    my bootleg dualshock 4 has not been working for months now and idk what to do :/


    i've had the controller since early 2020 and it worked fine. used it on different ps4s, phones and computers, but then a couple of months ago all of a sudden it wouldn't be detected by any device. i tried bluetooth and usb on the different devices, i tried resetting the drivers and i even tried to use the controller on devices i have never used it on before, but nothing works. when i press the home and share button to pair, or just the home button, it does switch on, but like i said, won't connect to anything. is the controller just not working anymore? :

    :)

    Can't connect Dualshock 4 to pc

    Dualshock 4 doesn't appear in the list when trying to connect to it with bluetooth.

    It also doesn's appear on other bluetooth devices.

    Dualshock 4 controller won't connect on Windows 10 PC

    Hello Darkslayer,

    Thank you for getting back with an update. Please let us know these things to analyze the issue.

    • How about connecting other Bluetooth devices?
    • Is this issue specific to DualShock 4 controller gamepad?
    • Did you try connecting the same device on different computer?
