I literally accidentally jailbroke my PS4. I was fiddling around and assumed there was more I had to do.

anyone else jailbreak this shit? what can I do with HEN? I don't understand what most of the options are, in debug settings like there is a pkg downloader option and such. I installed a PKG file and it works. I hope my account doesn't get banned. Any other features i'm missing besides debug menu?

I'd pretty much like a quick rundown of jailbroken ps4 6.72 features. I've heard of backporting, is that just bringing 6.72 games to 5.05 or can games like RE3make and FF7REmake be backported to 6.72?

how'd you pull it off?
I assumed it would be a more involved process like installing cfw is. I went to the website in the ps4 browser and apparently that's all I needed to do. I just watched some random video about stability and didn't know that was the entire jailbreak. Now i'm kinda stuck with it and don't have any knowledge of the popular applications/package files etc used for PS4 homebrew/"backups"

You're not stuck with it, the moment you reboot your ps4 it's gone (until you run it again).
Check out the all-in-one guide for most info. But yeah if you're already installing & playing games successfully you're most of the way there.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
    for people with beefy hands.

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that's a long shot
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.
  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
