Am I cooked? Ps4 1215a

Got it for free. Doesn't look salvagable. Would it be worth it to put a new mobo and mod it?

Disassembled my jdm-55 to change the buttons to white ones, OPTIONS and SHARE buttons appear to not be removable, being part of the frame. Manufacturing date Sep 2021. Is this normal?

Looking for replacement L and R button and triggers aswell as good replacement stick caps for JDM-055

I would say oem ones are the best but even the best aftermarket ones would be good

Help! Corrupted HDD

I tried to clone (with AOMEI partition asistant) my ps4 1TB HDD into a slightly less capable SSD, when I mounted the new "cloned" ssd in the ps4 I realized that it was a failure (I expected that to happen). The problem is that the old HDD with the system, saves and games is not recognized by the ps4 anymore. I tried to use secure mode and the only option that shows is "inicialize system". I didn't modified nothing in that disk. I followed the same procedure with ps3 and it worked. Any idea of what happened? Any solution? Thanks in advance

cpu & thermopad

Can I isolate the CPU of a PS4 Pro with a perimeter of thermal paste and then apply a Thermal Grizzly Carbonaut thermal pad which is conductive on the core? So it shouldn't slip off. I don't have any kapton tape at the moment

Ps4 11.02/11.5 progress?

Has there been any rumors or announcements towards potential 11.02/11.5 jailbreak exploits? Google got kinda flooded with fake articles and YouTube videos that are straight up fake, scams and malware. I'd replace my ps4 with a better version for my needs, but nostalgia and it being a special edition makes it sentimental to me.

Do dualshock 4 convex thumbsticks exist?

Title, I'm tempted to just get convex sticks from a dualshock 3, assuming they're compatible. I don't want stick covers or risers, the former slips on the stick in my experience, and I prefer the height of my sticks as they are. No I'm not trying to replace my stick modules (Yet, I'm looking at hall effect stick boxes) I'm just looking for the plastic sticks themselves. Google has been absolutely no help at all in this regard :P

What’s your preferred thermal paste brand? Cooling improvements?

Exactly what the title says. Getting ready to clean and refresh the thermal paste on my PS4 slim, not sure what brand to use. Also, is there anything else I can do aside from making sure it has plenty of air gap and fresh paste to help keep it cool?

PS4 Controller - Faulty?

Hi all. And thanks in advance for your help. I have a PS4 controller / DualShock 4 that after years of working successfully has started to have an odd behavior. The Option button stopped working. Everything else worked fine except the Option button. So I decided to reset the controller and it returned to work fine for couple of gaming sessions. But after a while, same thing: the Option button wouldn't work. So I did reset it again, and it returned to work normally, except this time for much shorter. Now, every time I reset it, and I connect it to the console with the cable it seems to work, but soon after it stops working again. Anybody can suggest a solution? Would opening it up and clean it help? Thank you all!

PS4 controller model number

Does anyone know what model board the red crystal controller has? I ordered a shell for a ps4 controller I found in a car I bought at auction it's in terrible shape but works perfect and the shell i ordered was wrong one, but wanted to see if it would fit on the red crystal one I have, thanks.

Large pkg games stopped installing ( i need help please )

My problem is that after I jailbroke my PS4 and tried to install games on it, I encountered a major issue. When I transfer the games to a USB HDD after downloading and verifying them, I face difficulties installing large-sized games. The installation process suddenly stops and crashes. When I check the menu, I see that the game hasn't fully installed and has an error icon next to it ( X icon ). However, I don't face this issue with smaller games, and surprisingly, I was able to install GTA V, which is a large game, without any problems. It's the only large game that installed successfully. I need help to resolve this issue.

conductive rubber jdm 030 (scammed)

wanted to replace the rubber pads underneath the trigger and L1 R1 buttons... one of the pads is a little worn out and only gives me a 90% range on gamepadtester.

turns out the replacement parts that i ordered from a random supplier a while ago absolutely dont work.

i remember when i bought the parts they said the rubbers would fit for jds 030 and jds 040.

im a little frustrated with the situation because that was unexpected... they look almost identical to the original parts.

and the parts for the action buttons and dpad feel like shit

Ps4 power supply issue

Long story in short I have a PS4 fat which I use on a daily basis or so, but this version has PSU with 4pin.

I bought a donor one which highly has PSU problem but this one has 5pin PSU

I looked online and saw a pic how to make 5pin to 4pin since one of them just has an extra GND.

Made the cable, every pin beeps as continous, and donor ps4 does not turn on at all, no signs of life.

With its original PSU it turn on then turn off right after.

I just wonder why it does not work with my known good PSU?

Any tips?

Dualshock 4 (JDM-055), 2 issues L2 move Right Stick, can´t calibrate Hall Effect analog.

Hello community, I need some help with my Dualshock 4. I have 2 problems:

https://i.redd.it/kywruytl53md1.gif

https://preview.redd.it/46dr7xtl53md1.jpg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c70e01729c5f4df5b4ccd09d7318c5659d7dfab3

#1: The first problem I noticed was that the right joystick had drift and I decided to improve it by replacing it with a Hall Effect analog, after the replacement it worked fine but then when I pressed L2 the right joystick started to move up, I read that if I blew into the controller the problem was solved (I only solved it like 2 times and then the problem came back) I felt like I did some soldering wrong and I replaced it with another Hall Effect analog.

#2: Finally the right joystick got out of calibration I tried like 3 hours to calibrate it but I got no results, the changes were minimal or worse, I killed this poor DS4 I attached some images and a video of the right joystick test in the GamePad tester.

I NEED HELP!!!!! Thanks.

I apologize for my bad English (I tried not to use google translator to improve my English)

Dualshock 4 (JDM 030) - is this shell real (official)?

Yesterday I bought the controller on eBay for 5 EUR. All the buttons work, the PCB is completely undamaged.

The front is jet black, however the bottom is grey / white.

for some reason the brackets from the inner plastic frame where the vibration motors usually sit were cut out by the previous owner. its a little confusing or suspicious.
