If someone already has a 9.0 PS4, is there any advantage (once it's fully stable and supported etc.) to updating to 11.0 for this exploit? Or just stay on 9 with p00bs?

Ahh so I would need to keep my PS4 handy and hooked up to be able to back up discs. OK, but I could just go through them all once, get them all dumped, then store the PS4 away and play them on the PS5, is that right?

Thanks for the info! 1. Are you saying (as I hope you are) that I can back up my PS4 discs (using...?), store them safely away, then play those backups from NVME/SSD storage on the PS5? That's what I'm hoping I can do. 2. Yeah this is what I would use if/when I JB my PS5. I'm in no hurry so...

Hey all, I've been following the activity in the scene especially lately and it's clearly moving super fast. Now I'm slightly unclear on a few things and I'm hoping someone can help me understand where things are at. I have a 9.x PS4 and a PS5 updated as of several years ago, haven't touched...

I could've sworn at one point I saw something about no longer needing to remove the USB drive? I've been sitting on my 9.0 Pro for ages but haven't JBd it, finally considering doing it but the tutorial looks like it hasn't been updated in a long time. Wanted to see if there were any...

Ahh gotcha. No idea in that case but maybe someone knows.

I don't see how it could be burned onto anything other than a BD disc, since a standard DVD would never be able to hold a full AAA game. Indie games maybe, but I don't even know if the PS5 will read a game off of a standard DVD. Maybe someone else knows.

So if this works on PS3, 4, and 5, does it mean it will work on all (disc based) editions like phat, slim, super slim, etc.?

OK, so I needed to have installed the Media Player originally when I got the PS5. Bummer, I didn't realize those apps weren't pre-installed. Oh well it's not essential, I'll just wait to see what the JB brings. Good times!!

Now that a PS5 JB appears to be imminent, I'm looking forward to finally actually using the PS5 I got a few months back when Sony emailed customers to allow them to buy one at retail price. I've only powered it up a couple times since I got it, didn't want to really do much with it and...

I just see enough people around here and other places talking about how they just went and grabbed one when stock came in at insert_store_here, it doesn't seem that crazy to think that such a team of people could in some way lay their hands on a unit. But I admit I have never once ever looked...

I was just about to post basically the same thing. There's endless speculation that this exploit "could work" on PS5 as well, yet the only explanation I've seen for nothing more being known is that the dev(s) don't have a PS5? That seems pretty silly to me. They *are* available out there, and...

Yeah if I get impatient I'll try this out, but I know it'll bug me not being able to just shut the device off. I play very infrequently so I don't like to leave everything in standby forever. I dunno about waiting forever though... this is the first time we've seen a JB for fairly current FW I...

Oh! Wow it's not persistent... oh man that'll drive me nuts. I'm going to just hold off for a proper CFW then. I'm in no hurry... will be watching this with great interest!
