(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Thought this might be a helpful discussion thread for people to share where or how they got a jailbroken PS4. Hopefully this discussion will shed some light for users researching on how or where to get one for themselves, discussions like this helped me a ton when I was learning.


How I got mine:

After researching console bundles guaranteed low firmware I bought the Star Wars Battlefront 2 slim bundle off Amazon brand new. This bundle was manufactured in 2017 & discontinued before 5.55 firmware was released so I was positive that it was a guaranteed hit. Once it arrived the console was on firmware 4.73 out the box, from then I updated it's firmware to 5.05 and ready for exploits.

Also this video by Skullator helped me as well when finding a good bundle.

I got mine on amazon the original jet black console came with 3.xx can’t remember then I went to 4.05 then 4.55 now I’m on 5.05

I had two PS4's from pre-order, Before PS4 was released.
Kept one PS4 to update and play
and the other PS4 I kept in box to hope and wait for any cfw to be released.
But no cfw and only exploits. So updated one to 1.76.

Later when 4.05 was released I bought another PS4 from amazon.

Sony PlayStation 4 500GB Console - Uncharted 4 Limited Edition Bundle [Discontinued].
This PS4 includes a Limited Edition PlayStation 4 system in Gray Blue with custom, Uncharted 4: A Thief's End inspired silk screened artwork.
Also includes Matching DualShock 4 Wireless Controller, and Uncharted 4: A Thief's End on Blu-ray disc.

It arrived on firmware 3.70.
Uncharted 4 Limited Edition cost at the time was $319.99.
But the price is now higher ($381.95.) and only 3 left.

Before I bought this I looked for only the controller and it alone was $100.
So not a bad deal.

Kinda wanted to keep this info to self for when I want another or for when a friend does.
But thats just greedy lol.

yeah I hear ya. You can get games for free and stuff. But some of us have adapted so much to online gaming that playing offline would get boring very quickly. Plus most games now days require PSN access to even play them. Which are useless on 5.05 systems. I don't mind playing offline. still play ps2 games from time to time. (call me old-school if you must) lol.

A Jailbreak with a user already on it is alot more intresting though for modding saves and fine your own cheat codes if they arent on Save Wizard

I have a whole bunch of PS4's with original parts. Most of them need only a reball. So I decided to refurbish one for myself. But I still have to fix an issue which is the HDMI port. I've to solder a new one from a donor board I have.

bought the slim uncharted bundle on amazon in march. it came on 3.55

I bought the Days Of Play LE PS4, come with like 4.50 i think, somewhere around that
