FAQ All controllers

Firmware Update combo:

L + R + START -> Connect to USB

Except the Lite controller due to missing POWER button

L + R + HOME

Rescue Flash (Alternative Flash Combo, for e.g. when controller does not Power up by START)

Holding L + R -> Connect to USB

Best practise:

Use the individual installer for your corresponding controller, instead of the "Upgrade Tool" (at this point it is buggy and sometime bricks controllers -> See Rescue Flash)

Delete Bluetooth Pairing and re-pair

Press and hold the SELECT/Pair button 2 to 3 seconds, LED will rapidly blink

STAR and HOME Buttons

May not be usable on different consoles/systems. For e.g. the MiSTer project.

Force Power off / factory reset

To restore to factory settings (or force power off) hold down the START/Power button for 8 seconds.

HOME button combos

HOME button combos and controllers with HOME Button can trigger the HOME/In-game menu on different consoles like the Nintendo Switch, Playstation Classic Mini, Mega Drive/Genesis Classic Mini, NES Classic Mini and the Retron 5. Look for the possible button combos in the FAQ sections.
