    Hacking UDPIH: USB Host Stack exploit + Recovery Menu

    Looking forward to trying this and seeing if I can restore one of my bricked WiiUs. I think they have corrupted eMMC having been left switched off for too long but you never know. Unfortunately they came to me like that so I have no backups and so no idea if they can be restored. They do boot to...

    OFW + WUP Installer + Factory Reset

    My WiiU is running OFW. It is not running any type of CFW. A long time ago I installed lots of "titles" onto my WiiU to an attached USB HDD. I used a browser exploit to run WUP Installer (GX2) and installed the titles from the SD card. I want to pass on my WiiU to a friend, but before I do I...

    PS5 ticking time-bombs?

    Some SSD controllers (e.g. the ones I design) store their firmware on a reserved bit of the NAND that is used for storage and is equally susceptible to being switched off for long periods of time. If you're keeping one in the cupboard until a CFW arrives I still think it is worth getting it out...

    PS5 ticking time-bombs?

    If you were lucky enough to a PS5 at launch (Nov 2020) you may have noticed that your 2 year warranty period is now over (quite a while ago) If you were doubly lucky to buy a 2nd unit and you've been keeping it in the box all this time, powered off, on v1.00 FW in the hopes of a CFW sometime in...

    Gaming PS4 Backwards compatiblity

    Your PS5 must be a later version, updated in the factory. The FW that came with launch PS5's doesn't play any PS4 game. I eventually updated my PS5 from the original FW using an update that came on a later game and now it plays all PS4 games.

    Gaming Thoughts on updating firmware?

    I had kept my UK one on the release firmware playing only PS5 launch titles from disc. But the UK launch firmware doesn't play PS4 games at all so I had to update I could have downloaded onto USB the first version that added PS4 compatibility but with the free "Play at home" games also being...

    Gaming PS4 Backwards compatiblity

    I can't update because there is no broadband in the house and only 3G cellular. As soon as lockdown ends I'll take it to work or a friends house.

    Gaming PS4 Backwards compatiblity

    I tried to play a PS4 game for the first time today. Not one of the PS4 discs I tried worked (Street Fighter V, Uncharted 4, Uncharted Nathan Drake Collection, Wipeout Omega) Could it be that at launch there was no PS4 support in the firmware? I've had my UK PS5 since launch, I've not gone...

    Hardware Any way to figure out if a PS5 is launch version?

    It depends which region you are in. For example the UK launch PS5's came with 20.01-xx I didn't write down but after playing Demon Souls (which installed an update) it was 20.01-14

    Gaming Game updates without system updates?

    How about if you select "don't download system updates" in the PS5 menu, if you go online do game updates still download? Or are they disabled if a newer system update exists?

    Gaming Game updates without system updates?

    Does anyone know if you can install game updates without connecting to PS Network and updating to the latest system update? I'm playing Immortals Fenyx Rising but the version in the disc has issues with VSync & tearing. Id like to update the game without updating the system, is that possible...

    Gaming PSVR: Can you use it on OFW PS5 and Jailbroken PS4?

    Yes and Yes. On the PS5 you need a PS4->USB camera adapter as PSVR only works with PS4 camera. They are free, just enter the SN of the PSVR main unit and Sony sends you one for free.

    Gaming Am I the only one who isn't enjoying Demon's Souls?

    I've had my PS5 (UK) since launch day last week and I only bought one game... Demon's Souls but I'm not enjoying it. The game is too linear after having played games like Elder Scrolls Skyrim, Assassins Creed Odyssey and Zelda Breath of the Wild. Maybe I need to play it longer?
