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).

Spoiler: Hacking Timeline

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!

For now the new game dumper can only dump DLC that is on the internal console storage and not the internal m.2 storage. That will be fixed shortly.

A game has to have patches released for them to show up. Not every game has said patches.

What game are you trying to run?

I would recommend to merge update as remastered using ps4 tools 41 should fix your problem. First try PS4 merge If that doesn't work try PS5 merge. There is a slight difference.

I also encounter the same problems with patches not click le/visible. Also when I press square it only adds them to favoriten whereelse it should view Patch Details. Also triangle does nothing.

Feg god of War ragna I got cusa34385 also xml is there and in itemzflow there is only the gray Box.

I delete everything from homebrestore and itemzflow. Even cleared /data/etahen but nothing worked. Plugins are also activated and also tried buttoncombo square + triangle where user requested to patch games: true came

Seems buggy. I have been testing this today. I did notice that if you go to a ps5 game and select info. That causes a grey empty box after when I go to a ps4 game trainer. I have to go back to a ps5 game and unselect info. I also have multiple trainer Id the same as some of my games and they don't show up or link together

So it turns out it is the version of game I tried the order with correct update and I'm seeing patches how do I use this PS4 merge any tut ty ?

you can find the file in your ps4tools folder under tools/work
there was probably some error and the process didn´t finish. you need to delete the file and start again. if the process was successful you will find the merged fpkg in the same folder as your original fpkgs.

Thats the thing it said it finished successfully and left no file now I chose the merge game + update - Remaster is this a minus sign or a forward slash is it saying this the option for remaster pkg it should say merge game + update + remaster..So I'm confused if it's minus remaster pkg or is that the option for remaster?

Sorry for this to sound so confusing..So there is option for Merge Game + Update or Merge Game + Update - Remaster ..What one do I use for remaster does Merge Game + Update by default is that remaster or is Merge Game + Update - Remaster ?

 

[Randqalan]

@acesmokemall for PS5 you should use ps4 remastered or PS5 remastered and counting the pkg game and update size together have 3 times the space to work correctly.

Space game update (this space was already used on hdd)
Decompress game update
Parcial compression of game
Finally the pkg merge

Probably you had a space error and sometimes shows Finnish when it's not.
