Scene drama never gets old

Ot gets old real fast when talented devs leave the scene due to the nasty, entitled people. Then everybody suffers.

LOL, Sam Nesheiwat has his own set of issues and shouldn't be staring any drama.

ABBA to the rescue.. !

"You are the drama queen
Young and sweet, only seventeen
Drama queen
Feel the beat from the PS scene, oh, yeah"

"You can hack, you can cry
Having the time of your life
Ooh, see that "girl", watch that PS scene
Digging the drama queen"

This doesn't look great. I'm actually disappointed by some of things I'm reading.
It could escalate very quickly. Devs need to be as transparent as possible because one or two bad eggs can be toxic to the scene.
At the end of the day, are you in this for the money or because passionate about sharing and helping people.

I’ve got a 5.05 system too that stays in rest mode 24/7. KPs are very rare, and the jailbreak usually works again on the first try. 5.05 also isn’t affected by CBOMB issues, though a jailbroken 6.72 may have ways to mitigate that. With PLK’s RLL fork on my 7.61 PS5, I’m seeing similar stability and success rate, just not as convenient as WebKit. Because of this reliability and the wide availability of backports, I never bothered with firmware revert mods. I wonder how many actually risked that on their 5.05. It’d be helpful to see more stability comparisons from users who did. I’m skeptical of upgrade reports claiming 6.72 is “more stable” than 5.05, as people naturally justify their decisions after the fact. As for PS5 backports, maybe the right devs haven’t jumped in yet, but there’s no guarantee it'll be like on PS4 for 6- to 7-year-old firmwares. Holding onto a low-firmware PS5 might end up being more of a curse than a blessing if your main goal is actually playing games.

Funny that i ordered the teensy 2++ and so on yesterday and also wondered if i should test stability on all the different fws.

Have a PS4 that was updated from 9.00 to 11.00 about a year ago.
Also i have 2x on 5.05 that i bought new, and only updated once from factory fw (2.xx ~ 3.xx) to 5.05 a few years ago but never used them.
Another one that i bought a couple months ago is on 12.00 and the seller did not really use it.
Would like to revert the 5.05 models back to the factory fw and also go to the previous fws on the other 2 models. (9.00 and ?)

All of them should be cuh-1216 if i remember righ.
Theoretically i could update and test all the relevant firmwares on one of the low fw models next month because i have more time then.
Not sure how useful for the public the results would be because there are a lot of different models out there with different components built in. What models do you guys have?
Guess that most people have the cuh-12 because most of my subscribers with PS5 phat models have the cfi-12 too.

(most pcs produced)

PS: before reverting the 5.05 i would do the high fw ones to see how it goes. Also if somebody has some useful tools, please pm me

Donated 5$ to Andy_man yesterday and realised later that i had to select a product to buy first, in order to get the software (ps4 wee tools)

you as right, it was to show how well we're taken for fools and that somehow the community must also be aware of what's going on and finally see the real faces of some people.

But you're right, that's not the place for that.

I usually don’t go for launch hardware when it comes to consoles. The only time I did was with the PS4, and I had issues with the Blu-ray drive not long after. I ended up selling it and picking up a PS4 Slim instead. That kind of turned me off from day-one units. Right now I’ve got a CECH-21 PS3 on custom firmware, CUH-20 PS4 on 5.05, and 2 CFI-12 PS5 on 6.02 and 7.61. I tend to wait for later revisions since they often come with more mature hardware, like better APU lithography, improved power efficiency, and lower heat output. They also tend to fix the early design issues seen in launch models. It’s cool that you’ve got multiple PS4s across different firmware versions. That kind of setup is really useful for testing stability and performance differences. Definitely share your findings if you get around to it. I’m especially curious about how those reverted units hold up over time.

Yes, we were talking about it most recently, the time of the PS3 when the devs were doing it with passion unfortunately no longer exist, now it is money or nothing. It's sad, unfortunately.

Shame I missed out on ps3 scene. I actually had an Xbox 360 at the time (was pissed at Sony).
My experience with filesharing goes back to 1999. Was an interesting time for me but things didn't really kick off until 2003 when broadband in my country was readily available.
I love the whole philosophy behind bittorrent and the p2p scenes. Or even with all those great free pc apps that made life so practical.
Just want to see that same drive and passion in the Devs I support. Knowledge is precious and should be shared, not coveted like a gollum in dark cave.

That it was a very beautiful time the PS3 scene, I miss it so much,

Like you also said with bittorrent P2P (fortunately they're still relevant) and by sharing we can evolve, but the only problem : we have to share with the right people.

I check the news almost every day but unfortunately there is not much new for PS5 // no new webkit, no new kstuff, no new linux/kldload, mp4 etc. Does anyone know any new behind-the-scenes information? I don't count constantly repeating lua as news.

Obviously Kstuff for 8.xx is coming soon as EchoStretch just got his test kit.

Afaik Linux is stuck at a point and Sleirs is working on fixing that.

Lots of new dumps for PS4 games provided by Zeco and others, and fresh back ports by Oppo and Cyber, they work on PS5 too.

Besides that no news.

AlphaBravo · Jul 12, 2025

kStuff for 8.xx will be nice but Im more interested in the work happening with etahen/Itemzflow. If LightningMods can pull it off, you will have significant progress with ps5 scene. He said "Soon" recently so that could mean anything from a week to couple months...
There were a few other projects I was looking forward to (Hen2, MP4/A53 & FPKGs, WebKit) but no recent updates so etahen will be the one to watch imo.

Actually the priority is new webkit for me

Not just talking about what I want but who to keep an eye on where the next breakthrough will likely come from in ps5 scene.

Tried it from my PS5 exploit failed.

So homebrewed my 5.50 PS5 and am trying to play Astro's Playroom on it, but anytime I try I get the "The update file for this game or app has been downloaded. To update this game or app, update the system software first" message.

I tried to use https://github.com/vladimir-cucu/ps5-webkit-cache-remover to remove it. I successfully sent the payload and got affirmation, but this message continues.
