My PS3=>PS4 converter (white) will not connect to my PS4. The blue light will not come on. I have updated the driver and firmware to the most recent from the website. Can anybody help me please?

1542

Does it turn blue when you plug it into the PC and is it recognized as a PS4 controller?
Did you plug it into the PS4 without a controller plugged into it the first time? (the English in the manual isnā€™t exactly the easiest to understand).

1543

It plugs into the PC no problem and is recognized as a PS4 controller (I am able to play games with no problem on PC).

I did plug it in without a controller, and actually the first time I did it the converter worked (blue light+let me connect my controller and play). However, after putting my PS4 to rest and since booting it up again I havenā€™t been able to get the thing to registerā€¦

Also, when I plug in a stick with a player indicator light to the converter, itā€™ll blink for a few seconds and then shut off. Iā€™m not sure if Iā€™m missing something.

From the Stick-Lag thread:

Is there a new firmware for improved input response? Can we all have a go on the ride GOGO.Zippy? <3

@Shr33
do you have a white converter?
Brook will release a new firmware for improved input response on all converters

1546

Hi,
Where is the beta firmware for the white converter? I would like to test it too. (Is there a tournament mode version for the beta with improved input lag also?)

1547

Sony coming with 3.5 tomorrow, let us hope everything is working after 8 mins etc etc :smiley:

1548

I think someone already reported that he had the 8 min timeout while using the 3.50 FW beta

1549

@C-Sword @Toshin
Brook will look, test and fix to support on 3.50
Please keep in touch.

1550

It should be the latest firmware version, so you donā€™t need to do that.

1551
  1. Have you tried to reconnect the converter with your PS4?
  2. Have you tried to restart your PS4?
  3. Have you tried another port?
  4. So thereā€™s no light on the converter now either you connect it with PC or PS4?
1552

I have a problem with the new update ps4, my brook converter break at 8 minutes like before, will someone know,when it fix?

1553

@Johnnycan
Maybe tomorrow, Brook already started testing and creating patch file in our officeā€¦

1554

Thanks

1555

So I guess youā€™re working on it now then? I want to use the converter I bought 20 days ago :peace:

1556

@xybur
Brook will release a patch file to fix timeout on 3.50 tomorrow.
Please keep in touch.

1557

Bad luck :frowning:

1558

@Brook_Engineer

  1. Yeah I have tried several times.
  2. I tried a soft restart as well as unplugging the PS4 and plugging it in again.
  3. Neither port makes it work.
  4. This is the weird thing! The converter lights up/works perfectly on PC. Just not on PS4 (no light or functionality here).

@GOGO.Zippy @Brook_Engineer Thank you for tackling the current timeout issue so quickly. Can you give instructions along with the patch when you post tomorrow? I am new to Brook converters. :slight_smile:

Sony just needs to give it a rest with their attempts to block controller converters.
