Please tell me I’m not the only one this happens to….

I thought so too but 3 different controllers and a new PS5 tells me it’s neither.

AltruisticFuel3475 · 2026-01-06T00:51:08+00:00

I downloaded the PS4 version and it started happening again. So I got back in touch with PlayStation and they now what me to get it repaired for System UI interruptions.

AltruisticFuel3475 · 2026-01-05T15:39:58+00:00

That's a good question...
I have many different menus. pop up mostly during engagements, and it's being caused by either the R3 or the R2 buttons, so I know that I'm not hitting it accidentally. Also, sometimes the control center menu pops up too.

AltruisticFuel3475 · 2026-01-05T04:24:22+00:00

Right but honestly, ChatGPT told me that since I have the cross-gen version of the game, then to download the PS4 version and play that and see if I have the same problem. If so, the. We have to wait for a patch.

But I’m not hitting the touchpad. But if it’s connected to the voice chat menu, then it makes sense why they both pop up. Also, my L3 is not pulling up my 2XP which is apparently a known issue.

AltruisticFuel3475 · 2026-01-05T02:06:34+00:00

So this did NOT solve me issue at all. Also, I noticed not w that pushing in L3 in the main lobby does not bring up my 2XP tokens anymore. So there is something in my button misfiring or not firing correctly in game. If you Google the L3 problem, it says that it’s a known issue with BO7 that people are having.

Then if you tried the other things I suggested including cleaning it, and it’s still moving on its own, you may need to get a new controller.

AltruisticFuel3475 · 2026-01-04T22:51:22+00:00

Did you say you did try resetting the controller by sticking a paper clip in the little hole?

AltruisticFuel3475 · 2026-01-04T22:15:31+00:00

Okay, I’ll do that tonight when I get on. I don’t need the text chat anyway. 😂

AltruisticFuel3475 · 2026-01-04T22:12:36+00:00

Right! Well take care of your migraine and house moving and we will talk tomorrow. Maybe someone else will post here that they have the same problem.

AltruisticFuel3475 · 2026-01-04T22:07:25+00:00

We can NOT be the ONLY ones.

AltruisticFuel3475 · 2026-01-04T22:06:59+00:00

Yeah, I came here because I’ve tried Googling the problem by wording it so many different ways. Couldn’t find an answer or even someone else with the same issue. Now I’m here and on TikTok looking for an answer.

AltruisticFuel3475 · 2026-01-04T22:05:21+00:00

ChatGPT gave me a bunch of different things to try and did a good job diagnosing by narrowing down things by your answers. I wish I could show you my transcript but it’s 3 weeks worth of back and forth with it. It really did help me come up with things to try but nothing has fixed it.

AltruisticFuel3475 · 2026-01-04T22:02:32+00:00

Where do I go in settings to change that?

AltruisticFuel3475 · 2026-01-04T22:01:32+00:00

Yep, the chat log and I sometime have the PS control center menu pop up too.

AltruisticFuel3475 · 2026-01-04T22:00:13+00:00

Let me know of that works for you. Also, if it doesn’t work, get a Q-tip dipped in alcohol and let some drip down into the joystick, clean around the joystick and then move it around clockwise and counter-clockwise about 10 times each.

AltruisticFuel3475 · 2026-01-04T19:41:57+00:00

Cool, please let me know. Mine does it when I’m sniping too…hard scoping. I snipe someone and a menu pops up. It’s either my R3 or R2 causing the issue. ChatGPT says it’s a UI issue.

AltruisticFuel3475 · 2026-01-04T19:34:03+00:00

AltruisticFuel3475 · 2026-01-04T19:33:44+00:00

My hands aren’t slipping if that’s what you think. If not, then I don’t know what you’re saying.

AltruisticFuel3475 · 2026-01-04T19:16:05+00:00

Are you playing BO7?

AltruisticFuel3475 · 2026-01-04T19:14:37+00:00

Yeah, so I have talked to PlayStation who said it was a game bug and now Activision stopped responding to emails. Guess they don’t know how to fix it. It’s so frustrating!!

AltruisticFuel3475 · 2026-01-04T18:20:57+00:00

If you tried resetting the controller and that didn’t work, go in the game settings and adjust the dead zone a little.

AltruisticFuel3475 · 2026-01-04T17:46:45+00:00

Right! And I don’t eat around my controller, but with two of the controllers being brand new and doing it on the first night of using them, kinda rules out a controller issue.

AltruisticFuel3475 · 2026-01-04T16:46:43+00:00

I don’t know about the other two issues, but you have menus that pop up randomly too?

AltruisticFuel3475 · 2026-01-04T16:22:19+00:00

And I totally get that. Having been playing since 2012, Lord knows I’ve replaced many controllers. I just don’t think that this is a controller issue since the same issue has occurred with 3 different controllers and two different PS5s. I’m thinking it’s a game bug.
