Question Unwelcome Guests quest not updating?

So I'm playing on an Xbox One X and I've run into a wall with this quest. The first cutscene with the giant explosion didn't trigger at first; after a quick nap I went back to Jammer and the cutscene proceeded as normal. Then the quest updated and I went around my HQ (Sanctuary) killing all of the imposters, but after I took out the last of them the quest never updated and the game won't stop playing the "you're in danger music" even though all enemies are dead and my character can wait/sleep.

I've tried taking a nap, I've tried leaving and coming back, I've exited and reloaded the game, cleared the cache on my console, etc. and nothing has worked to make the quest progress beyond "kill the imposters". Have I missed something or has the quest flat bugged out on me? I've checked through the various patch notes as best I can trying to see whether or not this is already a known issue but it's quite a lot to sift through... any help would be greatly appreciated on my end. Thanks in advance!
 
There are often baddies waaaaaay far away from the main settlement. I had to hunt a few of them down before and they weren't close. Perhaps there's one left hiding out there somewhere that is so far removed from the combat that he's no longer aggro but still counts towards the quest completing.

That's all I really have for you though. On XBox you're unable to run console commands, correct?
 
I ran into the same issue on PC. The quest is stuck on kill the Disguised Minutemen.

I loaded it multiple times and this last time it finally put marks on the mobs. However after chasing down the quest markers it did not end.

I messed around with console commands trying to get past that stage, setstage 1200af60 50 and it completed stage 40 (kill disguised Minutemen) but then nothing happened except I was no longer able to talk to Jammer or Ophelia.
 
Alrighty, after messing around a bit I found the proper solution.

1. Leave your HQ area.
2. setstage 1200af60 50
(This completes killing the Disguised Minutemen goal of stage 40)
3. Return to your HQ.
When you enter your HQ area the quest goal of "Talk to jammer" should now pop up.

Like most other sticky quests you need to leave the area so the stage can reset or set itself. It is always best to leave an area so it unloads and then use the setstage command and load the area the stage takes place.

Using setstage while on the stage may not get the results you need because people sometimes do not get moved into place and such.

As for you Xbone players, right about now you are probably figuring out why I switched to PC for Fallout 4 after playing the previous two on XBox. Sorry.
 
Ugh, I just realized the quest ID might be different. So here is how you find it.

help unwelcome 4
That will return a line like this:
QUST: kgConq_MMC02_UnwelcomeGuests(xx) 'Unwelcome Guests'
xx = quest id
Then use this
sqs xx
That should show you are on stage 40
Then use the line in the previous post:
setstage xx 50
