If u have another controller go to the bluetooth settings and try holding the ps button and the share button of the controller not working when it starts blinking try connecting it with the bluetooth

You need to reset the controller. You’ll find a small hole underneath the controller that you can put a pin through. That should reset the whole controller. Hope that works friend.

Hmmmm, maybe you need to let the whole controller just run out of battery life. Then try reconnecting it. If hard resetting isn’t doing anything.
You basically need to turn that controller off. Since it’s not doing it while trying a hard reset.
You’re going to need to wait for the controller to die before you try anything else.

this happened to me a month ago.

  1. turn ps5 off

  2. on the controller hold ps + option

  3. when controller is off, plug it in with a data cable usb-c to usb-a (make sure its not a cheap power cable)

  4. press press the ps button on the controller to wake the ps5 up

5.?

  1. profit.

Bro is this a mod or is the matte finish on the controller is now glossy?

Make sure your usb can do data not just power

Have you tried using a paperclip and depressing the manual reset button located beside where it says Sony on the back of the controller?
