OMG I answered my own question. He already has the damn thing pulled apart. Some rumors are HDD issues but some people are not having success doing this. Multiple problems.
@SinjinSmythe: dude its hiliarious, sonygaf is on the edge of the seats, it was working, down, worked again and kid said he wanted to reformat and got all crazy but was told to restart and now is trying to get back to that screen. funny shit going on, its still going.
getting death threats lol cows man..... I think its the hdmi port out, its faulty. or obviously the hdd, right now they cant even output, I want them to shake the hdmi or try another cord.

the hdmi sodder connection bad, so cows look out for that one, and hdd as well, I don't know I think you should get your launch ps4 and launch into safe mode and hold your breath. this shit is classic right here.
But if I were him I would have waited till Friday to call Sony for a replacement since the console has a 12 months warranty but that option is gone now. lol
"Guy is streaming his broken PS4(He broke it by unplugging his ps4 while downloading DCUO which had stopped loading), complains to customer support for 4 hours whilst simultaneously being trolled by the people in his stream(Internet and all that), Ign decides that this is worth posting an article about. Finally through the troubleshooting in that 99% troll comments section he takes his HDD out, tries to turn on his PS4, gets an error, but at least it boots. He then puts the HDD back in and everything work. Guy then proceeds to pat himself on the back for being better than Sony Customer Support.... Then proceeds to once again break the ps4 by trying to download DCUO again. He is currently trying to fix it again, doing things such as turning on the PS4 while the hardrive isn't screwed in, plugging in the hard drive while the system is running, failing at holding the power button the amount of time necessary to boot in safe mode, and much much more, all while ignoring the Twitch admin's good advice. Then he finally listens to good advice, gets it working again, turns it off(to standby) and now it's broken again. He's now in hissy fit mode. Thar's your summary, have fun."
ultimadragon1337: Stay strong! You may not fix it but remember that what doesn't work for you will be common knowledge for everyone else and help them figure out what is wrong with future consoles.
katanaswordfish: Your Xbox360 said HDMI2 when it was on......
chaz4155: Holy faq
orangite: Take out the HDD in your laptop, use a linux BOOTCD or BOOTUSB to boot into Linux, Wipe the drive through a Linux Utility, then put it back into the PS4 and allow it to format.

netherscourge: !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!INSERT A BLU-RAY DISC WHEN THE PS4 IS ON- IT MIGHT FORCE A UI REFRESH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
virusoverride: Press and hold the PS button for at least 1 second, and then select [Enter Standby Mode] on the screen that is displayed. Touch the power button for at least 1 second (until the system beeps).If there are no checkmarks set in the settings under (Settings) > [Power Save Settings] > [Set Functions Available in Standby Mode], the system turns off completely.
loucmachine:

steelersfan__86: If it is the hdmi port (still my assumption), could we try to lay the console horizontally to change the pressure being placed on the hdmi cable? Additionally, is a disk in the console? Take the disk out, power off, disconnect hdmi, lay system horizontal, and restart system?

redsoxfan95: Sony can view your screen at any time, I bet they just shut off your PS4 remotely since you are livestreaming early and they don't want to contact Twitch to shut down your stream.
rampagehunt: smash it with a hammer you will make $$$$ off video
hazanko83: the INSTANT you hear the second beep unplug your HDMI cable then turn your TV off. wait for the 3rd beep, 5 seconds before you heard the 3rd beep you need to IMMEDIATELY plug the HDMI cable back into the tv, while keeping the tv off for 5 minutes before turning it back on. Worked for me

dcx4610: The fact that you are getting no video without the hard drive means there is a GPU, CPU or memory failure. The fact that you can't even get the 2 beeps to go to Safe Mode means it's not passing the hardware check to even get there

thegamerpanda: Can we see you face ? so we can see if the frustration is for real ?

dakondakblade: We know the HDMI was working earlier yes? So is there a way it COULD be the harddrive? WE don't know how the system itself is designed; so a faulty OS ( Or corrupt data ) Could be a reason for the system not booting correctly.Also; try just putting in the drive from the external hard drive ( cracking the case does nothing as it's a standard drive ) and see if it works.From what Sony said a few weeks ago; it should be a standard 2.5" drive

I don't know, there are some pretty stupid people out there. People like this guy are the reason they must put directions on toothpaste. But then again there are a lot of fanboys trying desperately to do anything they can to save their beloved deity.
