9.00 HEN GOLD FIRMWARE

1. Update your PS4 Firmware

 

If your PS4 isn’t running on 9.00 firmware, you need to update your firmware via USB. You cannot update your firmware through the Internet as it will be updated to the latest firmware version. Keep in mind, if your PS4 running on 9.03 or higher, you can’t go back to 9.00 or lower and you will not be able to run the jailbreak. That’s why we always suggest staying on the lower version as possible. So, disable internet from your PS4 and follow the below steps.

​

  1. Download 9.00 PS4 Update Recovery (PUP) file to your desktop computer, laptop, or other devices to any specific folder. If the Recovery PUP not working here is the 9.00 PS4 Update Retail (PUP)

  2. Plug your USB drive and format with FAT32.

  3. Create PS4 ⇒ UPDATE folder in uppercase on your USB root.

  4. Put your result (PUP) file inside UPDATE folder.

  5. Plug your USB drive in your PS4 port

  6. Navigate to Settings > System Update > Update through storage media > Proceed. Follow the screen introduction.

2. Creat Bootable USB

​

You’ll need a USB stick every time you Exploit the PS4, you will need a dedicated USB drive. The image (exfathax.img) you need to copy using Rufus or Wind32 Disk Imager the file is only 4MB.

​

  1. Plug your USB drive on your Desktop Computer or Laptop. (No need to format it)

  2. Run Rufus latest version as administrator.

  3. Select your USB drive and exfathax.img file in boot selection.

  4. Leave everything default and start.

  5. Now your USB is ready

Note: Your USB can disappear from your PC. Don’t panic it happens. As I have mentioned above – you need a dedicated USB drive. This mean's you can’t put anything else on this bootable USB drive.
