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.

Hypervisor (HV):
Highest known HV exploit: 6.02

NOTE: A userland entry exploit (UL) chained to kernel exploit (KEX) is required at a bare minimum to exploit your console.

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)

Spoiler: System Update Information

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

   (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.

   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)

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.

What else are you looking for ?

If there’s a void that has not been filled yet I’m happy to make another payload to pc app or smth

cheats without etaHEN toolbox running? it's such a pain in the ass to have toolbox activated only to use cheats

 

[Schweino]

So, I have been working on my 4.50 PS5 to see if it can replace my PS4 pro and as far as PS4 games go it all works like a charm.

I do have some issues with PS5 games though, so I wonder how you all handle that. Seems to be hit and miss for me what works.

- Some games work as ffpkg from internal, but some won't start up at all
- Some games work as exfat from external, but some games won't even get mounted at all (using Voidshell 3.0)
- Some games work as game dump from external, while others have issues with loading speeds, audio or other stutters

How do you know what games work in which format? Takes a lot of time to find out each time, so I was wondering what your preferred method is. Load all games as game dump from external?

Also is there a way to manually mount exfat format games when Voidshell doesn't mount them automatically (not even after a forced rescan)?

I also encountered some odd artifacts and wondered what can cause that: Indiana Jones (ffpkg from internal) for instance. HDR is all washed out (black looks gray) and audio volume of the voices is very low. This is not the case on my Xbox series X copy of the game (with the exact same setting ingame). Is this a result of the backpork of running it as ffpkg perhaps?

My setup:
PS5 fat disc with YTJB autoload loading just Voidshell and backpork.

I also have a 8.40, 10.40 and 12.00 PS5 btw, would one of these have more success when running PS5 games perhaps?

 

[xalfie]

agree, that he call 'bounty' is a shit on a stick. It's up to him. But he can't fall any lower, well with the star wars unicorn....

 

[Rasa39]

Sad news. I was kind of hoping that he keeps the exploit private till it gets patched.

After teasing it, he probably got a whole bunch of "eTaWhEn FuKn ScAm SeLlOuT FuCk U ReLeAsE NaUwW!" and probably figured he might as well get that bread. I do seriously hope he gets a decent bonus for it though, but then again they aren't too happy with him for the whole blu-ray thingy, but hey, maybe he wanted to get into their good books for whatever reason lol.

It does make me wonder though, if he kept it, what are the odds that whatever it entails, it could have worked on the PS6? I mean each console iteration is just a suped up version of the last, running the same core firmware, just with some additional tweaks. So only he would know I guess, but I feel like that would probably have been the case.

Could also be he got mad, waiting for GTA6 and was holding off for it, maybe Sony hooked him up with an early copy in exchange

@Schweino You'll definitely have better luck on the higher firmware consoles for compatibilty. A lot of audio issues are due to backports, which Bestpig is trying to fix but it doesn't seem simple as he's only fixed a few games so far (so not an easy universal fix I mean).

If you have the extra consoles, might as well use them. So far I've only had issues with one game, but everyone else reported it had major lag, and that was due to the backport and depended on how old your firmware was.

Assume they've been made correctly, exfat should work externally, and ffpkg work on m.2. You can mix them up though as I have exfat on my m.2 and they run fine. I think it widely depends on the backports tbh, since you're running games with older libraries that they aren't designed to run on, hence the most issues come from backports.

 

[HS2005]

How do you know what games work in which format? Takes a lot of time to find out each time, so I was wondering what your preferred method is. Load all games as game dump from external?

I run a 10.01 system and what always works for me is to have the folder of a game on a external M2 drive slotted at the USB-C port at the front. After that load Voidshell or Shadowmount. Never have any issues with games this way.

Also consider with backports there are generally only a couple of 'quality' devs working on them and these devs have a life outside of the scene which is also a reason the backports are slow... But that's fine by me... Anything they provide is a bonus and i'm grateful for thier services

How they create backports and whst it entails I have no clue... it's a shame there's no backport academy where they can teach you lol

Ps5 on 13.00 with swrr is useless as it downloads licenses every 30 days?

Was't 13.00 released around mid March? Wonder if they have already patched the new vunerability which Gezine reported to H1? If they have that vunerabilty must really be serious?

I made ps5 system backup with digital version of star wars rr on firmware 12.70 so am I safe?

Bud, I don't think I have responded to you about this, did you figure out, or still waiting for my answer? I ask because I finally will have some available time to try later today after work.

Sorry for my late reply. I figured it out and just did it — it worked, and the icons disappeared afterwards while the jailbreak stayed. However, you have to do it every time, because the icons don’t disappear automatically after deleting, which is really strange.

No idea... when did you buy SWRR? Before March? It seems to be affecting people from mid march according to the reports on Discord.. Stay off-line just to be sure but if you have been online since then and you've not had the message then you have your answer...

Indeed. Version 26.03-13.20.00:

Complete patch notes for today’s PS5 firmware update are as follows:

• We’ve added more emojis that you can use for message reactions.
• We’ve improved the messages and usability on some screens.

There are no new system software updates for the PS4 or PS Portal remote player.

I'll wait untill somebody tells more about possible hidden security measures Sony has taken.

Damn, huge update, totally worth getting the latest firmware for lol. Must be struggling to find a reason other than stability, I guess they got upset at the memes for it on ps4. Honestly the next Sony patch notes should just be something like:

• Fixed some shit, I think, I dunno
• Added some stuff, look it up
• Applied new £120 price to all temporary license leases (Games "purchases")
• Disabled your Blu-ray drive lol, get fucked

I mean I get why they don't wanna go into specifics if they patched hack related exploits, but it would be cool to see some detailed patch notes like some game developers get up to.

Theres usually optimizations to the kernel as well

One good example of this is with zftpd. It has much better performance on 9.xx+ then on 8.xx or below

You can get like double the speed because of how much better the newer fw performs

Digital users are screwed. We need a new webkit entrypoint more than ever.

I've been playing around with this webkit but think i've got the wrong end of the stick or web? Perhaps my spider tingly sense is not working correctly?
