PS4 Pro games constantly crashing (ce-34878-0)

I solved this problem when my friends starting getting the error and I got it go check out my YouTube channel .( Plantain Caribbean gamer )

i had found its a bad motherboard you will need to buy a new one its ethier a bad daughter board on the disc drive or a bad nand chip on the main board means the Motherboards bad you will need a new ps4

Update:::

Here is a solution that might work. It’s at least worth trying.

1.       Disconnect from internet connection

2.       Start game that crashes

3.       Game should start now

4.       When you want to go back online reconnect to the internet.

·         I would suggest trying this first with an Ethernet connection not WiFi.

Error CE-34878-0 is a general error indicating that the game you are currently playing has crashed. If you receive a CE-34878-0 error, you will need to restart the game.

If you continue to receive CE-34878-0 errors, it is an indication that something else is wrong, and you should check to ensure your PlayStation 4 system software and the game you are playing are both up to date. Follow these steps to check for updates:

1. Exit to the PlayStation home screen.
2. Highlight the game you were playing and press the Options button.
3. Select Check For Update and allow any game updates to install.
4. After any updates have finished installing, select Settings at the top of the PlayStation home screen.
5. Select System Software Update and allow any system updates to install.
6. Reboot your PlayStation 4.

If you are still receiving CE-34878-0 errors after updating, try the following suggestions:

• If a PS Camera is connected to the system, remove it and reboot the system, then turn off Enable Face Recognition.
  1. From the PlayStation 4 home screen, select Settings.
  2. Select User.
  3. Select Login Settings.
  4. Uncheck Enable Face Recognition.
• If you have upgraded the Hard Disk Drive (HDD) in your console, please re-install the original HDD.
• If the error occurs again, back up your saved data, and then:
  1. From the PlayStation 4 home screen, select Settings.
  2. Select Initialization.
  3. Select Initialize PS4.

I have same issue. Fifa 16 and nba 16 working probably ,all other games crashing after start

Just swapped hdd for ssd with fresh software and only one game on console and still randomly getting same error, game loads faster though, lol

Have you solved it yet? Exact same issue for three months now

Same issue. I’ve done everything in the book. Won’t even load into Fortnite. Epic says everything’s good on their end and that it’s the console. Sony had me try everything and said the best they can do is for me to pay $100 to send it in for an evaluation. At that point, I might as well as put the money towards a new console?!

It’s crashing on Warzone too, but my other campaign games are fine. Seems to me to be the online multiplayer aspect that’s crashing it.

Im done with this console, the last thing i do before trow it to the trash is a reflow with the heat gun.

Me too bro alllll the time and it’s happened for years, so many fortnite losses at the final 2, so many awesome solo zombies games, so many UFC 3 fights, all ruined from the same problem.

Also having the same issue. Are there any solutions?

I have a pro an I can only play street fighter 30th anniversary an resident evil hd collection everything else throws that code is my system broke? Runs those 2 with no problem

I was having games crash to blue screen with PS4 Pro and I turned it off (not rest mode), unplugged it, and then held down the power button for 15 seconds. After that, I plugged it back in and didn’t have another crash for a month or two. I’m thinking that it’s getting memory dumps and by getting all the power out of the resistors then it reset itself properly. I use rest mode all the time and I think that may be creating those memory problems that create the blue screens.

my ps4 is brand new and im getting this error with disc games constantly i bought mine two months ago and now im being flooded by this cannot continue application error ive tried like 5 hdds you reinstall and initialize all day it doesnt work

I also think that you should buy a new one then. I do not know how i can help you. For example I prefer to play games on PC more than on consoles. I know that on PS4 emotions from gameplay are bigger but anyway some games are not available. I am playing now in Valorant, it is a first person shooter. It looks like CSGO but it is much better and I am using also valorboosting.com for my game account ( it is very fast and cheap service). I know that the game is very popular and maybe my info will be usefull for somebody.

I've been having this same problem. I initially thought it was a bug with the game I was playing (Red Dead redemption 2) and it kept crashing but now it does it all the time but I can still play some games like Fifa but only in 1080p resolution.

It worked perfectly fine when I got it but why won't it let me play in 4K as I have the TV to do it.

They won't say what's wrong with it as want to charge me £180 to fix it which is disgusting.

That's TTG Bullion for such a quick reply.

I had been thinking it was a motherboard problem but then wondered if it was a problem from a previous update as it was all working fine till last Xmas I think and that's when it begun playing up.

It's just strange as it boots up okay and games install easily enough but unless it's in 1080p it crashes constantly. It doesn't happen as much in 1080p but still will from time to time.

After looking at the price for replacement motherboards I think it's easier to buy a new PS4. I'm thinking of just getting a slim one instead as I've read a lot of people having troubles with the Pro’s and I don't really fancy being burned twice by Sony.

Hello guys, i think this problem is from update to 8.03 i have two diferent ps4 console and same problem CE 34878-0. Before update i dont have this problem.
