SpecterDev, the one known for creating and releasing a functional implementation of Qwertyoruiop’s 4.55 Kernel Exploit for the PS4, has now taken to twitter to tease a "full stack release" for PS4 firmware 5.05 within the next few weeks. He states that tools for homebrew development are incoming, with other miscellaneous tools arriving somewhere down the line. When asked, he goes on to confirm that yes, this will indeed include a brand new kernel exploit for firmware 5.05. Most importantly, though, he advises all users who are interested in homebrew who have a PS4 on or below firmware version 5.05 to NOT UPDATE.

Don’t update your <= 5.05 consoles if you care about homebrew. Hope to see cool stuff soon

This is exciting news!

Awesome news here and there.

A little longer than I expected, but I'm now glad I bought a brand new ps4 pro for less than RRP even though it came with 4.73.

 

[Darksabre72]

finally some news on kernal exploit for 5.0x

 

[TR_mahmutpek]

Just another teaser. I'll have enough time to be happy about it when it is finally out, but until then...

Isn't there a webkit exploit on 5.50?

 

[MasterJ360]

welp 1 step closer to 5.50 but the wait continues

I ditched online completely and stopped updating once 5.00 fw dropped. Interesting to see how this goes, once a release happens.

 

[DinohScene]

I'm on 4.06 but having it on 5.05 is a lot better!
Hopefully I can play NNK2 on me exploitable PS4 then.

What a legend! Qwertyoruiop won't have a carrot to dangle any longer.

Thank you Specter.

WELL Xone is the last survivor, how long will M$ hold his console from stingy pirates' merciless invasion?

 

[Enryx25]

Fuck. I uploaded two weeks ago because I wanted to buy Nier Automata

 

[cherryduck]

It's SpecterDev so hopefully we'll actually get something from this, but I've been waiting so long and seen so many promised exploits not get released that I can't get excited just yet.

As long as they don't release anything worth pirating.

There's only one game that I could see fitting here... and funnily this one in particular is about piracy. PLEASE for the joke of it let it be the first one to ever be pirated in case people get that far on the Xbone.

Nier Automata requires 4.07

Nier Automata requires 4.07

I guess @Enryx25 preferred to get it digitally. Otherwise this would make as much sense to me...
