Major PS4 System Software Update v2.0 Available NOW

Once it starts the background download you could try pressing start on the game app and going to Information. If you can't pause from there then you can only pause before the initial download finishes.

Damn. What happens if I turn of the PS4 while downloading in the background? Will the download pause where it is or will I lose all the files and have to restart the whole thing?
 
Updated the system this morning. Played some Shadow Warrior and then put it in Rest Mode to charge my controller. Now it will not turn on. Pressing Ps button turns the controller on. Power button seemingly does nothing while eject elicits a beep. Any way to get this to power on?

unplug the ps4.

Dont see much difference, this update was overhyper, hopefully 2.5-3.0 by E3 happens

Yeah...ok.
 
Wait what potentially happens in rest mode?

I did the update, put it in rest mode and turned off the TV before checking that it powered down as I was leaving for work

Never use that stuff, charge your control on your cable box or but a dock charger, rest mode also takes tons of electricity aka light bill.
 
Rest mode is borked for a few of us atm.

I pretty much shut down my PS4 right now. I'll wait until a fix is issued before going to put it to rest again.
 
Sorry if I've missed it, but does remote play with (Sony) phones work now? Has anyone tried on another phone with that mod posted on xda?
 
unplug the ps4.



Yeah...ok.

Oh please you act like this makes PS4 feel like ps 4.5, the hype came from not having an update in a long time.

It doesnt even have the pause/resume feature hyped a year ago, which really isnt all that because it needs Rest mode who wants to wast Kws on that?.

not to mention the bork issues happening to
 
Wait,what's rest mode? What did I miss?

Rest Mode is just renamed Standby Mode.

I posted this a few pages back, but I really recommend doing a Power Off after you update. There seems to be some bug with going to Rest Mode right after you update, it corrupts the dB (which will rebuild).
 
Ok, so I'll leave the PS4 on while downloading Mordor in the backgroung since I can't stop it.
According to my calculations, it'll be on for 5h30m. My PS4 won't melt because of it, or will it? I really don't want to put it on Rest Mode
 
SharePlayed Sportsfriends and Tower Fall with a friend. Excellent co-op games that don't come with an online option, perfect fits for this feature, and it worked wonderfully, had a lot of fun.

That's the hook of the feature for me, being able to try your friend's games or help them through challenging parts is fun and all, but man, not needing online multiplayer built in to be able to do that is amazing.
 
Why is all of a sudden everyone calling it a "Rest" mode? It says "Standby" right in the menu where you chose it from. *edit* ah ok, I missed the last few posts. Yeah, never calling that a "rest" mode.
 
Nah, just new music come with each theme.
Hopefully we'll get infamous SS and TLOU theme soon.
Oh man. Tlou music theme would be insane.

I love this update! Finally something! Really bummed that the themes dont change icon color. So I settled with dark blue.

My most requested feature since the beginning and I'm choosing dark blue. Haha. I just hate that bright blue!
 
Sigh. Unplugging it allowed me to turn the system back on. Of course it had to check storage integrity and such. Doesn't appear to be any damage but the system saw fit to yell at me for shutting it down improperly. Yeah because I totally wanted to be forced to unplug it...

Sorry if I'm late to answer. I'm doing like 4 things at once, lol.

It'll force a pause as far as I'm aware.
 
No, all I can do is change the colors but trying to view the additional ones on the store leads to an error that says, content is not available.

:(

N.A store will update later w/ themes. Themes are only available in Asia ATM (aka Japan, HK etc).
 
Thankfully, upon a hard reboot and another database build, everything's working good again. The Playstation Live app is 1000 times better now that you can go through the list of all games, filter by language, favorite users, check out archived footage, etc. So much fucking better. And I never knew how much I'd missed having music on my system.

Ok, Sony. Good update.
 
This is frustrating right now. Firstly I get errors trying to get the themes like it appears many of us are, and now I'm getting errors trying to sign into the YouTube app. :(
