Why do wireless PS2 controllers stop working after some days?

Yes. That's why I said it's not a pretty solution.
If you have a collection of a thousand games it could be pretty horendous to do it. You could try to do it from the console itself with LaunchElf.
how quickly can this brooks device make a connection once the console is powered on? the reason I ask is that I need to disable the modchip at every boot, and it must be done within like a second of booting up.
I didn't tried with a DS3, only a DS4, no input lag for me, I played Xenosaga episode I to episode III with the PS4 controller. Can't comment on DS3 people have said that dualshock 3 feel more sensitive than DS4.
I just got my brook device. I updated it on the pc, then plugged itt into my ps2. the dualsense connected. it even connects fast enough to disable the modchip at boot.
I ordered mine. Isn't it odd it needs to be updated? Is it easy to do it?

it's easy, just push the little tab to the other option (not ps2), then connect both usb cables. download the update, then click on the exe button. it will tell you to hold the sync button while you plug in the device, so do that. then click on "update game compatibility" checkbox and start. it will update and say it was successful once done, which shouldn't take very long.
Why? Is it because their batteries wear? If so, replacing them should fix the problem, I guess.

btw, remember to flip the switch back to ps2 before connecting it to the system. if you don't have the tab flipped on the pc or the ps2 respectively, the light won't come on. I think the ps3 and ps4 have to be connected to the input port to be synced, but the ps5 can do it totally wirelessly.
Every PS Move Navigation Controller I ordered doesn't work wirelessly. Does that mean their batteries are faulty, and if so, doesn't the vendor know about this?

So, do I have to connect the DualShock 3/4 to the USB port to sync and then can I take its cable and play wirelessly and if using DualSense I don't even have to do this and it will work?

you can play them wirelessly. in both cases, on the consoles themselves, you have to plug in the controllers to sync them, then they can be used wirelessly. iirc, this is not the case with the ps5, same as switch, so it's just like the consoles.
I just got my brook device. I updated it on the pc, then plugged itt into my ps2. the dualsense connected. it even connects fast enough to disable the modchip at boot.
Why did you disable modchip at boot?
I think DualSense needs to be connected to the PS5 via USB cable to sync.

I have to disable the modchip or I get a black screen with all options of the fmcb.
I don't remember, but you don't have to here.
actually, now that I think about it, I don't think you need to plug in the dualsense for the ps5 to sync, only to update the controller. I know I also didn't have to connect the dualsense to my nvidia shield to sync it to that either.

yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done -

I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer

Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?

@TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one -
@
Sicklyboy:
I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version

TwoSpikedHands:
@Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!

TwoSpikedHands:
I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it

@
TwoSpikedHands:
I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though

@TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway -
@
The Real Jdbye:
and realistically they wouldn't
be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves -

@The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)

when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying
