Ps4 Slim firmware 7.00 with broken blu ray drive.

[Tomtani1]

I don't care about fixing the broken blu ray drive. I would like to update to firmware 9.0 to jailbreak it. Sony does not allow me to update the firmware with a broken blu ray drive by using the official method.

Can I use the firmware 7.02 jailbreak? Does the firmware 7.02 jailbreak work for firmware 7.0? Then use the NO Blu-Ray Drive app to update to firmwate 9.0.

Thanks.

the offsets would be different, so it wouldn't work. I'm not sure if lm added support to those limbo firmwares or not. I think he was going to between 5.05 and 7.5x, but I don't really know. I could ask him for you if you'd like. in fact, I'll do that.

I just did some reading and here is where the difficulty lies. I am currently on firmware 7.00 and my ps4 slim is not jailbroken. I cannot use the firmware 7.02 jailbreak. There is no public released firmware 7.00 jailbreak.

Lightning Mods's Nobd Updater will only work on a currently jailbroken ps4. The Nobd Updater should work for firmware 7.00 as well.

Can someone confirm that with a broken blu ray drive that I cannot just download firmware 7.02 onto a usb memory stick, go into safemode and then update to firmware 7.02?

Need working BD to update if no access to NoBD method

Need working BD to update if no access to NoBD method

Thank you. That was what I was thinking as well.

I have two options. 1. Fix the blu ray drive. 2. Wait for a firmware 7.00 jailbreak in order to use the NoBD Updater.

just got a response from al azif:

Says 7.0x should work fine.

you might think about sending LM a donation afterwards.

Yes. Does Chendo's exploit and Orbis repair guide require my ps4 firmware 7.00 to already be jailbroken? I just read the Orbis repair guide and it requires installing a pkg file using the package installer.

I don't know the exact process. someone else is asking about it on discord. I'll let you know what alazif or lm says. I did link them to this thread.

IIRC Mira was ported to 7.00 too.

 

[godreborn]

it's possible that the nobd detects the firmware, and is firmware agnostic. that's kinda the question I posed to alazif. I know that the debug.bin is now as well as alazif is working on making goldhen that way as well if I understand some of her comments on discord. I don't know how that's going. I haven't posted in that channel in many months as I haven't needed any help or help for others when I don't know the answer.

Modded Warfare's Youtube video from May 6, 2022 explained the situation. I don't know if there has been any updated methods.

like I said, there already is a 7.00 jailbreak: https://github.com/ChendoChap/ps4-ipv6-uaf

The ps4 7.00 jailbreak is what I am looking for. I will look into this. Thank you.
