My command buttons on my DualShock4 do not respond, even after a manual reset. The controller can still turn on the PS4 though. Do I just need to replace the controller entirely, as I do not want to waste time to try and fix it myself.

I learned that if your buttons are sticky, brush them with a slightly wet toothbrush. Let it sit for a couple of seconds then dry them.

A In Depth Guide to fixing DS4 Connection Issues.
1. Put your DS4 in pairing mode by holding PS button and share simultaneously. The light bar should begin to flash white.
2. Connect the DS4 to the device via Bluetooth on any of the following devices. ( PC, Android, PS3 )
3. Disconnect the DS4 from the paired Bluetooth device. Make sure you disconnect directly from the bluetooth device. Once disconnected locate a pin or a small narrow object and push into the reset hole on the rear of the DS4. Hold in place for 10 seconds.
4. Connect the USB cable to the DS4 and proceed to power on the PS4. Once the system has loaded to the login screen it will ask you to press the PlayStation Button. This will iniate pairing between the DS4 and PS4. The DS4 should now be fully operable.
Make sure to follow steps exactly for best results.
