PS4 controllers won't connect to PS4 Slim

[Deleted member 655544]

For some reason, my PS4 controllers (Dualshock 4s) won't connect to my PS4 Slim. I tried resynching, power cycling, trying to connect the controllers via Bluetooth, but nothing seems to work. Can anyone help?

I do have a theory as to why my controllers aren't working. A while ago I tried using Koopair on my jailbroken Wii U, so I can connect non-Nintendo controllers to the console. Maybe after setting those controllers up on my Wii U, it might've done something to them that caused the controllers to be unable to connect to my Slim PS4.

That might be a tad bit far-fetched, but it is only a theory, not a fact.

So, can anyone PLEASE help me?

Connect a keyboard to it and try going to settings, devices and turn of devices and see if that helps.

Thanks for the suggestion. Luckily, I solved the problem already: I had to use a different (and longer (wink wink)) USB to Micro USB cable.

Good. Those micro usbs can be crap. Also, longer isn't always better

Why are you angry?

Because short things are just as good as long things, if not better. My gf told me so.
