Just figured I'd post up here some info as far as the current exploit chain on ps4 7.02. for those who own a ps4 on 6.72 or lower I highly recommend you not update yet, keyword being yet. It works very well when it works, however it seems to be up to luck and how your specific console reacts to the exploit chain itself. My 7.02 fat style ps4 works very well has been fully tested after a refurb by myself(it needs a reball), I've used the current exploit to install a few homebrew apps, tinker in debug settings viewing the debug info available there for craps n gigs but haven't altered any settings out of fear of the unknown and not wanting to bork my console in some unforseen way, but it works great post exploit most of the time so far I've had a couple KP(faux instant power down but console remains powered on despite the lack of video output etc, requiring a forced full power down, or power held 15s or whatever) while using the console post succesful exploit but this rarely occurred. But it is kinda glitchy and does crash and hang sometimes, usually if my console is feeling it it would work successfully after little to no OOM popups(meaning the webkit exploit had failed, and you click okay to retry). Other times it would Out Of Memory popup more than 2 dozen times ultimately giving a failed to gain arbitrary r/w primitive, and I would fully power down and back on the console and try again. My point here of this rambling is yes it works, and is a great advancement for the community and I'm very grateful for this, but in my opinion if anyone is on 6.72 or lower stay there for now until some time has passed. For the rest of us(myself included) which were already on 7.02 this is great however buggy it may be. Also side note almost every power cycle after even a successful exploit my console goes through the KP system check crap so just putting that out there.
