Rest in piece for all my brothers who had to go through the same thing🙏😩
its been doing this since april im so tired of it mannn
I was jinxed by the PlayStation gods
Becuase of this thing I will be getting the ps5 so yea I mean amazing but yea
😫my fornite(with 33 skins got deleted
Doesn’t even let me initialise 😂
Damn bro are all our PS4’s finally giving up on us...😔

Because they released the new one just like Apple does everybody
Exactly
Well now we have another reason why to get the ps5
Fax
Note to self, never unplug a ps4 with the cable to many times
Yeah..about that my power button if fucked so I have to unplug with the cable. Now my ps4 is fucked basically everything is fucked
Yeah..about that my power button if fucked so I have to unplug with the cable. Now my ps4 is fucked basically everything is fucked
My wire is fucked, every time I slightly move the ps, maybe just to plug my charging cable in, it unplugs the back wire. Your struggle is worse than mine tho.
The crazy thing about it is that all these years I been just unplugging it then the day I think about it dang this can mess up my ps4 then I was like nah it won’t then it happened
But wich option should i use cuz in option 3 theres 3 options
1. Uptate from usb storage device
2. Uptate from disc
3. Uptate using internet
3 years later and this video saved me thankyou bro

If this is some way for Ps5 to be marketed towards ps4 owners, then I’m switching over to PC.
It is
Shiit i already switched, trust me its worth it. console is ass on both ends
No it’s not it is an old console
You will need to spend around 2grand on pc to better ps5, and thats just on the tower, then you got monitor n stuff on top, I have been thinking of switching to pc but console is pretty good for money, had my ps4 since day release and this has just started happening 3months ago, it does it every 2weeks now so I'm going to buy 1t hard drive £45 and see if it solves problem.....
@@thedragonbornpiglet8399 hard drive is probably on its way out, I'm replacing mine to see if it solves problem, only £45 for 1t.

I would like to thank you for making this a relatively easy process! I was struggling really hard and had exhausted getting my friends to help me and being pretty limited on funds. This video helped me get through a process thats been frustrating me for several weeks now. Unfortunatly the end result was me discovering that the hard drive itself is kadonked up but I wouldn't have gotten that far without this video! Thanks!
How’d you know it was your hard drive ? Mine works but if I turn the PS4 off at anytime and go to turn it back on same thing happens .
I was so sad
Overrater
My sister fixed my PS4 but in the process I lost everything especially my bought games and In bought my friends everything gone it’s ridiculous

Thank you SO MUCH for the pointer regarding the original cable in 0:42! That just saved me a world of unnecessary work. Really, thanks!
*To the people who still get the safemode screen after update:*
I had the same issue, what worked for me was I turned off my PS4 and the held the ON button for 2 beeps then in the safe mode menu I chose "5. Rebuild Database". 2 minutes later my PS4 was on and working again! :) (note: before I tried that, I took out the HDD Harddrive and blew a little air on the connectors and put it back in, that could have been the solution too, im not sure, try both, HDD comes out easily.

Hi Alejandro Rivera, it sounds like your PS4 hard drive has gone bad. I recommend getting this PS4 hard drive replacement: amzn.to/34CeexS. Replacing the hard drive is EASY, you can follow instructions in my HOWTO video here: ua-cam.com/video/Sxw5OM3-C7I/v-deo.html
Zadius Tech Oh thank you for the Information! Also I have a question what other parts do you recommend I could buy for upgrade my ps4 (Parts that are in the range of 30-50$)?Thank you!
Edit: I watched the video so yeah I know this is a good hard drive

Yo I highly recommend this guy. Made it so easy.
So my brother is the actual owner of the PS4 and since I'm a computer *sabie he assumed I would be able to figure this out with no gaming experience lol. I had gone to the PS website simply to download the latest software and saved it on a flashdrive and gave it to him. He came back with the PS4, cords, and flashdrive for me to figure it out. I tried on my own and was like WTH can be so complicated with this. Well it was frustrating more than anything until I came across this video and had me literally doing checking off a list of possible things that were the problem. I literally started off with a random controller cable and that was my first issue until my alexa cord work since brother didn't provide the right cable.
This took me about 20 to 30 min right before work and I even had a moment to write this down. Thanks so much!

I have no idea who you are but now you are the best superhero I have ever seen
Thanks for dropping a comment!
Omg, thank you so much.
It worked on option 4 for me, I guess I'm one of the lucky ones. TBH my ps4 is old and only this year did I realise it had a "red ring of death warning" along with this warning right now. Very hot here in the UK this year. My ps4 has served me very well and just when I thought it had finally given up. You were the hero I didn't know I needed.
Here's to 54 more years of ps4. When the price of controllers will be even higher with inflation.
But seriously thank you.
How long did option 4 take you cause its been on 99% for like 10minutes now
The price of controllers already did rise. Ps5 controllers are expensive.
So I unplugged my ps4 from the back on the accident and it keep going into the safe mode screen then it says upload 7.51 I tried everything u said do it didn’t work and I don’t have a usb or a computer
SAme
F
Wtf why is this suddenly happening to everyone???
Ik it happens to me today
They want us to buy the ps5
Btw if you have a extended storage device all ur data will install back in about 30 secs once it’s plugged back in
nice then i can initialize my ps4
Yesss
