Hello everybody,

Recent PS4 scene news (especially a well-known JRPG demo leak) make me want to update my FW 4.55 to 5.05. However, as it cannot be reversed, I have some questions.

1 - Rest mode issues
Currently, on my FW 4.55 with "holy grail" payload, I am able to use rest mode in FPKG games without any trouble (even with daily usage during more than one month, I didn't get a single crash). Does "PS4HEN v2.1.1" from SiSTR0 or any other payload allow to use rest mode with stability?

2 - FPKG lost on 5.05 update
I read that updating makes the PS4 "forget" the FPKG games. As I have several FPKG games installed with saves on several user accounts (my wife has spent a lot of time on Witcher 3 :)), will the procedure "RESTORE FPKGs IN DB RESTORE" from the tutorial restore any FPKG and its attached saves?

Thank you for your confirmations about those subjects!

Occasionally backup your save data and database with SG_DB backup, 5.05 work fine, if you backup your data base and save game on regular base you should be fine.

Thank you for your feedback!
I cannot find any exact reference to the tool "SG_DB" you are referencing, is it the one shown in the following video?

Basicaly, if I manually backup through FTP files in "/system_data" and "/user", I get the same result?
About rest mode in FPKG game, is it fine?
