Ultimate 3-mode for Xbox Will Not Pair Wirelessly to Xbox

The documented Xbox input path on this 8BitDo model is wired; the three modes serve different hosts.

Why this happens

Its PC 2.4 GHz and mobile Bluetooth modes can be mistaken for Xbox wireless support.

What to check

1. Use a USB data connection to Xbox for this exact model.
2. Reserve the documented receiver and Bluetooth modes for their listed hosts.
3. Check the game and controller firmware after wired input is established.
