    Sony Told Me some PlayStations will have an issue with the Bluetooth receiver malfunctioning not allowing controllers to sync up ! What i ended up doing was sending my PlayStation off to Sony for repair because i was still in factory warranty! And they fixed it for me for free all i needed was a copy of my receipt 🧾 ! Sadly i never found a fix on my own i had tried everything!

      I feel for anyone going through this issue because if your out of warranty you kinda stuck with a useless system until it decides to work again ! I HAVE HEAED OF PEOPLE USING A FRIENDS CONTROLLER AND IT WORKING so they just end up trading controllers !

      I literally just had the same problem but fixed it by doing this!
      1. Go to Setting›Devices›Bluetooth Devices›
      2. Hold share button for 5 seconds
      3. (Still holding share) hold down PlayStation button in middle until light blinks white really fast
      4. Look and screen and click the controller you are trying to connect.
      It should be the last choice on the Bluetooth list and should connect automatically.

    - 3 go to Bluetooth devices
    - 4 select the DualShock (without the green circle);
    - 5 press option;
    - 6 select forget device;
    - 7 reset button 10 sec (behind controller);
    - 8 press PS-button & share at the same time;
    - 9 wait a few seconds;
    - 10 DualShock appears;
    - 11 Press DualShock (with the one working or with the keyboard);
    - 12 Press connect;
    - 13 DONE!! :D

  • @aubainsnipe94nyc
    @aubainsnipe94nyc 4 года назад +11

    I had the same issue too. This is what I recommend doing, 1) make sure your ps4 is on. 2) connect your ps4 controller with an USB cable. 3) while your ps4 is connected and your controller, unplug the cable connecting your ps4 on the back. (that would turn off your PS4 and make sure your controller is connected as well..) 4) plug back that cable and turn on your PS4 using your controller (your screen is going to be in reboot mode). 5) wait until its done and then press your PS4 controller home bottom. It should work now. It did for me.

    Have your charger cable inside the control,unplug the console,plug it back in, and then dont touch the control at all, turn on the ps4 from the console (not the control) and then wait until the control flashes yellow twice or three times and im pretty sure your good.

  • @ito0b
    @ito0b 4 года назад +15

    When the WiFi/Bluetooth module goes bad, your controllers will stop working in the OS but will work in Safe Mode. Replacing the module requires soldering. This is not plug-and-play. These symptoms could also be caused by a firmware issue instead.

    For everyone that's having this problem try putting the PlayStation on safe mode and to do that you have to turn off your PlayStation then hold down on the power button until you hear 2 beeps and then try plugging in the controller and see if you can move around if not like mine then you have to get another controller because the receiver is broken inside the charging port of the old controller and keep on safe mode and everything should work and you should be able to move around unless your PlayStation USB ports are broken.
    Hope this helps

I tried to reset, use different cables, initialize, boot in safe mode, connect new remotes, brand new controllers, take out the power cord ! Erase my ps4, leave it plugged overnight even for a week, and it never Sync or connected to my ps4 THERES NOTHING YOU CAN DO !

      4 years late but here's my solution. No cable nessecary.
      What you need:
      -Keyboard
      -Controller
      -access to a home screen
      What you do:
      -Plug in keyboard, the scheme is the following:
      Esc - back
      F3 - Dual Shock 4 Options button
      Prt Sc/SysRq - DS4 Share button
      Pause/Break - moves you back to inserted disc in the main menu
      Backspace - back
      Enter- enter
      Arrow keys - moving in menus
      -Get to an account's main menu somehow
      -Use the arrow keys to go to your settings
      -Go to Devices
      -Bluetooth Devices
      -Hit Enter on whatever you see
      -Hit F3 to Forget Device
      -Clear the menu of all devices
      Connection time:
      -Hold the PS & Share button at the same time
      -Hold until the light bar starts flashing rapidly like you're being pulled over
      -Use keyboard to approve whatever pops up on screen

    Found it… remote play ur ps4, go to Bluetooth devices, on controller hold power and share til it blinks then go back to remote play and select the controller you’re trying to use. On the selection screen there should be almost transparent dots to the left of the devices. The one that doesn’t have a dot next to it is most likely the controller you’re trying to use.

      Sadly you had to already have the app connected to your PS4 before the de sync occurs. Once you’ve connected with your phone before you should be good to just download the app and sign up. If you haven’t this method will most likely not help. If there was a way to connect your phone without the controller it’s unknown to me.

    I finally fixed it!!!
    This dude probobly already gave up on the ps4.
    But to those of you who havnt gave up yet listen up: I had the exact same problem as this guy, seriously I might as well be the owner of the video.
    I tried every single solution out there, but what fixed it for me was pretty simple: this dude talked about how he tried every single usb cable with no luck, I did the same with every single cable I had at my house and it didnt work.
    So I went to my friend's house to try and use his keyboard and reset the ps4 settings.
    It didnt read the keyboard as well😅.
    But I saw an orange JBL cable laying over there and finally the ps4 could sync with the controllers!
    My original ps4 usb cable wasnt able to do that, but that JBL cable was!
    So my seggustion before you give up hope, try other usb cables, try to borrow your friend's JBL cable if you dont have one.
    The one my friend has came with a JBL speaker he got in the the packge just letting y'all know

    4. Look and screen and click the controller you are trying to connect.

    What works for me is to have your ps4 on. Have the controller plugged in. Push the reset button in the back for 10 seconds while the ps4 is still on. Then completely shut off your ps4. Turn the ps4 back on by holding down the playstation button on your controller. Your controller should connect and your ps4 should turn on.

    4 years late but here's my solution.
    [EDIT: ONLY VIABLE IF PS4 BOOTS INTO AN ACCOUNT & NOT AT SELECTION (or if there's a spare working controller)]
    No cable nessecary.
    What you need:
    -Keyboard
    -Controller
    What you do:
    -Plug in keyboard, the scheme is the following:
    Esc - back
    F3 - Dual Shock 4 Options button
    Prt Sc/SysRq - DS4 Share button
    Pause/Break - moves you back to inserted disc in the main menu
    Backspace - back
    Enter- enter
    Arrow keys - moving in menus
    -Get to an account's main menu somehow
    -Use the arrow keys to go to your settings
    -Go to Devices
    -Bluetooth Devices
    -Hit Enter on whatever you see
    -Hit F3 to Forget Device
    -Clear the menu of all devices
    Connection time:
    -Hold the PS & Share button at the same time
    -Hold until the light bar starts flashing rapidly like you're being pulled over
    -Use keyboard to approve whatever pops up on screen
    -Worship me every Sunday

  • @MrBmwe30es
    @MrBmwe30es 5 лет назад +11

    I HAVE THE REAL FIX
    In order to get this going you first need a few things
    - Access to connect your PS4 to a router with a cable to ensure it is on your network since you can't use a controller to connect to wifi
    - Download and install the PS4 remote play app on a computer (just do a google search for it)
    - Make sure the computer and PS4 are on the same network
    - Now that you have the PS4 connected to the network and installed the PS4 remote play app on the computer go into the the app and connect to your PS4 it will ask for your PS4 sign in user name and password
    - Once connected to the PS4 on your computer you know can use your keyboard to control your PS4 (Arrow keys to navigate, Enter key is X button and ESC key is back button)
    - Go to settings -> Devices -> Bluetooth device delete the dual shock 4 profiles that are there
    - Now but your controller in sync mode holding down share then the PS button while still holding share until the light bar starts blinking
    - You should see the controller pop up on the screen to be add and now you can use your keyboard to actually set it up
    Hope this helps it did for me after weeks of watching videos online, buy new controllers and trying countless cables
    If is does not work you probably have a board issue and will need to send your PS4 out for real repairs

I unplugged the ps4 from everything, let it rest for 10 minutes, plugged it back in and connected the USB to the ps4, pressed the ps button and everything started up just like usual. Pretty shitty to have to do this in 2020 but considering the way the first half of the year has been I'm not surprised. So try these steps and see if it helps, if not, light it on fire and toss out the closest window and never look back. If this thing dies I'm switching to pc gaming and Sony can suck it

    I’ve tried all the suggestions and then sum. Nothing is working. I’ve even tried a keyboard and ps4 dvd remote still nothing. Any new suggestions? I’m starting to lose my faith in Sony products in general.

    There is a small micro fuse on the PS4 motherboard that can blow, if it does, your USB will stop working, no charging or connecting and you have to replace the micro fuse.

    what you do is hold the share button and a PlayStation button at the same time for five seconds your controller will start to Flash and if you have another controller that is connected to your PS4 go to settings and then go to devices and then click on Bluetooth device and you will see Dualshock 4 controller at the bottom of your screen click on that and agreed that you want to connect and your controller should work

      lol hell nah it actually worked lmfao. I didn't have any controllers connected to my ps4 cause I had them all connected to my other ps4. so what I did was connected my psvita to the remote play ps4 and did the steps you said. also I deleted some devices from the Bluetooth devices and it worked.

    @raman-ow4lw 4 года назад +3

    The fix for me was to get an original USB for the controller or just a high quality one. It doesn’t reconnect with some wires thats where your isssue is

  • @JashGamesYt
