Button input getting stuck

Jump to Best Response

Occasionally I've noticed that my stadia controller's buttons sometimes get stuck on input, even though they're not being pressed down.  I've had it happen to R buttons and the X button off the top of my head, I think it can happen on any of the buttons, but if they're used frequently it seems more likely that they'll get stuck on input.  This bug doesn't happen frequently, but when it does it's upsetting because I lose control of the situation in the game.  I've had this happen to me in Immortals Rising Fenyx and Cyberpunk 2077, so I don't think it's a game issue.

Has anyone else run into this?  Are there any fixes?

Hey @d1337,

Sorry to hear your button input with the Stadia controller gets stuck.

To fix this I would recommend to walk through these steps from this article (especially Hard Reset + FR).

If this still doesn't fix the issue, I would recommend to get in touch with the Stadia support for further troubleshooting and/or checking if the controller needs to be replaced.

Got the Stadia controller and Chromecast Ultra this week and tried running Cyperpunk 2077 on it.

Then I also got the stuck button behavior on it, suddenly the weapon started to shoot and wouldn't stop and also when picking up bodies it just throw them back down.

Switched to a PC and connected a Playstation 4 controller to it and got the same behavior on the PC.

Is it Stadia that doesn't work as it should or is it the game?

This is happening to me with Immortals Fenyx Rising. I'm on Chrome OS using mouse and keyboard. During combat sometimes my character will keep sprinting in a direction I was sprinting in even though I let go of the buttons. And sometimes modifiers like holding down the shift key to do axe attacks will remain on even though I let go of the shift key awhile ago. 

 

I think it might be related to this issue: https://forums.codemasters.com/topic/48082-stadiakeyboard-key-losing-function/

Hi,

I've got two Stadia controllers, and got the same issue in both! Even on the one controller bought last week.

It appends more likely when the controller is warm, after 15 ou 20 minutes of playing time. Very annoying indeed.

The only workaround is to put a drop of water or alcohol on the button, and it works again.

Contacted the support, and they are going to send me another controller. But not sure this will help. As for me, this looks like a controller design flaw.

I like Stadia, and if Google wants this new service to take off, they should look seriously into this issue, as this is a real pain for players.
