If you are waiting for 7.51 to be exploitable then it might be 2,3 or maybe 5 years later. And for downgrade, we don't know when and no way to know. it might be as well as 2,3, or maybe 5 years later also. Sell it and get 6.72 instead! You can always update from 6.72 to 7.51 when they found the exploitable.

guess you are right will have to ged rid of this console. I got it from someone, the problem is that the console update itself automatically so they have no idea...

well thats something i guess?

dont update to 7.55 just dont stay on 7.51
Waiting for the 7.02 webkit exploit like people are waiting for their stimulus checks. Bad joke I know, but anyway, as much as I'm happy about the 7.02 kernel exploit, I just want to ask if there's any news on anybody either developing or looking into creating said webkit exploit? Or is it more about waiting for it to become public information?
well someone is making a downgrade but with a chip

yea theres something going on telling that there will be jailbreak for 7.51 i saw a video about that
Oh, well, I guess I have no option if I want to play Last of US 2... had the game for over a month now and NEED to play it..
My 5.05 will be upgraded to play it
Just like others, I don't see a 7.51 hack any time soon, If there is one, the hacker will go with Sony to get a pay day before it's released, if it's ever released.

Pretty much this. Bounty's seem more important than the community to most of the exploit devs. 7.51 users are SOL at this point since its greed bounty territory around that firmware. Im not even certain if the 7.02 webkit will be shared either.Oh, well, I guess I have no option if I want to play Last of US 2... had the game for over a month now and NEED to play it..

@lilalex
I wouldn't expect a user friendly ps4 downgrade till the end of the ps4's lifespan, for now we just know it possible, but it can take years to make it universal to all users.

Or, if you have the money buy a second PS4. I am happy with my two PS4s one on 6.72 hacked and the other on 7.51 legit. Not everybody has the money though to buy a 2nd PS4 I understand that.
Well, with the PS5 and the new Xbox coming out I am not buying another Xbox or PS4. I really don't want to spend the extra cash right now. Well, if one showed up under $100, maybe. I do play more Xbox and Switch than I do on my PS4 so, if I want to play the handful of new games that are out that I need to play, I'll just buy them and be done with it(I should be doing that anyway !). NOTE: If I download a game, I will normally go out and buy the physical copy later as I collect games, I do this alot.
Waiting for a mod for 7.51 is going to be like people 5.05 who could never update or play any newer games till about 2 months ago. It was a REALLY long time.
Let's see, I am a top hacker... I have a *NEW* EXPLOT to the PS4, Sony will pay up if it's a valid hack, I could see $5-10K or even more. Or I can release it to the public, have to maintain it(and worry about getting in trouble), when the next update comes people asking me to make a new release, and lot of people being very negative and bashing me (as we have seen in the past) because I don't have one the moment it was updated...
I see why, Sony pays up if the experts give them their hack, as they don't make any money from a free release here. Most people expect a free hack... but, never think about the 100's of hours that the hacker could of put into making the hack.

Good point, but we are more stronger than Sony is or any company, do you know why? they making money because of us.
if people stop greed we can make bounty's and pay same amount or more that to hackers yo update their jailbreak, simple as that.
The downgrade that is happening now is not simple, it requires a full backup of the system on the lower firmware you want to go back to, so it's not useful for just anyone. It also requires removing an IC from the PS4, reading it externally with a teensy, then resoldering either that chip or a newly flashed one.
Yep we are but, WE are only a small percent of PS4 owners do home brew or hacking. Most people just want to play games, and don't care about the home brew/hacks.
As for everyone creating a bounty, it's a great idea, no question but, with all the eyes on the project, including Sony, and some other legal firms. If you were someone who created this epic hack, would you want to be the person who actually collects it ?
