Heroic Bigpun 02/27/20 1:05:15 AM #1:	So I turned it on, it was working fine , I was scrolling the menus and stuff. And as per usual there's an update. Every time I turn it on there's an update. So I downloaded it, it installed, then my PS4 stopped displaying. It's just a black screen now. I can hear music but it's very cut off. Few seconds of music, then few seconds of silence, and so on. I thought maybe it was my HDMI and I switched it but it's also doing the same thing. Everything seems to be connected in the ports alright. I tried to boot it up in safe mode but nothing is coming up either. Could it be the update? Could it be something else? --- pUnny at his phone.

paperwarior 02/27/20 1:18:12 AM #3:	I don't suppose it's under warranty? Sony charges a lot for repairs out of warranty. With the PS5 coming with probable backwards compatibility, it might not be worth it to pay for repairs or a replacement, but that depends on your plans. --- "God Hand is the ultimate expression of the joy of humanity, specifically the punching part of the joy of humanity."-Shigeru Miyamoto <cite>paperwarior posted [p:934933918] in My ps4 is ...

SwiftyDC 02/27/20 1:20:10 AM #4:	I had this same issue, kinda sorta. Thought it was a faulty HDMI. But that wasnt it. Almost called to turn in my tv with the warranty but wanted to see if my TV had a new firmware update, and after searching for it and going that route my TV just started displaying stuff again, like nothing happened. This mat not be of any help to you but I tried connecting my PS4 with a different HDMI, into different ports, but the ONLY thing that would work was my Switch. It was so bizarre. Still dont know what caused it but Im glad it fixed itself. --- dilateDChemist <cite>SwiftyDC posted [p:934933966] in My ps4 is ... [t:78434630]...</cite> <quote>I had this same issue, kinda sorta.

Heroic Bigpun 02/27/20 1:27:58 AM #5:	https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=g3PKMsT5wF8 I tried following this fuckboys advice, the video Drew me in because I have the same PS4. The only problem is he also suggests going into safe mode. his TV displays it, mine doesn't. My PS4 is still functional, it just doesn't show anything. So i actually carefully followed what he did, even though I'm blind on my end. Like going down twice to select the second option and hitting x twice to select It and confirm it. It still didn't work --- pUnny at his phone. Expect tYpos <cite>Heroic Bigpun posted [p:934934152] in My ps4 is ...

paperwarior 02/27/20 1:31:00 AM #8:	It's probably not related but it sounds like the issue I had to send my Vita in for. Like, there was sound and control but the screen wouldn't turn on. But that's a handheld with its own screen. --- "God Hand is the ultimate expression of the joy of humanity, specifically the punching part of the joy of humanity."-Shigeru Miyamoto <cite>paperwarior posted [p:934934230] in My ps4 is ...

I work in retail after all Turning the tv on and off, the ps4, unplugging it for several seconds Etc But uh....I dunno what compelled me to do this, but I just simply turned the tv off a second time and that did the trick >_> God I hate technology --- pUnny at his phone.
