Hello there,

I’m currently running into some issues with my PS5 5.0 with rest mode. I am currently only using ShadowmountPlus and Kstuff both loaded via Y2JB with a 1000ms pause in between. I have a high success rate when exploiting and afterwards everything runs perfectly, but if I put the ps5 in rest mode after waking it will either crash or refuse to load the ps5 backup. Is there any solutions to this atm or is rest mode pretty much unusable atm on jaibroken consoles

I never used rest mode on my PS5 5.00 with similar setup so I can't really tell where could be an issue. I'd just run jailbreak every time I turn on my console, it's very stable on my end and whenever it fails, it rarely freezes on my end, I just have to reboot and try again.

The same thing is with the PS4 console
(disable options does not help and works)

"Thanks" Sony

My PS4 hasn't been an issue though same disable updates and it'd still do it. But the DNS settings worked fine for my PS4.

which just got me thinking, if you have ftp access, wouldn't sending a fake update file without any read%write permissions block the console from downloading as its already got the file there that cant be access...

Anyways the ps5 dns elf worked... now I've to figure out how these .exfat games work.

My itemzflow doesn't detect them or add to the list.

I reverted to an older version of itemzflow because it previously kept causing database corruption and having to r3scan again (I think it was to do with the home tiles).

Got backpork to run after goldhen with !3000 delay.

Im not sure how to get shadowmount working how to add it to the list when its elf is in shadow mount folder.

Tried adding
/shadowmount/shadowmount.elf

But it doesn't seem to do anything other than crash the console.

Well I can't seem to install the PS4 PKG for the Lego Harry Potter game, the installation process stops at 63%. Is there any requirement to install PS4 PKGs on jailbroken PS5s?

Now with the new user interface for the y2jb autoload, the source of the fw KPs is very clear, it is Kstuff-lite. When the KP is going to happen it will be always when kstuff just started its loading. Fortunately it's not common...

Are you running Kstuff Lite 1.1-dr (stable)?

https://github.com/drakmor/kstuff-lite/releases/tag/1.1-dr

Runs very stable here.

I found that when putting in rest mode while a game is running it will lead to crashes or gliches after waking up (FW 4.50, with game Split Fiction). When I close the game before putting the PS5 in rest mode all goes well.

Same also goes for powering off the PS5 when a game is still active, results in KP during shut down.

Also: Poopsploit 1.6 added to BDJB autoloader so now works on FW 4.03 upwards to 12.00

No, there is not solution right now...

I have tested rest-mode on almost all FW versions, 5.x, 7.x 8.x 9.x and 10.01. On this last one the rest mode is the one that almost work well between 2-3 times, but from the 3th time, the ps5 main menu start to lagging and respond very slow, so I have to reboot the console and start again the exploit.

Neat, but is this related to or completely different than the apr emulator? I thought the trophies could only work with that, but maybe not. Also, is there any chance this retroactively unlocks trophies you should have already gotten?

Awesome news, thanks for sharing.

Also, please note that according to Ark Sama (the author) himself on his Twitter, it should be available as a standalone in the next two weeks and he will also submit the code to Echo Stretch to be included in Kstuff.

I truly cannot wait for Y2JB-P2JB, there has never been a better time to be jailbroken!

Not related.

Not that I know, have seen and tested myself for certain PS5 games. New game is adviced. It's still beta. What I do know is that if you edit a save and load the values when bootting up a game trophies can unlock via the elf. So it does not have to be achieved in-game perse.

Is this random kp related in some kind to what was happening when the lua game was closed? I would also like to know how unstable the attempts of porting P2JB to Y2JB are rn, bc I'm getting cross signals from ppl around reddit and x. There was some people saying it didn't have an elf loader chained to it yet, then others said that the only thing was kp when trying to close YouTube, as happens to luac0re (?) so I am confusion rn. :wacko:

This is not ETAWhining pls, I'm trying to understand what is happening.

That should be the case. Y2JB goes up to 12.40. YT is patched in FW 12.60 and FW 12.70. You need licenses. < Just FYI;

SWRR is more stable than Lua it seems. It's under investigation. About Y2JB ported with P2JB. Just wait it out. No need to rush things. In a week or 2/3 everything should be more clear.

I'm reading up on the Hypervisor bug available up to 6.02, and I'm having a hard time understanding the practical differences between this and the 'Byepervisor' (for <= 2.xx firmware).

I get that the latter is the true "Hypervisor Slayer". But what would change for us common mortals when using one of the two (besides the limitations on being on such an ancient firmware for the Byepervisor)?

on 2.x the HV is turned off without any drawbacks. It's really proffesional.

The next one up to 6.02 is only made for linux so far, to make it work like "ps5 hen" some work is still needed but there will probably be some drawbacks like in 4.x

Okay,

so https://github.com/ps3120/BD-UN-JB/releases won't exploit (exploit failed, reboot message) on my fat disc FW 4.50, while https://github.com/Gezine/BD-UN-JB/releases/tag/1.1 does oddly enough.

Unofficial vs official... Alle autoloaders hevae different builds it seems.
