Nope, as I said, it's only meant to spoof PS3 firmware, not PS4 firmware. This also does not preven any connection to servers, this just tells the PS3 it's on latest firmware.

To prevent update, use the CF3B5's PS3 Proxy Server GUI or the Android app mentioned in blckbear's main post in the beginning. Though, it must be you configuring them and seeing how to block the updates. If it's as easy as the PS3, it's just redirect an URL to a modified file that tricks the PS4 into thinking it's already in the latest version (at least that's how it's done on the PS3).

Btw, it be used to block the updates (on the PS3 at least) - that's how it "spoofs" the version (it doesn't, just tells the PS3 it's already updated - so blocks the updates because the PS3 thinks it's already updated).

About prevent connection to Sony servers, I think it can do it, but it's no programmed to do so. So yeah, you can't do it as it is now - with programming knowledge, it could be changed. A year ago or something, I tried adding an HTTPS to HTTP converter to the app (so the PS3 could open PSX-Place, for example - and it did). I guess I could also block the connection entirely. I think it has that potential. Could possibly block an entire domain? I think I never tried that, but I think it can do it. Mondul used a library on his program that has some cool stuff in it. I'd like to go on it more, but others things have came to mind...

There's just a thing, which is it can NOT block the most important domains --> HTTPS domains. Those are the "danger" domains (protected domains). No library or anything can block that. That's system communications security. Can't bypass it, unless it wasn't well implemented. Not because of the library or the language or whatever. Would only work with attacking the PS4 with a MITM attack and would only work on the browser anyways. Out of it it wouldn't (it doesn't on the PS3, so why would it on the PS4, I guess).

Yes, what I tried to convey was that it didn't explicitly block the connection, it only gave the PS3 the info to make it think "I'm already updated, no need to download an update" but the connection could still be made if wanted. So like, it does not explicitly block any connections to PSn, it just bypasses them only for firmware updates, meaning that any other PSN connection is posiible and you can sign in, but that makes PSN bans more probable, instead of what he wanted, which was prevent bans.

This could be adapted to work for PS4 if it uses the same system to check for latest version, but it wouldn't help prevent bans.
