PS4: 7.55 exploit updated to include retry-on-error (should increase stability)
Developer sleirsgoevy has updated the PS4 7.55 Jailbreak code, in order to add some retry on error functionality. In some known cases where it is possible to recover from errors, the code will now retry instead of simply failing.
Although this is not a silver bullet, the hope here is that this could increase reliability of the exploit overall. At a quick glance, the changes are specifically for the kernel part of the exploit itself, not the underlying webkit exploit. This means that users of the jailbreak still have to live with the webkit exploit low stability to begin with.
In other words, do not expect miracles with this update, but if you’ve been having issues running the PS4 7.55 Jailbreak, this update might help you.
Note: PS4 Firmware 7.55 is the latest and greatest firmware to run a Jailbreak on your PS4. There are no publicly released Jailbreaks for 8.xx at the moment. And, generally speaking, downgrading is not possible (the exception being if you have a copy of the PS4’s internal from when it was on a lower firmware). In general your best bet to run a Jailbreak on your PS4 is to get a PS4 running firmware 7.55 or lower.

Wouldn’t be a script that simply punches that retry button silly easily achievable ?
How about coding a Raspberry for example that has a bluetooth module and eventually a battery, maybe even a plastic shell with a pirate’s skull on it… that emulates a controller and upon jailbreak disconnects so you can press the controller’s PS button ?
Way I see it this hardware should be crowned king with this tethered-only-so-far exploit. Until we see keys.
Idea is : Press the ON button on the hardware, hardware connects to bluetooth, bluetooth initiates communication with the console, telling the PS4 it’s a controller, after 10 seconds scrolls to User’s guide, BANG ! 7.55 Jailbreak ! The script could have multiple tails. Like a second button for a 5.05 PS4 User’s guide entry. Or act itself as a host once you press a third button and it does the magic of going through your settings and changing your DNS. 3g or 4g using a SIM could also be achievable. And also why not maybe in the form of a USB MITM device so you still have 3 ports available on the PRO and the device basically would draw power from the usb and also have a switch in the 192.168.1.X page where you could easily turn on your 3g or 4g SIM’s internet connection. Also bluetooth could be an alternative to having connected that USB’s port data rails to the device. Might come in a cheaper or a deluxe edition. With the deluxe having an extra button in 192.168.1.X page for switching between bluetooth and usb functionality. The trick would be achieving a way of 100% foolproof way of telling the device when to stop. I got you covered on that topic also, don’t worry. A jb payload that cuts the power to the USBs for 10 seconds. And if you have the battery-enabled portable device let it listen to the bluetooth comms around. When you connect the controller ofc the PS4’s bluetooth “Hey, connect to me !” kind of message wouldn’t be broadcasted no more. And that should do the trick.
Hmmm ima try it out lets see hows the success rate… Honestly i skipped the hype of 7.55 jb since Its unstable but just like the rest of the jb im sure it will ripe into its full potential in time and harness the same thing that gives 6.72.
Isnt 6.72 jb also unstable? And 7.55 jb is just even less so. Best stability is still 5.05 jb.
Well I’m on 30 success n 1 fail.. it’s pretty stable for me
What model is your PS4? Phat, Slim, or Pro?
7.02 jb is stable? Does it worth update 6.72 to 7.02?
Please give us updates to see how the stability is going for us users waiting on stability to upgrade. We’d appreciate it! Thanks
How to make a copy of my PS4 internals if I’m on 5.05 before I upgrade
If you want to downgrade to 5.05 after you have upgraded to any higher ofw you need to make it while you still can – copy the 5.05 files that are currently on the console using a hardware flasher.
You basically restore them once you’re on the latest firmware, per se if you don’t like the latest firmware. But you should also – while you still can – clone your hdd. It’s way easier than finding a downgrader skilled enough not to kill your ps4… Cause the hardware would be easier to find and cloning HDD even easier. IMHO it would be a great lesson for you. Go 4 it !
