PS5 Exploit Guide

Backing up games isn’t really piracy since making a copy of a game you own for personal use is allowed under copyright law, which lets you make one backup copy for yourself. Piracy usually means sharing or selling copies without permission, which doesn’t apply if you're just keeping it for personal use.

Kstuff/hen enables homebrew first and foremost.

FPKG installation is not necessary for that.

if this a53 thingy gets hacked do you think its for all firmwares or just the 1.xx to 4.xx? I think someone on twitter said it may only support up to 5.50, i didn't understand why

I saw same post. That person is mistaken/wrong. If a53 security was smoked, it would probably be on a lower firmware (4.03) where the developers are. At least to begin with. Just speculating though...

I thought it would be available for all firmwares, because i don't think it can be patched since they said its a chip, but I honestly don't know. So I was thinking its a matter of porting the hack to the other firmwares kinda like kstuff

Yeah... And I honestly don't believe a lot of people would buy a PS5 and keep it in the box waiting for piracy

. It's not a good investment lol. People buy it to play games, I guess?

Not really an issue in my point of view, but oh well political correctness above all else

people are not very interested in ps5jb unfortunately, but it's not because they want something illegal... I think it's mainly because they can't play their legally purchased physical game on a lower FW. In addition, there are very few exclusive games for PS5 and Sony is already planning PS6... For PS5jb it's probably better to have the two consoles but that's a problem for many people, they'd rather buy a gaming PC and be able to play many more games for free (since PS5 is no longer so exclusive). For example, SpiderMan2 is cracked on PC, Kingdom Come: DeliveranceII the same and it certainly won't be long and stellar blade will be cracked too on pc.

but some people mention the convenience of the console, just turning it on and playing which suits some.
I still have PS5 in my drawer even though I can now get kstuff/etaHen from internet(FW6.50). Im glad I got a free PS5, it's interesting to watch the scene, the tools and discover new vulnerabilities... at least for me.

----------
Ps5 pkg and knives:

A murderer can use knives to murder a person, does that mean that the knives is automatically bad and no one in the world can use a knife because of that? No, knives are normally sold in cooking stores etc. They are used for cooking...so it depends on the method of use. That's why I think that the ps5 pkg can only be used for homebrew and legal stuff (some that require the ps5 pkg). Knife manufacturer is not responsible for someone using a knife for bad purposes.

I think you misunderstand how copyright law works and is quite different depending on where you live. In the US while you are allowed to make a personal copy you are not allowed to bypass any form of DRM (including encryptions). The DMCA in the US is so far outdated it's laughable.

madbrainx · Apr 10, 2025

Perhaps I wasn't clear. I simply said that backing up games isn't piracy. However, that doesn't mean you couldn't commit other offenses in the process, such as circumventing DRM, which isn't necessarily piracy either.

I think the attachment was self explanatory. No one was really talking much about Zeco a53 meme post so I assumed there wasn't much in it. Otherwise MW, Crump and whole of ps5 scene news would have been on fire. I don't have discord either but just posted what I happen to find. If it's wrong, someone can correct me

Your attachments had duplicates.

in etaHEN 2.1B, you won't have to edit the shn/json/mc4.txt files in the root of the cheats folder or reboot after manually adding new cheats with the new Reload Cheats option in the Cheats menu, This feature will make it easier for cheat makers to test their cheats pic.twitter.com/3Lkn01FBCF

Thats a pity there are not many cheats for PS5, except for some games and versions.

You could probably ask the same about the self decrypter. It's hard to say for certain what others might be working on behind the scenes.

DMCA isn't outdated, it does the job it was intended to do.

Which technically doesn't prevent you from bypassing DRM. Telling someone anything about how to bypass DRM, or selling something that bypasses DRM violates the DMCA. Actually doing it yourself shouldn't be a problem (but then how would they know?)

Except it allows copyright holders to abuse it. Nintendo is famous for that.

Has to be Blu-ray disc. You could try finding a local store like internet cafe or pc repair place. The owner might be nice enough to burn a disc for you...

Nintendo is incredible lenient.

I've been involved in emulation and preservation for over 25 years, they literally didn't blink when an unreleased arcade game (that the only known example is at Nintendo HQ) was borrowed, dumped and returned.
