thing to it. Hmmm, that's quite a pickle. I would contact Walmart and see what's up there. If that fails I would contact Walmart's corporate contacts and see what's going on there. I'd also follow the Microsoft route too and see what can be done there.

And this is only your console right? You don't share it with a brother, son, daughter (HA! People know girls don't play video games!) wife? I called the local Walmart. Kavi bana amma free download sinhala font. It failed, manager wouldn't even get on the phone. An in-person trip is next.
