Add Xbox button function to the ROG Tessen

Level 7

The ROG Tessen Mobile Controller is great and one of the best controllers I ever used. Far better than the ROG Kunai 3 Gamepad , which was a bad quality one.

But there is a limitation, nearly to be a dealbreaker for me: I don't have a "Xbox" button available

And the ROG Kunai 3 Gamepad has this feature. So, the new controller lost a feature. An important one.

Why this button is important? A few examples:

  • I can't access Xbox HUD when I'm streaming Game Pass games
  • I can't access NVIDIA GeForce Now HUD
  • I can't access Steam overlay from Steam Link
  • I can't really simulate the Xbox button when I'm using Moonlight
  • I can't access multiple emulators menus

And there are two things that doesn't make sense:

  • I have a Home button that is useless. I can't see a reason for that button to exist and I can't remap it. I press that button by accident and it existis my game. I would like to just disable or remap it.
  • And it is even more weird that I can remap the ROG button to change the rainbow lights but I can't remap it to the Xbox button from the Xinput.

This button is part of the Xinput protocol. There's no license to use it and even the older ROG Kunai 3 Gamepad had this feature.

Hi, I've moved it into a more appropriate section. ROG Care is for questions regarding product issues. Not having an XBOX button is not a product issue. The suggestion has been passed to the appropriate team, thanks for your feedback.

Man, that's sad. Almost a month and no answer.

If this is not a way to reach the Product and Developer people, then I can't see any value. For community-driven solutions, we already have the XDA forums.

No answer from Asus, for one of the most expensive controllers and phones on the market.

Hey, thank you very much for your answer MasterC.

It would be nice to see the progress of this discussion despite not being considered an issue.
