I don't see 4.07 and the updated thing said it was out. I need that file to fix a system. Is the system fixable?

What? FW 4.07 file is on OP didn't you see it?
Thanks I was trying to find it after I logged in all the download files for the Ps4 vanished and I wanted to make sure it was there so I can fix my system with it since it said I needed 4.07 or higher

Edit: I take it that that this will fix the ps4 that loops the safety menu wanting to update and it will have 4.0.7 fw. It that's right, then that means I can update the other one I have.

Added firmwares and also the MD5 hash is now in the OFW upgrades section (to see more changes check changelog). Recovery I will have to get to when I can, I know I have been holding it off for a while, but I am super busy and if uploading the normal OFW isn't hard enough recovery being even bigger is harder. I will however get to it when I can I assure you that.

Hi

I am from Europe. Are these firmware region specific. I read somewhere that they get ofw released regarding different regions. Please inform me if that's the case.

are you sure they are region specific?
PS3 are not region specific, CFW and OFW are released in only one version for all the regions.
I think PS4 is the same. no?

that might be easy to check.
the latest FW is provided on sony's website? we can just compare the md5
https://www.playstation.com/fr-fr/get-help/ps4-system-software/

sys 5.01 (update, not full install) from EUR FR website :
md5 8606691c0201e4db2a4100f80fbaddb3
sha1 f8a3b0459c6975cbc0081708ab8457ed63584a32

you don't have 5.01 on front page, so, we will see when you add your file.
I'm almost sure it's region free.

They have the same MD5 sorry about that, apparently firmwares for different regions exist, but they are exactly the same? Makes no sense to me. I guess just go for it @Broomoperator , lots of sites show off different region firmwares so I guess I was confused. :P

Hi!

Can i use this files my EU console, i want to update 4.05? If i can, which one link i use?

OFW (Use this if you are upgrading/downgrading from a different OFW.)
OFW (Use this if you are going to install OFW from a PS4 that doesn't have one on it's hdd.)

I have PS4 ONE TB EU CONSOLE, my firmware is 3... something.

Grab the EU 4.05 update if you have an EU PS4.

The PS4 can't be downgraded. It shouldn't say "OFW (Use this if you are upgrading/downgrading from a different OFW.)", lol.

Where i grab that EU update? Can u link me?
Have you tried googling it? For example, "ps4 4.05 update download", something like that.

If you still can't find it, you might as well try the one from the original post. It will most likely throw out an error message if it's the wrong region. There are checks in place for this type of stuff. Or maybe with the PS4 they've added all regions to one update file (and it's why it takes up so much space).

    they need to have a strong line up on the launch titles too. I think they should move metroid prime 4 to the next console because by now it has been quite a while and there's no release date scheduled yet

    well as far as metroid prime 4 is concerned, the next system probably is similar enough to the current gen they can probably easily just slap it onto a next gen cart and call it good :P
