Do you have a link to someone explaining the issues around their authenticity? Iā€™d like to read about them.

Also do you know of any other source with measurements?

  1. PS3PS4toPS3PS4_V17_20160419.zip Dropbox update ran it 3 times had a error the 1st time==>Make sure you donā€™t connect your stick with the converter while updating
    or try another USB port, another PC, shorten USB cable

I too am having problems installing the latest firmware (ZPPN002-A_TE_V18_20160408) for my green Xbox360->PS4 converter. Iā€™ve tried using two different Windows 7 PCs with the same results. I followed all instructions, put the converter into update mode and began the update. The bar fills almost all the way, then the device is disconnected in Windows and the update fails. When I reconnect the converter, it is still in update mode, showing as ā€œHID Transferā€ in Windows. If I try to update again it fails in the same way. Also I canā€™t get it out of update mode anymore by using the button combinations on my arcade stick. I was able to successfully reinstall the older driver and firmware that I had been using, but without the new update Iā€™m stuck with the 8 minute timeout problem. Please help!

1993

Try uninstalling the driver on the OS through ā€˜Device Managerā€™. Redownload the latest driver and install it. Then reDL the latest update and install it.

1994

Brookā€™s site doesnā€™t have any newer drivers available. The downloads only include the A firmware :frowning:

1995

@prodigyzx
please look newest manual file and follow it to re-try.
Itā€™s important in Step8, when you updated successful, please press combo keys to exit updating and check LED state.
To fix timeout issue, only update A patch file and donā€™t need USB Driver.

1996

I just tried updating again using the previous version, v1.6 and it worked! No problems, no 8 minute timeout. Maybe there is just a bug in the v1.8. Thank you tho!

1997

@prodigyzx
Great ā€¦

I read your message on the previous message. your converter 360->PS4, is it correct?
if yes, i think you used incorrect to update on your converter. Every converter have different patch file to use.
360 ->PS4 , please use [ XBOX 360 to PS4 or (Tournament)XBOX360 to PS4 ], V1.6 and 20160408ā€¦

I guess you used others patch file (Xbox 360/Xbox One to PS4 , V1.6 and 20160408) for dark green to update.

1998

Ahhh yes I think you are right! I must have seen the green and thought it was the same one. I see the difference now hahaha. Thank you!

1999

@prodigyzx
Keep in touchā€¦
Your converter already ran the easier updated processā€¦
in next time, you donā€™t need any controller

If I were to buy one of these and use the common blue PS2 to USB adapter, which one should I buy or is it pointless? I donā€™t really want to buy another gamepad for the PS4.
