      Ok, I've made some small progress...

      It's just randomly started seeing my controller after i took out the new OS SD card and put my old one back in.

      It now shows the MAC and name correctly in the list.

      But once paired, like before... it does nothing and the PS button if pressed afterwards will not do anything. DEFAULT is the only listed inputs and configure controller shows 0 controllers found.

      😞

        Reset the controller and also selected "forget bluetooth controllers" and it's now saying no controllers found again...

        I really don't know, I've been trying to do this for 5 hours now... I don't knbw what else to do. I need help.

        Anyone?

              I can recommend a clean reinstallation of whole Recalbox 4.1.0 and then try with Pi 3's just internal Bluetooth only.
              On my Pi 3 it works great with the PS4 controller. - Also installed it at a friend where both PS4 and PS3 controller work perfectly.

              Pi 4:
              Sony DualShock 4 (2nd gen), 8BitDo Pro 2, 8BitDo SF30 PRO, Retroflag SUPERPi 4 Case, Recalbox 9.0

              Pi Zero 2W:
              GPi Case 2W, Recalbox 9.0

                I have tried with one upgrade install and then 2 fresh installs from the master build image

                https://archive.recalbox.com/updates/v1.0/unstable/

                Nothing works. It will not see it no matter what i try. PS3 controller works flawlessly, plug in USB press PS button and disconnect and it works perfectly on the bluetooth.

                  @dreamscape we'va talked on irc already, your controllers may have a firmware that doesn't work with linux yet

                    You need to connect in usb port for this gamepad.

                      Do you have detailled info which controllers will not work?
                      Is it maybe the "2016" version, which has the lightbar on another place?
                      https://www.psu.com/feature/31122/New-PS4-Controller-vs-original-DualShock-4--what’s-the-difference

                      I'm thinking about buying a second controller for my Recalbox, so if the fault is by 2016 version of PS4 controller, I would try to get the "old" version.

                      Thanks

                        None at all. But it should be the same compatibility as Lakka

                          My PS4 controller worked fine, until I cleared the controllers. Now I am having your problem.

                            I have 2 controllers. After all midnight trying to connect my second controller (Sony Ps4 Wireless v1) i recognized all I can try is useless. But now, connect my raspb, a usb bluetooth stick and my first controller (Sony Ps4 Wireless V2) and it works!!

                            Sorry for my bad English, i'm new in this forum and only wanna help.
                            Hope everyone can play with the v2 controller, i think that they will fix the v1 connection in the next versions.

                              @imkeisozo I don't have any PS4 controller. How do you make the difference between v1 and v2 ?

                                I can tell only visual thing.
                                In the v2 the buttons are grey and in the v1 are totally black.
                                But in software i have 0 idea
                                alt text
                                The V2 is in the left.

                                        @imkeisozo Just checked with @supernature2k : his v1 pads do work using the internal BT on 4.1

                                            @imkeisozo you need to wait for the 4.1 release.
