Only 100% on my other console. On my 9.60 console i'm like at 50% around Chapter 3.

I ve finished the game on pc. And would make a second run. Tried to use pc save settings to ps5 but dont work.
So if you would send your save after the first run,it would be appreciated.

Are saves not tied to a user id? More specifically to the hex number assigned to the user id? You will need to reassign the save to your own user id for it to work, yes?

I use Y2JB and set it to load as soon as it starts up from the ps5autoloader folder, or you can also put it in the homebrew folder called payload loader or even in the etahen plugins folder, it will load.

I'm biased in saying I was stuck on version 3.00 for almost 3 years. It was a difficult decision that only I could make, and today I see that it was the best thing I ever did. My PS5 was useless. Apart from the KP (key performance), most devs don't have PS5s below 4.03, so the chance of it changing is very low, but it could happen.

Check DLPS; it also updates the game info

Put it in autoloader, that's how I did it here, then you can enter and run the game

Guys, can you run AstroBot on both internal and external drives? Yesterday I tested it on USB with a 500GB Samsung 870 Evo and it ran perfectly. Transferring to my external M.2 EX1 works, but it stutters a lot, like a scratched disc, haha, and that's a Samsung 990 Pro with a 2TB headSink! Now I just need to test it on the internal drive. I managed to transfer it in 1 hour and 30 minutes using FTPServ 017.2 with FileZilla at a speed of 110MB/s.

Good info. for Astrobot backport, which folders did you copy and pasted in games folder? It has fakelib folder with 5 files, sce_module folder with 7 files, sce_sys folder with one more folder and eboot.bin. did you copy and replaced all of these?

Backport Tutorial..

Found this on discord, not sure how relevant it is or perhaps has been superseeded as i have not needed to do any backports on my 9.05 console...

Tutorial: Backporting PS5 Game Modules to 5.xx
This guide explains how to efficiently backport game modules and manually patch libc.prx for compatibility with lower firmware versions.

1. Batch Patching with Nazky's Tool
This step automates the backporting process for all the game's modules at once, for time-efficiency (instead of patching files individually. Echostretch’s also good).

* Preparation: Create two separate folders on your computer: one named Input and one named Output.
* Locate Files: Go to your game's directory and find all the .prx files belonging to the game (these are usually located in the root of the game, sce_module/ and other folders). Copy these files into your Input folder.

1.1 Running the Tool:
* Open Nazky’s Backport Tool.
* When prompted, provide the full path to your Input folder.
* Next, provide the full path to your Output folder.
* Select Firmware: When asked for the target firmware, type 5 (to target firmware 5.xx).
* Signing Method: For the signing method prompt, type 1.
* Next Option: Type 1 again for the following configuration prompt.
* Confirm: Type yes to finalize and start the batch patching process.

2. Manual Patch for libc.prx
Once the bulk patching is complete, you must manually edit the libc.prx file (found in your Output folder) as recommended by BestPig.
* Open the backported libc.prx file using Notepad++.
* Press Ctrl + H (or Ctrl + F) to open the Replace menu.
(Search Mode: Ensure "Normal" is selected.)
* Find what: 4h6F1LLbTiw#A#B
* Replace with: IWIBBdTHit4#A#B
* Click Replace All and save the file.

3. Apply Fakelibs
To finalize the installation and resolve any remaining linking issues:
* Download the 5.xx Fakelib (the specific version posted by Baderlink).
* Place these fakelib files into the game folder on your PS5.

4. Final Steps
Transfer all the newly patched modules and the fakelibs back to your PlayStation PS5. Your game should now be compatible and ready to run on your current firmware (Not all games work).

What i did with GOW Ragnarok was i used the Apollo Save tool on my PS4 and i reassigned a save game which i got from another user to my PSN id user on my PS4. I was then able to use that PS4 save game on my PS5 which had the same user id. I then loaded the PS5 version of GOW and guess what? It allowed me to see the PS4 saved gave and that was it...

There is also another tool, which allows you to change the user id's HEX / HASH number so that it matches the PSN id. I think it's a PS4 piece of code but i can't rememeber what it's name is as i used it months ago.... I'll fire up my ps4 at some point to see if it's still on there....

Until Apollo Save tool is migrated across to PS5 there is no other easy way of using other users savess that i know of..

As you said, you will try it... please do let us know if it works

Well it can be done. I have not tested it for myself. But this is the tutorial that I have read. I would say: test to see if it works. I have no need for it.

Code:

PS5 GUIDE – OFFLINE ACCOUNT ACTIVATION / SAVE IMPORT

(one-time setup)

Important note

This procedure is required only once.
After completing it, the workflow will always be the same.

1. Required downloads

Download Homebrew Launcher (PKG)

Download OffAct
from:
https://github.com/ps5-payload-dev/websrv/releases

Homebrew Launcher is the only PKG file.

Download WebSrv from:
https://github.com/ps5-payload-dev/websrv/releases/tag/v0.29

2. Install Homebrew Launcher

Install the Homebrew Launcher PKG on your jailbroken PS5.

3. Prepare USB / SSD

On your USB or SSD, create the following folder: /data/homebrew/
Extract the OffAct folder from the ZIP and copy it into: /data/homebrew/OffAct
4. Add dump_runner

Inside the OffAct folder, make sure these files are present:

dump_runner.elf

homebrew.js

5. User ID

The User ID is shown on the Offline account activation screen,put this id id: 0x0991b6cda83162c9
Copy this exact ID and insert it where required by OffAct.
The username (e.g. User1) is not important.

After inserting the ID:

Reboot the PS5

Run etaHEN again

6. Save import via FTP

With the PS5 powered on and etaHEN running:

Open FileZilla

Enter:

PS5 IP address

Port: 1337

Navigate to:

/user/home/youruser/savedata_prospero


Import the provided PPSA save folder

If the save already exists, overwrite it.

Recommendation

Always make a backup

Delete the existing PS5 save from system settings

Import the save via FTP

Reboot the console

The process is complete.

Well been putting it off for a few days and honestly that was a breeze...

Updated my Digital to 4.03 Running YTJB 1.3 (Autoloader 0.4), I have etaHEN 2.6b with ShadowMount and BackPork running in the background

I have a USB NVME plugged in the back and games like Astro Bot, Street Fighter 6, Stray and a bunch more all running perfectly sweet with no freezing, jerkiness or other reported issues... they just work and work really well

Really pleased to be a part of the GBATemp PS5 community and looking forward to more community driven homebrews and developments

Thank you for listening to my positive post and thank you to those who provided initial pointers and help

Good man! Glad you did it.... Stay on 4.03 for a while... and get GOW working... It will take up way too much of your life haha

Edit: 4.51 is also safe to go to and best of all it's the last fw which will allow webkit exploit if my memory serves we correctly... But like i said enjoy the 4.xx and the freedom over 3.xx it gives

Hi all, I am trying to run silent hill 2 (PPSA08710 Ver 1.00) with backport 6.50 and it gives me a pssr error (Plugin 'PSSR' failed to load because module 'PSSRPrePass' could not be found. Please ensure the plugin is properly installed, otherwise consider disabling the plugin for this project). I've been searching on Reddit, Discord, and YouTube for a while now and haven't found much... Does anyone know what this is about?

Thanks.

PSSR is a feature exclusive to the PS5 Pro. As per Sony, the base PS5 is incapable of using PSSR as it lacks a necessary hardware component. Since you're obviously running that plugin on a non-Pro PS5 (unless you did the unthinkable and got 6.50 installed on a PS5 Pro), you might wanna follow those instructions and not have that PSSR plugin enabled at all.

And how is it possible that this error is appearing on my fat-bd model ? I don't understand anything..

Besides, I've been looking in the console options and ItemzFlow and there's nothing about it..

SonGoku78 · Jan 27, 2026

If i want to copy from external usb ssd to internal ssd (not internal m2) directly on the ps5 (aka sitting in front of tv) the tool to go is ps5explorer ?
Or is there another tool for it which needs to be installed?
I remember reading something about copying to internal but couldn´t find it in the megathread.
Or was that included as a function in etahen toolbox or itemzflow ?

What's wrong with firmware 6.50?
