Yeah sorry AI = IA in french

Artificial Intelligence = Intelligence Artificielle.

In French, don't nouns always come with an article? So, "L'intelligence artificielle".

Well either way, it's all automatic implementation really.

Does anyone know if these backups have an activated account that's been able to move saves to USB and back to the console?

For awhile I thought AI meant Adobe Illustrator since that was their application icon was. I still don't like abbreviations or acronyms since many of them can mean multiple things.

LUA games are out of scope and probably will never be patched according to hackerone

Just because you can't submit it to hackerone doesn't mean Sony won't eventually patch it.

No they don’t (according to master9)

And if you’re activated and restore one of these, you’ll lose activation.

That’s why I said probably. They aren’t interested in game exploits from a bounty standpoint, but the way saves are loaded would have to configured to ensure they all still work.

Given that we know flatz got HV and dumped PSP via game save, Sony ninjas would know this too.

Seems crazy it’s “out of scope”.

Can confirm they don't. I have no doubt the account was activated previously, at it shows the online visibilty options associated with an activated account. I would assume activation doesn't persist between backup and restore just like licences don't (unless maybe you already had the same account active prior and are restoring a backup from that same console).

The console does state that using a backup from another console may not carry over everything, I'm wondering if it's referring to the activation and licenses. As I think activation is per account, per console.

Also, was there anything to this? https://github.com/jeroendev-one/ps5-db-rebuilder-ext
I was looking to see if there was something like the db_rebuilder for ps4, this was all I could find and it says it works on the m.2 but it is from 2 years ago and a wip so has anyone already tried it?

Hi, thanks for the reply. Just wanted to know since it's easier to transfer the saves over the systemsoftware instead of using the PS5 Xplorer. I used Offact and have to use the Xplorer to transfer my saves since the system isn't activated. It's just a bit inconvenient but I always make a backup before I update to a higher firmware.

Okay so two things, first, I just tried to use my lua game to launch the exploit and it popped up saying "To use and play this game fully, please update the console" with an update later or update now button prompt. I have blocked the web addresses with my own DNS and it is a retail disc copy of the game (not demo).

Is this something that is known? There isn't any actual update for the game itself either.

And second, astro's playroom now says it's downloading an update whenever i try to launch it, no progress is made, no popup or notification is in the downloads menu. So what's up with that? And how, if at all, can I delete this phantom update download?

FTP in and remove any downloaded updates.

Which LUA game did you launch?

I had a look and I can't see any actual update files, I don't think it downloaded any since I have my own DNS active, but I wonder why it popped up anyway. I'm using master_s9's backup if that matters.

The game was Jinki Resurrection. I'm on 6.02 (wanted to compare stability between lua and bd-jb, so this was my first time launching the game on this console)

I've rebooted the console and it has stopped asking me to update the system software when I launch the game, I don't know if it's because I clicked "update later" the first time, but I'd assume it would keep asking me, this is with an internet connection too btw, again with DNS.

As for Astro's playroom, where is the location for app update downloads/pending located?

I'm the same way, it's lazy and shows a lack of intelligence. Just type out the whole thing so nobody gets confused.

It's not about the account being activated, you can activate an account offline if you already have a jailbroken ps5 but the save data transfer in the system software is by a connection first. If it can't connect to Sony it won't ever allow transfers. So if you never connected to Sony with the system then it won't have access to the save data. Perhaps a workaround can be found. Maybe an alternate server type deal. I have one I keep updated that I can use data transfer with but the one I got on 2.00 I updated to 2.50 but it was never used so it never got connected to use the save data. Account is activated but can't copy save data.

I've already found a workaround. I just use ps5 xplorer

I was actually talking about a work around for the copy to usb utility in the system software needing to connect to Sony before it can be used. I can delete the ps4 save data but can't copy it without the jailbreak and explorer homebrew. I'd like to see something like kstuff activate the copy data utility so it can be used without the jailbreak
