[@mikexmidas]

Its Sony being greedy, I did all of this and my ps4 still boots into safe mode ,I even installed a whole new hard-drive, it was working for a day and then boom,back to safe mode

[@jayforeverrollin]

Yo Midas, I know it's been a year but did you ever manage to fix it or anything? Or did you have to end up buying a new ps4 or something?🤷

[@Red_Dead_Dad]

I'm still f^cking around with different methods to try and save my data. I'm not hopefull so i'll probably end doing what you did. Thanks for the video. I love that grass turf. I thought you were outside at first

[@COG4L]

update?

[@marcusrichter9464]

Thank you, that just save mig day

[@almadzharngallih7338]

Mine was on safe mood everytime i turn it on and i installed the reinstallation file, but after the update whenever i turn off the ps4, it goes to safe mofe again over and over, i got tired of doing it.

[@almadzharngallih7338]

I also tried removing the hard drive but still.

[@isim966]

Did you solve it?

[@Moa_Smug]

Maybe what u need to download is the "Update File" and not the "Reinstallation File" idk man probably try that u've got nothing to lose anymore anyway

[@Moa_Smug]

On the USB there should be a folder named "PS4" and inside that folder is another folder named "UPDATE" must be ALL CAPS...Then put the Update file on the UPDATE folder...Just saying just in case u or someone else don't know

[@TheSmallLebronJamesAkaMajor]

Mine says “the usb device is not connected” even tho it is

[@sebd1852]

thx if ur ps isnt turning off i had to wait 20s before mine turned off

U need a to use a different one, one that is data compatible.

The safe mode menu with the 7 options won’t even show up when I turn the ps4 on so idk what to do pleaseeee

[@Lander484]

Make sure your PS4 is completely turned off first, then hold down the power button on the console for around 7 seconds until you hear a second beep. Then the screen with all of the options should come up.

[@Moa_Smug]

​@@Lander484 Did that multiple times, nothing showed up on the screen. Must've been an HDMI port problem

[@speedzee166]

the controller won’t connect that’s the problem…

[@gracelynsaunders9813]

For those of you not getting the menu of options unfortunately If you can’t update with a pc your only optipn is to press the power button twice it’ll bring you to this menu you see on here & you’ll need to initialize your ps4:( I tried everything & that was the only thing that saved my ps4 but I lost all my data.

[@east-hero]

bro i updated for 40 times and i do everything but he still asking about updat do you know what i can do?

[@Lucid_-6]

​@hero idk if anyone else is having this issue but yk the safe mode menu? No matter what I press it says can't start ps4 and I dont have a external USB drive because I've never had this problem before. So no matter what I click it will not let me continue because I don't have a

[@Moa_Smug]

​@@Lucid_-6 Ur USB ports must've been busted if they can't detect ur USB

[@Ethanknows123]

That PS4 still has an Internet connection. You can save over Internet to another PS4 and then copy all that data to a USB drive and update it to your PS4.

[@ahmednaser224]

⁠ I tried it didn’t work

[@ColderThanIce0]

Thanks ☺️

[@jxstfootball__85]

Thank you so much😊❤

[@MichaelBoulewarejr-q7y]

Good job to you 🙊

[@PointProspector]

Nothing was working for mine and i looked it up to see if you can use a phone as a USB and it turns out if it's android you can. I downloaded the update file and renamed my phone FAT32 and tried it but it didn't work so i checked and figured out the problem. When you download the file it keeps it in your downloads in Google files so you have to go to the files options and click move to and then it should give you the option to add to a new folder which i did and then labeled the folder FAT32. After that i let my phone sit still connected to my ps4 for about 5 minutes and hit ok which shuts the ps4 off and since my power button doesn't work i use my remote to turn it on. I pressed and held the button until the controller turned back off and everything booted up as if nothing had happened. No data was lost.

[@adnxnbtw5441]

did your usb cable connect to the controller? Mines not even connecting its orange rn

[@samkay-hy9rx]

It says I need a lan cable when I pressed update using Internet any help.

Bruh this always happens to me I intialized my ps4 many times and lost all my data this sucks (other options don't work)

[@cr7xmotors]

And my controller is not working also

[@justinwillson6511]

No options show up for me

[@Lander484]

You have to plug your controller into the original USB cable that came with your PS4 to get it to connect. If you don't have the original just try to use any extra USB cables you might have. If the cable you're using isn't working it's probably because it's only capable of charging the controller, you need a cable that has the ability to transfer data as well.

[@Lander484]

In order to get to the screen with all of the options, first make sure your PS4 is completely turned off. Then hold down the power button on your console (not the controller) for about 10 seconds until you hear it beep multiple times. Then the screen should come up with all of the options.

[@gracelynsaunders9813]

Press the power button until you hear two clicks and it’ll bring you to that menu

[@atharvasagavekar5778]

​@@Lander484 how ??? I am not getting these options

Yo what can I do if my power does not work

[@TheTwitchkid2010]

Ima sub and like

[@lwazimanana7284]

It doesn't work even when I do what u did at the first part doesn't work

[@Lander484]

Your PS4 must be completely turned off first and then you need to hold down the power button on the console (not the controller) for about 10 seconds and the safe mode screen should come up. If that doesn't happen then there may be a problem with your power button. Or you may need a new power chord for your PS4 and you could try using a different outlet to plug it into as well.

[@Lander484]

Also, you have to plug your controller into the original USB cable that came with your PS4 to get your controller to connect. If you don't have the original just try to use any extra USB cables you might have. If the cable you're using isn't working it's probably because it's only capable of charging the controller, you need a cable that has the ability to transfer data as well. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iKqQmmeMgMt8eZI
