I'm playing around with the built-in Android mobile hotspot as well, with data turned on and off but I still can't replicate logging in to PSN.
For @Arclite, which feature specifically worked for you? Is it just using the USB Extended Storage or something else like Settings > Saved Data and...
I'm still holding out on updating because FOMO is strong but as you've said if there is an exploit released soon it would probably be only good for piracy in the early stage. I really don't mind buying games now so I don't care as much about piracy. But I still do care about homebrew. I am not...
So from what I can tell, you were using your phone as a hotspot and the PS5 was connected to your phone? What else were you using on your phone - like any specific proxies, VPN, etc?
Although I am a bit tempted to update if they release the VRR support soon since I have a TV that supports it. I don't think it will be likely that CFWs will release so we can get future updates while staying in 4.03. But we'll see. I wouldn't want to regret not being to jailbreak in the future.
Couldn't tell if this was a question due to the April Fools comment but no, I don't have a PS4 but yes they are legit PS5 games that I previously bought from PSN before I stopped updating my firmware. They were already installed but I had to reset my PS5 due to my Other files ballooning in size...
I've been searching and reading and looks like there was a way to bypass the forced update requirement on the PS4 to connect to PSN using a proxy and a spoofed XML to trick the update check.
Is there a way to do it for the PS5? I'm not really knowledgable on the URLs and payloads of the PSN so...
Crap. Should've searched for this before formatting my PS5 and restoring a backup. I can't access my old games anymore.
But FYI, restoring a PS5 backup clears the "Other" storage but it will remove the licenses of downloaded games and turn off offline play. My "Other" storage was already around...
Awesome, will try it out!
Edit: Nice, it's working great. Still no Redd for me this week though, my RNG has been really crappy. Only had Redd once since he was added.
Cool. I think NHSE added a feature to display which villagers will appear throughout the week.
