Andromeda Stardust Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 I have a spare PS3 controller I like to use with Ouya and Retro Freak. I got a Pink PS3 controller specifically for this purpose (the two black ones I normally use with the PS3). One issue I noted with my Retro Freak tonight is I have my PS3 controller plugged in via USB, but after using the controller, it always wakes my PS3 when I disconnect it or turn off the Retro Freak. It's super annoying. My PS3 turned on four times tonight. It'sstupid and I do not want my PS3 to turn on when I'm not using it. Is there a way to permanently unsync my controller from the PS3 so that it will not turn on if I hit the HOME button? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Press it in and it should reset the controller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. I plugged it into the Retro Freak and pressed the tiny button with a paper clip. Now I can hit "HOME" until the cows come home and not wake my PS3. I actually figured it out right before I read your post, LOL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
