PS4 PS4 HDD deleted savegames restore - last step needed

[John37]

Hi all and before anyone says this has been discussed here and there, I can assure You that I red all that I could and spent many hours on this topic.

I have deleted by mistake all my saves from my PS4 hdd. I took hdd out and didnt write to it after that.
Ive succesfully extracted eap key and mounted this 27nd partition under linux ( in windows linux to be more precise). Now Im stuck at last step: how to recover the deleted data? Anyone can help me or suggest any tool for linux or windows to do it ? Ive tried many, the most promising was UFS explorer but I dont know how to configure it to decrypt the data using my eap key and so I got stuck. Anyone can help ?

Make partition image from "/dev/mapper/ps4hdd_27" and this will be your decrypted user partition as food for eg. UFS Explorer.

i.e that way:

sudo dd if=/dev/mapper/ps4hdd_27 of=/media/test/decrypted.img status=progress

I will test and let you know the outcome.

Well.... I got my PS4 hdd mounted into folder on my C drive, heres my cmtab :

user {
dev=/dev/sdd27
dir=/mnt/c/user
flags=user,nofsck
fstype=ufs mountoptions=ro,noatime,noexec,ufstype=ufs2
cipher=aes-xts-plain64
ivoffset=111669149696
keyfile=/mnt/c/hdd/eap_key.bin
keyformat=raw
}

My second 1TB drive is mounted in /mnt/d
When I try to do your command :

sudo dd if=/mnt/c/user of=/mnt/d/decrypted.img status=progress

I get this output:
dd: error reading '/mnt/c/user': Is a directory
0+0 records in
0+0 records out
0 bytes copied, 0.00214517 s, 0.0 kB/s

Can you help me ? I`m not that good in linux ...

Ive found this command, should this work to add my ps4 hdd to dev/mappper in my case?

cryptsetup -d /mnt/c/hdd/eap_key.bin --cipher=aes-xts-plain64 -s 256 --offset=0 --skip=111669149696 create ps4hdd /dev/sdd27

Ok, so Ive got an decrypted.img file from my ps4 hdd...any tool that may be able to recover deleted files ? Ive tried some already butvwithout success...
