I just got one during the Days of Play sale. My controllers are recognized and work fine on the PS home menu. But it doesn't register the buttons on my left controller during a game although the motion controls work. I discovered two things that make me believe it's a software issue and not hardware. One is that while playing a game I can hold the PS button for a few seconds to turn the controller off and then turn it back on. Now when I press the PS button during a game it behaves as of I'm pressing the L2 button (you can see the hand grip and release). Another thing I found is that by playing around in the accessibility settings on the console you can swap button controls on the VR controllers. I swapped L2 for L1 and R2 for R1 then returned to the PS home menu. Now I should be able to use L2/R2 to swap between the Game and Media tabs (instead of L1/R1) but it only works for R2. I still have to use L1 on the left controller so it doesn't even recognize that I changed the accessibility controls!

Hello Aceospades 👋 Thank you for sharing your experience! It baffles me that a year after launch that this is still a problem. Ever since I fixed mine by just staying stubborn and working the controllers in I never had to deal with this issue again. We never got an answer from Sony either why this is happening. Who knows maybe it is sometimes a hardware and sometimes a software issue too. I tried everything back then with resetting the controllers and re-pairing them but nothing worked. I hope you can get your controllers fixed soon. Because once everything works correctly, VR2 is such a beautiful system to play with. Thank you again for your detailed report 🙂

I have the same issue. I have to disconnect the left controller, then take a pin and reset it. I have to do this every game. I'm going to try his solution of booting with a controller, then switches to the vr ones.

Hello! This somehow did turn out to be a hardware issue which Sony never officially addressed. I got mine fixed by just being persistent with the buttons. But if yours refuses to work correctly even after a week I would definitely contact Sony and ask them for a replacement set.

Having a similar issue, everything works great outside of the game. But each game has a different problem. - Legendary tales, my L2 doesn’t work at all. Despite resets. - Crossfire Sierra, my entire left hand doesn’t work until I reset it. Then it works fine. - RE4 neither hand works until both are reset then it seems fine. Every game is “roll the dice and see what problem you get” for me. Sony dropped the ball horribly on this

Hello Shaobonk 👋 I’m sorry you are having this issue too. And it’s weird how this defect shows up in games. Mine was similar to yours too which makes you believe it’s a software problem. But it’s the hardware problem. I hope you can get it quickly exchanged. It’s a great system that didn’t deserve such low quality control.

@SamDansCouch6 ай бұрын
Hello Alex! that's the first time I hear about L1 and L2 being problematic. Usually it's the round buttons. I am sorry you are having issues. For many it is a hardware issue, the quality control on those controllers is questionable to say the least and button presses are not always correctly registered. Try pressing all the buttons over and over again for some time. I could fix mine just by "wearing them in" but if it doesn't work you need to claim warranty and get yourself new fully functioning controllers. Such a great system, but the controllers can come out faulty when being manufactured. I hope you can get a speedy fix and get into the games ASAP.

My left Sense Controller, while playing Pavlov (can’t tell for sure about other games since I don’t have any, other than GT7), seems to be acting funny. At certain moments it just won’t track where my hand is, or i will simply see my hand floating in game in the same spot for a certain amount of time. I always play in a correctly illuminated environment, they are always charged after every session, i have tried to unpair and re-pair them, but the issue is still there. Doesn’t happen every time, but it still bothers me, firstly because in a shooter game it’s pretty important to have my hands correctly tracked at all times, but also because it’s not what i paid 600€ for…
@SamDansCouch Жыл бұрын
Hi edomanurevolution, the loss of tracking can happen if your batteries are running low. The sense controllers enter a low power state and then tracking becomes less precise. Check your charge when this floating happens if that is the problem. I’ve played Pavlov and didn’t really have problems like this but I also didn’t play for hours. A fun game. The tracking should work though since that’s one of the big things that make this headset so great. If you keep having issues you should think about contacting support. We all paid for a fully working VR experience.

Hi LeroyJenkins781 👋 thank you for your feedback. I believe that in some cases the controllers are just not well made with the buttons not fully engaging.

Hopefully VR2 will get another push, become more popular and issues like that will become a thing of the past with more spotlight on the system.
