Title. Is there any way for me to get you some debug data?
I have a "Glacier White" controller.
@Excrubulent commented on GitHub (May 20, 2024):
Having the same issue. I bought two original controllers from a reputable big box store in Australia years ago. I have a very hard time imagining how they could've been clones in any way. They're labelled as Sony products and I really doubt they're knock-offs.

same issue yet im having original controller old one from 2015
@NanoPi commented on GitHub (May 24, 2024):
Were any of you using a Bluetooth connection at the time?
Using a Bluetooth connection is how I get the clone message on an original controller.
I don't get the clone message when the controller is connected by USB. Have done stick calibration over USB several weeks ago. (JDM-055, FW from 2017)
On Bluetooth, device.receiveFeatureReport(0x81) on line 112 results in running the catch block with e containing "Failed to receive the feature report".
@e3ndr commented on GitHub (May 24, 2024):
I was, yeah. Does the web tool work over USB or would I need to use the Python version?
@NanoPi commented on GitHub (May 24, 2024):
Web version worked for me over USB. Chromium, Windows 10.
@Excrubulent commented on GitHub (May 24, 2024):
Okay, USB fixed the issue for me, I had indeed been using BT, thanks so much. It might be an idea to add this solution to the error message.
@Doyle4 commented on GitHub (May 30, 2024):
When using USB it uses the data lines to connect to the controller board which is what allows it be flashed etc.
Using bluetooth will show connected but not have access to write to the section thats needed.
Although it says clone, pretty good that its stops anything from been flashed as it could cause issues or even brick the controller.
@dualshock-tools commented on GitHub (May 30, 2024):
With the latest version, the website should warn if the controller is connected via Bluetooth instead of USB. Let me know if that works!
@e3ndr commented on GitHub (May 30, 2024):
Can confirm that using USB fixed the issue for me! Thanks for the hard work @dualshock-tools. I'll check the bluetooth warning in a couple of days. Feel free to close this :)
@Excrubulent commented on GitHub (May 30, 2024):
Just checked the BT message, and I got "Please connect the device using a USB cable." Nice work!
