I have a ps4 slim 2015b bad blue ray drive stuck on 5.01. I'm trying to update to 5.05 but everything I do errors out..... I've tried doing the "magic update" but anytime I use the browser I get "not enough system memory". I've initialized it 3 different ways. 1 thru settings and both options in safe mode. I've tried just updating but I get either a "CU" error or an "E" error. I cant remember the exact numbers on the errors but i've googled, youtubed, and used the search function here and many other sites but cant find anything that works. this is my 2nd system that has been on a lower firm but the other 1 had a working B.D. drive.... please can some 1 either lemme know what I'm doing wrong or point me to a guide/site/video that will help.... I don't have money for a new drive right now so please don't just say swap the drive and the main boards of the drive... because I already have that on the back burner. Thanks in Advance..

There were some recent work on 5.03 to handle this BD drive issue:

Unfortunatly, I don't think it will work on your FW 5.01. Maybe you could ask to the developer how it can be ported to 5.01? However, you will probably have to make the development yourself because I don't think there are a lot of people in 5.01...
