The PlayStation Portal has been a success, given the massive number of initial orders, but it’s far from perfect. When many of us first turned on the handheld console, set it up and let the updates download, the PlayStation Portal returned error105.
The error is seen on theSign in to PlayStation Networkscreen on both new and old consoles, and the message reads,Something went wrong. Try again later. Given that PlayStation Portal is still in its infancy, not much information is available from official sources or on Sony’s website.
How do I fix PlayStation Portal error 105?
1. Wait for 24-48 hours
From initial reports, this appears to be a server issue, as we couldn’t access remote play from the PC as well.
Also, many have already reported that the error has been fixed by Sony in the latest update, and they can use their PlayStation Portal now. We confirmed this with users from Germany and Canada.
If you are still getting PlayStation Portal error105, we recommend waiting for 24-48 hours. This is the maximum time it would take Sony to fix things!
2. Perform a hard reset
Press thePowerbutton for 15-20 seconds, wait for the screen to go black and then display thePlayStationlogo. At this point, you can let go of thePowerbutton.
This helped us fix PlayStation Portal error105, at least, that’s what it appears to be. But it could just as well have been the update deployed by Sony.
3. Contact PlayStation Support
If nothing works, the last option is tocontact PlayStation support. While we didn’t do it personally, others who did claim that Sony acknowledged the problem and was working on a fix.
Reach out to support only if others are able to use the PlayStation Portal while you are still stuck with error105. Because, in 24-48 hours, it should most certainly be fixed!
