Awaited New Jailbreak to PlayStation 4 Coming Soon (6.72 firmware)

yes, maybe is better to wait for something really stable and well tested. I appreciate the work for the 6.72 so far, but I think that it's still better to wait. thanks

about the backporting, I've read that someone had problems with the savegames, game crash or fan too noisy than normal. Is it true ? I mean it could be possible becauase of the bakporting ?

A lot of games are overclocking or accelerating the hardware of the console. It's possible that 5.05 to not have so good system management. But the games are accelerating for a short time. Happened to me with Ghost Recon on a phat ps4.

You can try DarkModderVC's jailbreak for 6.72. You will have problems with the savegames only if there is a conflict, like you have saves from 6.72 and the game is edited to work on 5.05. But use the save mounter and I think that it will be ok. Regarding the crashes, I can confirm we have a lot of them on 6.72 JB/MIRA.

I won't test right now 5.05, because I have a phat on that sw and a pro on 6.72. I want to replay some titles on pro.

Here: https://darkmoddervc.github.io/PS4JB/ - he made a cached version ;)

I am also ok with hakkuraifu's hen. Sometimes even Mira from Al Azif is ok. Hope that SpecterDev and the others will take a look.

EDIT: about the fan, you can change the cooling system, or to use a good thermal paste and to clean the ps4.

thanks for your explanation ! I din't know about the system management of the different firmware version. So, if it's like this, the louder fan noise, could be normal in this case

thanks also for the suggestion about the cooling system. I'll try, if it's not too complicated and if the thermal paste can really solve the noise problem of my old model of ps4

You're welcome! If it's old (not opened), clean it and change the paste. I have one also. :D I can feel the differences.

There were on the internet to buy something like thermal grizzly. Something like this. Maybe there are also better options.

I did this last year and nfs payback and also ghost recon are a bit silent on 5.05.
 
I'm unable to dump spiderman, what's the way out? My internet connection moves like snails so I dont dare try downloading. Any way out?
 
So from what I'm reading, it's still not recommended to update to 6.72 if you are with 5.05?
 
I would not advise anyone to update to 6.72 right now untill the exploit has been updated and is more stable
 
I am using Mira (unofficial) from Al Azif, but cached and I am accessing it offline, from the manual inside the settings. If it fails, I am restarting 2 times the console. I am playing for some days RDR2 and the success rate is about 95-98%.

From some time, leeful isn't working as good...

It seems that the browser app from ps4 is a bit unstable. Also darkmodder's exploit is good. I also had great experience with HEN.

But in a few cases Days Gone crashed and after the restart, it tried to download something. Maybe some crashes are because of a bad dump.
 
The issue you mentioned is bound to happen from time to time due to a phenomenon called "kernel panic." You are less likely to experience this issue by letting the system sit for a while from cold boot (ideally, between 2 to 3 minutes), before enabling the exploit.

I'm not sure if there is such a thing as a "bad dump" on PS4, but that's not away from possibility.

All I know right now is that Marvel's Spider-Man GOTY crashes on 5.05 when backported.

I'm quite pre-occupied with Horizon Zero Dawn Complete Edition at the moment to not to see if there are other games that crash on FW 5.05.
 
i am 5.5 is that the best one out still
There isn't anything out for 5.50, if you have 5.05 then it's a matter of choice, but I personally don't know of any reason not to upgrade to 6.72 at present.
 
Anyone know of anyone working on a webkit for 7.02? Is there work going on privately?
 
can anyone possibly offer any reliability reports on these newer exploits ? im on 5.05 and i am wondering if its worth the risk updating yet ?
 
You only need to go to 6.72 because 7.02 games work on 6.72. 5.05 is slightly more stable, but 6.72 is fine you may have 1 crash or 0 crashes.

As far as the ones just announced 7.5+ they're not out yet.
