Congrats on your new job!
So hen 2.0 just tries to fix rest mode that most of us don't really use this feature on jailbroken ps4. Good to know that, thanks man.

No problemo. I will give HEN 2.0 a good test today to see if it’s any more/less stable.
IIRC (and I could be wrong because I didn't followed the development) it's not like the PS3 where the PS2 emulator was generic, instead every published PS2 classic for PS4 has it's "own" tailored emulator, and people tried swapping ISOs to see if their preferred title could run on it.
When you write an emulator you often start off with only one game that actually works and as you implement more features and fix bugs then more and more games will work. The compatibility rate is down to how much effort they put into it.
On the PS3 they tried to make it backward compatible without putting PS2 chips on the motherboard, so they put a lot of effort in up front before they picked what games would be sold on PSN.
With the PS4 they followed that model, so they didn't spend all the time trying to make it work for all games first. Just the ones they wanted to sell, although randomly some other games will work too.
We will be adding it but there is no rush. The only difference with Hen 2.0 is the rest mode fix and this is only 50% working.i'd love to see hen 2.0 added to this, including the ESP file
The 'rest mode fix' has solved the problem of games crashing when resuming from rest mode but 1 big problem still exists and that is successfully entering rest mode in the first place.
Sometimes when you try and put the PS4 into rest mode it will not work correctly and it will result in a black screen when you resume.
Because this problem still exists, there is no advantage in using Hen v2.0 over Hen v1.8.
Here's a useful tip when using rest mode:
When you put your PS4 into rest mode you can tell if it worked successfully by watching the LED pattern on the PS4.
Flashing White > Flashing Orange > Solid Orange = Rest mode WORKED and all will be good when you resume.
Flashing White > Solid Orange = Rest mode FAILED and you will get a black screen on resume.

110% this ^^
New internal HDD Linux payload (10XX/11XX only) also added as well, ready for next release (WITH WARNINGS).
ESP version.... probably not.. we shall see.

I've recently had a problem with update nag. I use the dns trick and the updateblocker but still get the update nag. Any help would be great as I really don't want my kids accidentally updating it
Yeah I did. I got it to work but if I have internet access I get a nag. Where as before I always had dns/internet access with no problem
Firmware 5.07 didn't have chance to become an online official update, only pre-installed on some ps4 so I doubt there's any game that actually requires 5.07 to run.
People have said 5.05 and 5.07 are same.

@siavash the info @ItsmeAJ has provided is correct, 5.07 is 99% the same as 5.05 and was only used in factory for a handful of models (most notably DAYS OF PLAY in Europe).
AFAIK no games need 5.06-5.49 OFW, its either 5.00/5.05/5.50 around that range of requirement.
Technically if any 5.07 game existed, it would be built with 5.05 SDK and require version spoofing to 5.07; all of which we can do on 5.05 anyway

I’ll sort it out, there’s really no reason to yet though. HEN 2.1.2 is now out, if it fixes rest mode then I’ll definitely update it
... let’s get some results back
So far all tests from NulledPointer do nothing to improve rest mode fix above what stock 2.0 does.
TODAY:
Beta testing a few new builds of HEN 2.0 directly from sistro today, lets cross our fingers a rest mode fix is in sight.
Also testing PS2 placeholder app from xDPx
Report back soon.
