this is only a rumor at this point, but cturt has received a bounty from sony for $10K (same as theflow) for something a day or two ago. zecoxao says it's possibly a kernel exploit for 8.52, so an update from sony is likely incoming. if you're on 8.52 and want to exploit your system, do not update, because it will likely be patched. it could be a while before we know for sure or for anything to be released, so this is just a heads up.
 
Damn, and I'm stuck on 8.03 because of ODD fuse blow. :/ If this comes true, I hope it will be possible to backport it to my fw.

most likely will be by either @Joonie or someone else. in fact, check this out. that's hen for virtually all firmwares between 5.05 and 6.72. the lower 6.xx ones are said to be unstable, but all 5.xx ones should be good:

spoofing doesn't allow signing in to psn, but some games require it like spider-man miles morales iirc.

edit: that's if on lower firmware on top of a backport. I don't recall if goldhen shows the spoof or not in system settings, hen ones do, but only when coming back from rest mode, I guess for that to be loaded into memory or for it to be refreshed.
 
Stability of JB

5.05 - More than 90%
6.72 - 80%
7.02/7.55 - 20% to 50%
8.XX - Around 10%?

So 8.XX JB will be only good for dumping games and making backports for 5.05 & 6.72.
 
Why do You think it will ~10%? All of them using different methods... Never known if some can be 100% reliable or 10%.

Will be good for dumping EAP Key, PFS Key and maybe IDPS... Who cares games? :P
 
well, I just found out I can't send conversations/pm's for some reason. was going to send @nCadeRegal atreyu's phone number, because he wanted it. tired of being treated like shit, so I won't sign in again.
 
Or maybe it is a forum bug, not an intentional half globe evil conspiracy against You. In example, I have, let's say, not normal privileges, yet on dev section I cannot creating new threads. Relax...

Some peoples don't like You, that's for sure, and... that's happening from time to time to all of us! Some like You and for other You are just ordinary NPC like in a game. That's how human works. ;) I highly doubt someone i.e from moderators or admin, wasting his life's energy and time to making Your life harder, especially Yours, not the other 6999999999 peoples on Earth but You specifically... :P

I have mentioned the general trend. Vulnerabilities in PS4 have been continuously fixed and its getting harder & harder to find new ones. Sure there can be some method that can give 100% success but highly unlikely because Sony is now ahead of it in protecting the system.
 
Depend what have You in mind by CustomFirmWare term. If CFW like on PS3. Zero chances (I doubt Sony will ever again badly implement ECDSA or keys leak). If CFW like on PSP and PSV/PSTV, today also zero but who knows what exploits will future brings.
 
I have an unused fat PS4 still on 8.03 that I haven't touched in months - could this finally pave the way for some jailbreaking?

I'm not interested in online at all. I'd just like a purely offline device to run some games on it.

Guys have one thing to add. Not always is fuse errors. Got one SAD board didn't want to accept disk, took board on inspection. Nothing strange, no fuses blow. On manual insert with screwdriver it spinning disc but still didn't work to show disc. Eject manual. After exchange lens from one Pro it's just fine insert, eject on push. So not always a case to blame fuses without any test on board.
