Just resoldered the pin into the RX socket and it still doesn't want to work for me.

On the same row as GND, RX and TX I also have the following sockets available:
2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9

And on the other side of the board I have the following:
RAW, GND, RST, VCC, A3, A2, A1, A0, 15, 14, 16, 10

Please let me know if I can use any of these in place of RX since I think I killed that socket somehow.

It's not possible to use any of the other pins. Your only option is to fix the connection.

Alright, I managed to get hold of a voltmeter to use for a bit. The TX and RX pins were outputting the correct voltage so I'm clueless as to what the issue is anymore.

Are you still getting this error:

Code: Select all

No controller detected.
adapter_detect failed
?

Yep. Also, my CP2102 arrived and using that didn't make a difference either.

Some suggestions:
  • reload the firmware
  • try in Ubuntu 14.04 (this will indicate if it's a hardware or software issue)
  • some CP2102 adapters are mislabeled, so you may have to swap Rx and Tx

Alright. Bit of an update, sorry about the wait.

I'm trying it with Ubuntu 14.04 with no avail, however I noticed that you can use Bluetooth on Ubuntu with gimx.
I get as far as when it tells me to connect my teensy, however I'm using a pro micro (mega32u4) and it doesn't seem to recognize it at that stage.
I've tried reflashing it to the PS4 .hex supplied in the firmwares.zip and then attempting Bluetooth but that didn't seem to work either.

Please let me know if it's even possible to use a pro micro instead of a teensy for the bluetooth route.
Thanks again for the help!

The bluetooth connection method only allows to emulate a Dualshock4.
There are additional instructions on this wiki page:

And the firmware to load on the AVR USB board is different.
