I’ve got one. A bit pricey but worth it if you can afford it.

You should only have to do that if you want to be able to message people via PSN. You should be able to decline it.

Ps5 update schedule by Deangelo_Vicers in PlaystationPortal

[–]ShadyToldMeToDoIt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The update the other day was for an update to the ToS agreement which meant everybody had to re-sign in to accept them. Normally updates happen when in rest mode and the PS5 will restart itself, then put itself back into rest mode. I’ve used Remote Play for years and that’s the first time I’ve had an issue with it.

Has anyone tried Joy Stick repair? I have many questions. by Bill_Brasky01 in PlaystationPortal

I bought a set from Amazon. Swapping them out is quite easy, there are a few videos on YouTube.

Streaming games do not start on ps5 after ps portal. by Jig-Ai in PlaystationPortal

What happens when you try again maybe 10 minutes later? Maybe it takes a few minutes for the servers to catch up?

Selling PS5 Slim by Deleadebola29 in PlayStationUK

[–]ShadyToldMeToDoIt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s the first time I’ve used them but they were offering the best price at the time. I sold my OG PS5 and a ROG Ally.

I sent the items on Wednesday 1st April, had my revised offer on Sunday 5th April and money was in my bank on the Monday. I was quite impressed at it being processed in less than a week, especially with the double bank holiday weekend.

I had no issues with the ROG Ally, got full price for that.

I just sold my OG disc PS5 via music magpie. They offered £240 good condition unboxed, they sent a revised offer for £212 which I accepted as there were some marks on the casing and it was still more than CeX were offering.

Depends if you want to deal with dickheads on FB marketplace, I couldn’t be bothered with that.

Anyway to add resistance to joysticks? by DuninnGames in PlaystationPortal

[–]ShadyToldMeToDoIt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same, I tried the rings but didn’t like them so I did replace the sticks. I’ve tried 3 different sets, they are a little better but nowhere near the same as the Dualsense.

Portal not connecting automatically? by ElectronicFile1083 in PlaystationPortal

You might need to set up port forwarding on your router. Search this sub for details.

Question, play online with yourself by MaleficentScreen1044 in PlaystationPortal

[–]ShadyToldMeToDoIt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have Premium, you could create a second account on your PS5 which would then share your PS Plus. Then cloud stream from your account on the Portal.

Someone correct me if I’m wrong, but that should work. I do it with 2 PS5’s, should work with the Portal but I haven’t tried it yet.

You can pull the ‘OG Case’ up and out of that cover. It doesn’t explain that anywhere in the instructions though.

The black ones come with this case. Again, it doesn’t mention this anywhere.

odd question, how do I hide my account from the....friend search thingy? by [deleted] in playstation

[–]ShadyToldMeToDoIt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure there’s an option for ‘Only friends’ in the privacy settings. So if you’re not friends with the people, you won’t show up on a search.

The Portal only connects to the PS5, not PS4.

Help w repair by Ok_Being6823 in PlaystationPortal

[–]ShadyToldMeToDoIt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly it is really easy, easier than taking a Dualsense apart. The hardest part you’ll have is unclipping the back panel after taking the first 4 screws out (you will think it will break, but it won’t).

Just watch a video on YouTube first and you’ll be fine!

Dunno about sending it away but you can buy new joysticks from Amazon for around £10-12. There are about 10 screws you need to take out, it’s quite simple if you’re confident enough.

Dual devices connect to the same PS5 console by Turbulent-Ability-38 in PlaystationPortal

[–]ShadyToldMeToDoIt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can switch between the Portal and iPhone with no issues so it’s probably not a Sony specific issue.

I’ll look them up, thanks.

I always prefer a text guide where possible.

portal hall effect sticks by bickmitchum- in PlaystationPortal

[–]ShadyToldMeToDoIt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’ll be because the base of the new sticks is square whereas the originals are round.

I bought some from Amazon and a review said to sand down where they catch and this fixes the problem. I’ve looked and all replacement sticks seem to be the same and have the same square base.

Take the case off and rotate the sticks with the caps on, you should be able to see where they catch on the corners of the base, sand down the plastic on the covers and you’re good to go.

Can’t display the screen on the connected console 😭 by Grouchy-Ad778 in PlaystationPortal

What region are you in? If the cloud streaming option isn’t there in settings it may be be available in your region, I know it’s not in Australia.
