eXtremeRate Textured Green HOPE Programable Remap Kit for Xbox Series X/S Controller, Upgrade Boards & Redesigned Back Shell & Side Rails & Back Buttons for Xbox Core Controller

This does require a decent understanding of soldering techniques and the proper equipment. The instructions were fine, they could have used a bit more detail on how many of the connections need to be soldered and why but it works out fine. When done correctly the final results are great and it makes an awesome controller that costs less than an Elite Thanks you for making this great product so easily accessible and available!

Sadly my controller started triple tapping buttons when the mod was installed. So, I had to remove it. After having this installed and then having to remove it, I can say I cant see playing some games w/o it. I have zero plans to risk buying another one currently till I can address the failure point. Im leaving my first review intact but would like to make a note. *The removal was easier than expected but I recommend using proper pry tools and a low temp setting on your heat mat/gun to soften the adhesive and make it come off w/o damaging the tfp/ribbon connectors. My First Review is below. PROS Great upgrade! CONS Can make future controller repairs considerably more difficult. Super easy to figure out. I was able to install it w/o even needing to look up directions online. If work on Cellphones or Macs running traces and dealing with multiple screw sizes all over isnt a big deal. (This is way easier) Build time is about 20 Minutes. Its plastics designed very well, but not the best quality of plastics. -Might become a bit brittle and crack near stress points over time. So, dont over tighten those screws. My main gripe is with how its is made to be permanent. It makes future service of the controller way more difficult than it should be. Like if it develops drift for example. A simple redesign of the flex-board could eliminate this by moving the w2w to the center and run it up between the wireless ants. It might have room to use a single ribbon this way. (would loose the Tester feature) But that way the tape wouldnt need removed should you ever need to replace your joys. or button caps. The price of this kit + a controller is close to that of a refurbished elite controller or even more than a used first gen elite controller. It never hurts to think about serviceability. Anyways Great product if you already have a spare controller laying about. It might be worth the extra few bucks to get an actual elite series as they are fully serviceable and can be exchanged for new ones while under warranty should they break.

Difficult to install. I originally had given it a 1 star, but after tricking n soldering wires on n off, n a few more breaking off along the way, I was finally able to make this controller with the help of my bro. After making this wrk, it was a great feeling n accomplishment. Superb controller with great the features. Love this controller now!

As other reviews mention, after installing this kit, several keys do not work. In my case, not even the remapping worked. (Its easy to install, but note I have plenty of experience working with Electronics/Robotics and soldering) But the worst is the support given by the seller. To make the story short, after installing the kit (and then removing it), the controller (Brand new controller that came with my Xbox Series S) stopped working. Of course, installing this voids your warranty, but I still brought the controller and the kit to an authorized Microsoft Repair center for diagnostics, after troubleshooting, the technician found the kit had a Short circuit (They seem to dont do QA to their products), the issue caused the main logic board on the controller to die. The short circuit was between 2 points on different points of the flex board, but they problem was somewhere on the traces.. so it was a manufacturing issue, so this company probably never test their product before shipping After contacting the seller, with diagnostic and the issue found by a certified technician, they turn very hostile, and after requesting to be accountable for their issue, they stop replying. (Also note you can only contact them via Social Media, not even an official email, ticket system or Customer support, they reply to you every 2-3 days). I have already contacted Amazon to conduct an investigation on this seller.

Had trouble at first but works great now…Installer error. The first time I Soldered, all of led’s on the test board lit up, indicating that all solder points were good. After putting it back together and using the controller, my R3 wasn’t mapping. So I took it back apart and retested it, and sure enough R3 and TP 15 we’re not lit up on the test board. So if anything isn’t mapping retest and fix solder points.

Best kit works really good love using these buttons definitely not cheaply made good material

Easier install, havent soldered anything in years and it was straightforward with the youtube tutorial. Perforsm as adversities buttons are chunkier than I tough but still Works well.

Never soldered before so was a little timid at first. Thank god for the test light device in the package because 3 points were connected and I went back and hit them again. After that all the light went on and it worked just fine. Gonna take some getting used to with the buttons but pretty nice quality and looks good for the price. Overall I am happy so far.

I was really excited to upgrade my controller and I can solder in my sleep. It didn’t even work. Complete waste of money.

Love this remap kit it’s affordable and with some basic soldering skills you can have a pretty nice modded controller. It’s definitely helped with my gaming movement being a lot faster once I got used to it.
