PS5 Exploit Guide

PS5 Hack Status:


FW Ranges:
2.XX = HEN+Kstuff+HV = PS4/5 backups, possible keys exploit (WebKit: 2.50 best / 2.7X max)
3.XX = HEN+Kstuff+HV+Linux = PS4/5 backups, possible keys exploit (WK/BDJB/LUA: 3.20 best / 3.21 max)
4.XX = HEN+Kstuff+HV+Linux = PS4/5 backups (WK/Y2JB/BDJB/LUA: 4.50 best / 4.51 max)
5.XX = HEN+Kstuff+HV+Linux = PS4/5 backups (
WK/Y2JB/BDJB/LUA: 5.50 best + max)

6.XX = HEN+Kstuff = PS4/5 backups, HV+Linux for 6.02 max (Y2JB/BDJB/LUA: 6.50 best + max)
7.XX = HEN+Kstuff = PS4/5 backups, no HV (
Y2JB/BDJB/LUA: 7.61 best + max)
8.XX-10.01 = HEN+ Kstuff = PS4/5 backups, no HV (Y2JB/LUA)
10.20-12.00 = KEX + Kstuff = PS4/5 backups, no HV (
LUA)
12.02-12.70 = KEX (
P2JB/SWRR)
13.XX = No KEX/HEN/Kstuff/HV (LUA)

NOTE: Recommended firmware is subjective. Staying low is always suggested first & foremost. It is not recommended to update too many major versions (e.g., 4.xx to 5.xx or 7.xx to 8.xx) because you should remain low unless all you want is backups.

DO NOT UPDATE OVER 12.00!! P2JB can take over 3 hrs to trigger an exploit.

NOTE 2: Since 12.60/13.00 Sony has removed the YouTube and Netflix apps and has added 30 day expirations to downloaded software used for LuaC0re/Mast1C0re/RenPy etc.

Digital consoles will now need a new webkit userland to hack their consoles as of 19/04/2026)

Preparing Your Console:


It is recommended to either self-host offline or block these addresses in your router to avoid accidental updates or getting an update nag. Using the DNS method is no longer failsafe, as these are not guaranteed to be running 24/7.

To determine your OFW version:
Go to settings > system > console information.

Version string info:
Year.Half (1st/2nd half of the year)-Major Version No.Minor Version No.Extended info-Further Info.Retail/Debug

21.02-04.03.00.00-00.00.00.0.1

It is recommended to keep your console as low as possible to have access to better jailbreak stability and features. Stay as low as possible within the "Golden" firmware brackets that apply to your current firmware.

Current Examples:

2.00 could be updated to 2.50 maximum to retain Webkit/BD-JB/LUA HV + KEX + HEN.
4.00 could be updated to 4.51 maximum for WebKit/BD-JB/LUA + KEX + HEN + potential HV exploits.
5.00 could be updated to 5.50 maximum for WebKit/BD-JB/LUA + KEX + HEN.
6.XX-7.XX could be updated to 7.61 maximum for HEN using only BD-JB or LUA.
Digital/Pro users on 6.XX-LATEST cannot use BDJB or LUA without an activated console. Wekbit does not go beyond 5.50 for now.
Digital/Pro users or Disc console users on 8.XX-LATEST should consider waiting or selling/swapping consoles to get a lower firmware.
(No jailbreak is ever guaranteed. No developer is obliged to release anything publicly)

WARNING:

Only update OFW manually via USB by getting the firmware file from HERE and installing from <USB>:/PS5/UPDATE/PS5UPDATE.PUP

    Recommended host: https://zecoxao.github.io/luasauce/ (UMTX2 + Webkit for 1.XX-5.XX)

    Recommended WebKit hosts:
    https://zecoxao.github.io/luasauce/
    (UTMX2 with Lua and WebKit for 1.xx-5.xx)
    https://zecoxao.github.io/umtx/ or https://es7in1.site/

    https://sleirsgoevy.github.io/ps4jb2/ps5-403/index.html

  2. You will need a BD dive paired to your Slim/Pro console, or an OG Phat model on 1.00-7.61 to run this exploit.

    Viktorious AIO Auto BD-JB ISO for 4.XX-7.61: https://github.com/Viktorious-x/ps5-bdjb-modified-ISOs/releases
    (Alternative: UMTX Kernel exploit 7.61 JAR loader by Hammer83: https://github.com/hammer-83/ps5-jar-loader/releases)

    Burn ISO to a blank BD-R or BD-RE, put it into your console, and click on the [DISC PLAYER] icon.
    Highlight [PIPELINE RUNNER] then click option 2 [Normaljailbreak-etaHEN-UMTX1.pipe] to auto load etaHEN ready for ItemzFlow.
    Debug settings will be loaded, and the package installer can be found under [SETTINGS] > [DEBUG SETTINGS].
    ELF Loader will be running on your PS5 IP: port 9021


  3. Important:
    Up to 10.01 has a kernel exploit + HEN
    11.XX-12.70 has a kernel exploit but no HEN yet.
    LUA entry point works on the latest OFW, but there is no kernel or HEN yet.
    (A compatible PS4 game is required to launch the exploit on PS5. See below)

    Your PS5 console must be activated to use save copying for PS4 games.

    1. Insert your game disc and, as soon as possible, make a save file within it.
    2. Copy the save files to USB, go to [SETTINGS] > [STORAGE] > [CONSOLE STORAGE] > [SAVE DATA] > [PS4 GAMES] > select the game save and copy to a USB drive.
    3. On PC, using a Google Drive account, make a new folder with the GAME ID of your game, and upload the savedata & savedata.bin files to that folder.
    4. Share the folder, set it to editor mode, share with anyone, and click "copy the link".
    5. Join the HTOS Discord group: HERE type "/decrypt", select "FALSE" for including SCE_SYS, paste or type in the Google Drive link, and press enter. The bot should begin mounting your save. (If it doesn't, paste in the link again.)
    6. Click "ENCRYPTED" to remove the Sony PFS layer. Download the generated files and extract the folder to your desktop (you should have 4 files in there and be named dec_savedata_CUSA[GAME ID]).
    7. Using REMOTE LUA LOADER, open the savedata folder, copy the 20 files within into your encrypted save folder on your desktop.
    8. Upload the encrypted save folder (now with 24 files in) to your Google Drive. It should be named "dec_savedata_CUSA[GAME ID]" where GAME ID is your games 5 digit number, and set it to editor mode, share with anyone, and then click "copy the link".
    9. Go back to the HTOS discord server, and type "/encrypt", hit "FALSE" for uploading individually, and "FALSE" to include SCE_SYS. Finally, hit shared_gd_link and paste in your link to the original save (4 files) folder. (If it doesn't, paste in the link again.)
    10. When this is done, paste the link to the decrypted save (24 files) folder, and the bot will encrypt the files.
    11. Resign the files by typing "/resign" followed by your account name on the console, or PSN ID associated with that account if using the latest OFW.
    12. Download the resigned files, extract the files to your USB drive and overwrite them into the savedata folder on your USB or external drive.
    13. Copy the saves back to your console [SETTINGS] > [SAVE DATA AND GAME/APP SETTINGS] > [SAVE DATA PS4] > [COPY OR DELETE FROM USB] > [COPY TO CONSOLE STORAGE] > select your game save folder from the USB drive and copy/overwrite old save data.
    14. Load LUA game again, and you should see the LUA LOADER screen.
    15. You can use "SEND_LUA.PY" to send the UMTX files to the loader.
    (NOTE: Some games require manual loading of save game)

    On firmware up to 7.61, you can now load UMTX/2 followed by etaHEN by sending the files to your console IP on PORT 9026.
    On firmware 8.00-LATEST, you can connect with the REMOTE LUA LOADER APP to send debug notifications or FTP on port 1337.

  9. This method modifies the BD-J stack to allows BDJB to be re-enabled on your higher firmware console up to 12.40.

    This requires your console to be hacked via another method first to gain access to alter the files.
    (For example 12.00 needs SWRR disc to hack it first)

    https://github.com/Gezine/BD-UN-JB

    DO NOT REINSTALL FW, IT WILL WIPE THE PATCH AND LOSE BD-JB


Additional Information:


PS4 GAME INFORMATION:
OFW 1.xx cannot run PS4 games.
OFW 2.xx runs PS4 games up to 8.03

OFW 3.xx runs PS4 games up to 8.52
OFW 4.xx runs PS4 games up to 9.04
OFW 5.xx runs PS4 games up to 9.60
OFW 6.xx runs PS4 games up to 10.50

OFW 7.xx runs PS4 games up to 11.00
OFW 8.xx/9.xx runs PS4 games up to 11.50
OFW 10.xx runs PS4 games up to 12.00

OFW 11.xx runs PS4 games up to 12.50
OFW 12.xx runs PS4 games up to 13.00


(Note: PS4 backported FPKGs also work perfectly on an exploited PS5 with Kstuff)


You can install free/demo PKGS (legit pkgs) via the debug pkg installer, provided you have all the files/json/licences required.
(Astro’s Playroom has no licences and can be installed and played from official pkgs and updated inline with your firmware)

Warnings:


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 for hacks on that firmware.

3: PS5 FPKGs do not work. A hack for the A53 processor does not publicly exist to enable installing PS5 content as FPKG/PKG.

4: Installing legit game PKGs you do not own will never work, even if spoofed.

5: If you get stuck in a boot loop at the PS logo, the SNVS is corrupted (if the hash check fails on boot, this causes a “soft brick”). It’s not “bricked”. Simply reinstall your current firmware RECOVERY PUP in safe mode from USB: PS5 > UPDATE > PS5UPDATE.PUP.

You were close there. A donation is usually for tax purposes, because donations can't be taxed but the donator can get a taxpayer reimbursement. You didn't think rich people were just giving away millions of dollars did you? However, these are not donations. When someone gives money for jailbreak development that's called an investment and the investor does expect to get something back. This is a level of ignorance that tyrants require, And if you haven't figured it out yet, everything society demands is tyranny...
This isn't corporate America. This is more akin to patreon, gofundme etc where things can be promised on how and where donations will be used, but ultimately nothing is guaranteed. Anyone can just expect to make huge gains when giving money to something without any guarantees, but that's called delusion.

Are you the kinda guy who follows up on a $10 charitable donation you made to a cancer charity, to see if they are using it to get the maximum ROI, that they've got that sigma male grindset? because they said it's to help cure cancer but hey...all they did recently was buy some pamphelts, and cancer is still out there!!

Chill a little. You can't describe a tax write-off when you're talking about a small donation to a random dev on the internet. My point was also more about the entitlement of the guy spending a tiny amount towards a person who has thus far basically worked on stuff and provided it for free, like his rant about v19 in the same post which surprise surprise, scroll back a page...it's free real-estate.

But yeah, guess Zeco is a tyrant now guys...

How much we got to donate for the beta one that work with current firmware?

Ah, well you just gotta watch my latest youtube video on it bud, send me your ps5, preferably a pro or limited edition, and I'll jailbreak it for you with my downgrader, but I gotta send you the BD and the console back in a separate package, so you'll get the BD first since it's smaller, the console...later...

can i get 20% from the money you get from the ps5, we're talking about another ps5 not yours solitaire?
 
What if he’s run as far as he can?

TKs don’t run retail disks, so don’t run LUA games, so it’s useless there. If anything a phat retail on 7.61 is MORE use.
Impossible! Everyone knows that Xeco pretty much controls the weather with his magical powers.

As for the LUA, I can't comment on that. I'm using webkit. B)

Ah, well you just gotta watch my latest youtube video on it bud, send me your ps5, preferably a pro or limited edition, and I'll jailbreak it for you with my downgrader, but I gotta send you the BD and the console back in a separate package, so you'll get the BD first since it's smaller, the console...later...
Asking for donations to keep positing videos on YouTube is one thing, but asking for money to further development is an investment thing, got nothing to do with the location, it's business 101. It's not like the devs are asking for donations to keep them from working so they can focus all their time on development like the YouTube crowd does. They are literally asking people to invest in the future of the scene. No amount of mental gymnastics will change that fact.

I don't make donations. I trade what I got for what I need...
 
What if he’s run as far as he can?

TKs don’t run retail disks, so don’t run LUA games, so it’s useless there. If anything a phat retail on 7.61 is MORE use.

preach, brother

edit, anyone bitching about jose, how about you never use anything, including web hosts, that he ever made? easy. as the old saying goes "shit or get off the pot". get over your high horse mentality. man had a job to do, he did it in his own efforts. donations helped him get a TOOL. he finished, and let someone else play with the toy. instead of putting it in his attic, and fucking right off, and never replying to anyone about anything again.

but how about you go and look at his posts for the last week instead of echo-chambering your nonsese. GBATemp is and always has been a place for serious discussion about actual development. take your trash shitposts elsewhere.

no, im not a mod or an admin or anything to this site. just tired of all the QQ bullshit from entitled kids.

mods, suspend me if out of line. idc


one final edit, because i'm so fucking fed up with yall.

do you have any idea how many hours are put into even small tiny bullshit? sometimes like 5 hours just for a stupid animation to work. sometimes from 8pm until suddenly it's 5am, and havent even't used the bathroom or had water because so caught up with the code, compile errors, a fucking typo that was made, or stupid silly shit. it's part of the process. every one who has ever developed anything knows the struggle... the rush, the HOURS set into so many different parts of everything --(ACTUALLY developed, and not just cherry-pick code and slap it in to existing code).

you guys don't know what it is to code, let alone decompile, observe, analyze, think, resolve, and put into practice all that shit. it's hours and hours and hours and hours. between days, and sometimes weeks.

so let's say he worked on the project maybe like 4 hours a day, for a month. (mind you, i'm 100% positive he did TONS more, but just making numbers that are somewhat relatable and easy to understand).. 6 hours, at 30 days. 180 hours. which, again, is a super low ball. but we are using a very small amount of time, JUST so you people fucking realize. assuming he ONLY worked 180 hours (probably closer to 1000 hours, but let's not go there), but lets say it was 180 hours. test kit was, what $3000?. for 180 hours, the man took about $17 an hour. tell me, how much do you pay to eat every day? water, electricity, rent, car, internet.

LIVING LIFE (or merely surviving) COSTS MONEY FOR DEVELOPERS TOO!


\fuck outta here with all your bs

I'm not a coder but spent approx 30hrs or a week trying to figure out why i couldn't send payloads after exploit via LUA. It got to the point where I even created spread sheet with version numbers, hashfiles, different pc, cables, etc etc. Drove me nuts. This was all before common knowledge of problems with save files and other issues.

So imagine my problems and then x 100. That is what a coder will go through on these kind of projects ;)
 
GOOD DAMN, THESE FOOLS CAN'T EVEN COMPREHEND THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A DONATION AND A FUCKING INVESTMENT. NO WONDER TYRANNY IS THE ONLY THING HISTORY REMEMBERS....

Maybe they should stick to a trade like hvac service...

I would much rather then not even offer to do anything at all... maybe if they treated it more like the investment it was rather than a patreon donation then maybe people wouldn't be expecting to get something in return for their money... if I "donate" to a developer claiming they can make oculus work on playstation, that's what I expect to get, not some bullshit about how that developer lost interest after collecting lots of cash.

Give me some fucking college coding text books and I'll do this shit for free... no donations needed.

I like how that one mentioned corporate America, try collecting money from investors in corporate America and then tell them those were donations and they shouldn't expect anything in return.... they will sue your ass to oblivion.

New RLL update just dropped on GitHub to 'Fix ELF support in the BIN loader by assuming that the .bss sections is initialized by the payload'. Curious if this helps with the stability issues some folks have been seeing. Personally, PLK’s fork still runs more stable for me, plus it works fully offline.
 
Yep very understandable. Some people want to stay on a low as possible fw and wait for games to get backported - but that's not always so realistic.
If a newer game truly relies on the newer SDK, using new functionality introduced in a recent SDK version etc, then backporting can be a big chore.
Not fun to do that for each game (each update for each game) lol

You talking about the people who on 2xx to 3xxx with dreams of a full hv exploit? I just pray for them. Looking at a PS5 launch still in the box in your corner unopened and it been there for 4+ years.

The looks I get when the average person knows I have a PS5 and I can play onlin. Cause I'm scared to update and refuse to get a 2nd PS5 cause I'm already invested.....
