9.0 OFW & GoldHen CE-30391-6 CMOS fix

[Aussie_]

My 6.72 recently got the dreaded cbomb YAY!!
I know there is temporary workarounds like todex & 2.1.3b... GoldHen also includes a fix.
After testing many versions Goldhen fix doesn't work on 6.72 which is a shame and odd.

My questions
1. Mostly use Phive but some newer games need Goldhen. If i use GH 2.3b2 then add just 2.1.3b for cmos fix (it works) could this cause issues like performance, KP, corrupt saves etc?
2. 9.0 ofw fixes cbomb does this also fix keeping correct time after replacing dead cmos battery? and fix trophy information?
My hesitation upgrading to 9.0 is having only 5 kp on 2.1.3b and 0 on GH 2.3b2 from 120+ attempts, needing to use USB and Kiiwii hinting there is something coming to fw lower than 7.50.

Guess there's good reason reactPSPLUS never got a PROPER update above 5.05 or something like a unofficial server or alike (homebrew store) lol to sync the clock. Wonder what was added to 9.0 to fix cbomb could be used in some way with duct tape on lower fw's

It won't fix the clock. You have to sign in and sync to do so. I'd just use goldhen. Devs say you should only stay on lower if on 5.05, so I'd update to 9.00.

The rumour was/is something is coming for <8.00 however at the eye 9.00 is going it may well come for 9.00 too. It’s the waiting game. I’m sticking to 5.05/6.72 rn.

So thats what happened to my CUH-1004A fw 9.00 when i replaced the battery while i was at it replacing the thermalpaste.
When i set the date/time manually it resets after every reboot. I was starting to think i broke something but to fix it i need to let it connect to PSN and thats not gonna happen anytime soon.

The ps4-kernel-clock payload can only fix this problem until 5.05 FW ?

9.00 is very stable with the latest hosts like karo (avoid kernel panic with error messages), but there are problems with timestamps (blank), the only solution is with goldhen (temporarily), in 5.05 it worked fine but kernel panics (they can't be avoided) and timestamps work fine,
