My ps4 slim is messing up bad, it wont connect to wifi most of the time and when it does it only says the speed is 1mbps or lower and i have reset the ps4 and router multiple times. The power button has been broken for over two years and so I removed it and the motherboard where the power button was is damaged so theres no fixing that and i couldn't afford it if it could be fixed. The controller imput is also lagging super bad as well as so so many other issues. Thing is this all just started happening a month ago, at first it was barely noticable, now its so bad its unplayable and ive had the ps4 since 2016 and never rebuilt the database once. now i desperetly need to so how can i rebuild database without the power button and why did they remove the option to rebuild database from settings? How can I enter safe mode without the power button or the funds to repair it?

@SeventhFairy If you plug your controller in with a USB cable and then press and hold the PS button as though it were the console's power button, your PS4 should reboot itself in safe mode.

I read that online but tried many times and it never worked. I'm gonna have to get a new ps4 if I can find one that's in my budget which is underb300usd. Thanks though.
