Hello,
there's a way to bypass minimum firmware's requirements for games and updates and to play it whit a lower firmware version?

For exemple:
I have firmware 5.0.7 and i can play God of War, but the latest update of the game need an upper firmware to play it.
What can i do?
Thanks in advance to all for the help.

Nope.

If you are on 5.01-5.07 you cannot use anything past these versions because: keys.

You can either:

1. Be happy with what you have. Free games and a promise of proper homebrew SDK.

2. Update your console and pay for games.

Hey there, thanks a lot for thecreplay.
I choose n 1, but i already payed for gow

Heh paying for the disc doesn’t mean you should be able to use updates on lower firmware.

There are hundreds of 5.05 compatible games from disc and PSN, 600ish working PS2 games and several PSPHD games (:P): maybe explore and enjoy those while you have the luxury of a hacked console.

There are those out there with 5.50-6.00 now who wish they had KEX.

You could always sell/swap your console to preserve one more system on 5.05 if you really want to use the latest updates.

I have an idea how you can definitely run higher updates on lower OFW.... but it involves you learning cryptography, ASM and/or Kernel reversing... you in?
