PS5 OFW 3.xx runs PS4 games up to 8.50
PS5 OFW 4.xx runs PS4 games up to 9.00

PS4 backported FPKGs work perfectly on PS5.

To determine your OFW version:
Go to settings > system > console information.

21.02-04.03.00.00-00.00.00.0.1

First BD-J + Kernel access exploit provided by Sleirsgoevy (29/9/22)

Note: Though there are three USERLAND exploits and one KERNEL exploit, there are no public HYPERVISOR exploits available to complete the full exploit chain. A hypervisor exploit was rumoured to be held in private that only works on <3.00 firmware, and recently Flatz confirmed he has developed his own 2.50 HV exploit (kept private) which was chained from a PS4 save game, and has successfully dumped PlayStation Secure Processor (27/07/23).

As of August 4th 2022: We can now install PS4/PS5 PKG games and updates (and by extension FPKGs) however official PKGs cannot be run unless you legitimately owned them previously digitally and have a licence for them on your current console, or if you own the disc (for update pkgs).

As of October 6th PS4 FPKG can be played on 4.03 OFW thanks to Sliersgoevy FPKG enabler!

Payload: https://gbatemp.net/download/4-03-fpkg-enabler-hen.38248/

As of October 21st PS4 FPKG can be played on 4.50 thanks to cheburek3000 porting offsets.

Payload: https://gbatemp.net/download/4-50-fpkg-enabler-hen.38279/

As of October 25th theflow0 fixes BD-J path traversal and native code execution for 7.61
https://x.com/theflow0/status/1717088032031982066?s=46&t=PIYQV4jmWEyCbVfx3Nx26g

As of November 4th ktuff is fixed for 4.51:

Payload: https://gbatemp.net/download/fpkg-enabler-4-51-hen.38306/

Nov 7th PS5 backups loaded via Itemzflow by Lightningmodz and Echostretch. Fully decrypted dumps require system files bundled into them in order to run without crashing with Libhijacker (no hen required), details here: https://gbatemp.net/threads/ps5-exploit-guide.613891/page-109#post-10290677

As of November 30th ps5debug has been released by SiSTR0: https://github.com/GoldHEN/ps5debug
Mirror: https://gbatemp.net/download/ps5debug.38333/

Dec 1st: first PS5 trainer (Dark Souls) is completed ready for the imminent release of REAPER Multi Trainer II by CTN.

Dec 25th: PS5 back up loading via ITEMZFLOW now released: https://pkg-zone.com/details/ITEM00001

As of Jan 2nd 2024 Sleirsgoevy has ported K-Stuff offsets for 3.xx firmwares.

As of Jan 4th 2024 LM had added 3.XX Kstuff to Itemzflow meaning 3.XX-4.51 is now supported for PS4/PS5 backups and dumping.
1: Never enable IDU mode.
If you do you will need to enter staff mode by holding L1 + L2 and tapping this combo: circle, cross, square, triangle, right D-Pad. Release L1 + L2 and you can access settings to exit IDU.

2: Try to stay on the lowest FW possible and wait it out for hacks.

If you are on 1.XX-2.XX do not update at all, it may take years but HV exploit exists in private for this firmware range.
If you are on 3.XX-4.02: the advice is to update to 4.03, but don’t be tempted to update to 4.51 yet.

3: PS5 FPKGs won’t work as HEN and HV/kernel patches do not publicly exist for PS5 content yet.

4: Installing legit game PKGs you do not own will not work, even if spoofed.

5: If you get stuck in a boot loop at the PS logo, this means the SNVS is corrupted (if hash check fails on boot this causes a “soft brick”).

It’s not “bricked”, just reinstall your current firmware RECOVERY PUP in safe mode!

PS5 system software update
07.01.01
-Fixed an issue in the Game Library where content would display incorrectly under certain conditions.
somehow, updating in rest mode got reenabled, but what's odd is that it rebuilt the database as it normally does after an update, but my game state was still saved at the point I put it into rest mode. every other time, it's kicked me out of the game to update. maybe it's like how the controller can now update wirelessly? I really like this. I might keep it enabled, but I did disable it again.

My ps5 actually hasn’t asked me to update today. And it didn’t say I’d missed an update, so maybe it’s optional?

not sure, but what if it was a "patch" update. the ps3 had a couple of these, and I don't think the console has to restart for those. the switch also had something like that a few months ago. it still rebuilt the database, but the game progress was untouched. I turned on the system to update just for cloud saving, but you may be right about it being optional. the thing I don't understand is how the rest mode options had download and install updates enabled again. I think that's the option. the only reason I had mine disabled is that I didn't like it kicking me out of the game, when I use rest mode a lot.

I wonder when Fony will make it you can't disable sleep mode updates? Wouldn't be surprised at all if hypervision gets cracked next or a few after becomes enforced.
microsoft already makes it to where you have to update even to go through initial setup. it's only a matter of time I suppose.

That is part of the reason I have my ps3 and ps4 completely offline unless I am there to see what it's doing. I know they could easily take control of systems and force update and more if they wanted to.

if they do what microsoft does with the series x, you wouldn't even be able to use the console unless you updated.

Yeah I remember them wanting last gen to always be online until they got a lot of people mad. Fony was probably going to do that also they just never announced it.

I'm always updating mostly for cloud saving. one thing that can be said about microsoft is that you get free cloud saving. nintendo and sony require an online subscription.

Well checking save files for modification is one way to find out if they have jb system. They have access to them and since it's free most people don't even realize why it is probably free.🤣

you only get 2GBs, but I'm not sure how many saves that could be. it likely depends on the game. afaik, you can't get more than that, even with a subscription. you also can't transfer saves to usb afaik. imo, the playstation 5 is the best console of the three. sony and microsoft listen to customers, unlike nintendo. however, the ps5 has very few bugs. they used to have some issues like the software crashing, but they've fixed them. the bugs that infuriate me about the series x are still present. nintendo has also crushed all bugs I found with the system.

I even think funny about ps1 exploit on PS4 and PS5 if people upload the save to psn then I am sure Fony knows who is exploit there most recent ofw.😂
I wonder how many people have been banned or soon to be banned because they wanted free ps2 games on recent ofw. Funny thing is PS4 if on 9.00 or lower don't really need this and ps3 is wide open for ps2 ps1 games.

that''s why I'm not doing it. I'm legit now on all three main, current gen systems. I really don't want to be a part of the piracy crowd. the reason is usually I don't play the games. you kinda feel obligated to if you bought them.

it's hard-coded for linux. I was unable to figure out how to get it to build with windows (an exe) as it's looking in zecoxao's home folder. changing it doesn't work.
