ok ive been having this problem since i played saints row for about an hour, my elite controler just cuts off randomly, i have 3 bars in battery life and this started to happen when i started to play on saints row, now it happens on my other 2 games, forza2 and skate. My frined has the same problem, and not sure what it is ither. this may sound weird but when i smell my controles my elite one smells like somthing is burning, and my other doesn't ( don't mean that in a rasist way :) ) anyone have the same problem, or have some sort of Fix?

'cause it's more "733T" that way! :P Check MS database and see if anyone else has reported that same issue.

I went from a premium to an elite, and I can say for sure I haven't had that problem.

Although, since you mentioned "burning", I should mention that if I leave the Microsoft battery pack in with the play n charge cable for a long time, the back of the battery pack heats up quite a bit. I've never had problems with the signal dropping, but the battery packs definitely get a lot hotter than they should.

wow, you don't read do you?i said, that my white controler works fine, my black one doesn't, also my friend has the same problem, his white one works fine too And, had a look on the support page wiki thing, what ever, and didn't come up with anytihng, so, i wouls call microsoft, but ill only do that if my other controler mucks up to as i realy can't be arsed to speak on the phone for about 30 mins, most of whitch is on hold most likely them to tell me is that its just a faulty controler and they can't do much about it
