Hackinformer Your device needs to transform, we are here to inform
If you have been following the PS4 homebrew scene you must know that the PS4 has exploits on firmware 4.05, 4.55, 5.05, and recently 6.72. Like others, including myself, I am trying to get my hands on one of these units that can use these exploits.
It seems that the PS4 bundles that are brand new and sealed will be your best bet for either FW. So I have compiled a list of PS4 bundles including their release dates and firmware dates.
Also, a good idea would be to go to the pawnshop and ask for the oldest system that was pawned instead of the most recent one since the most recent could be updated.
This method could weed out which one to get on the lowest firmware or if you’re super nice just ask to check the FW version because you’re looking for a certain one. Make sure to tell them you will buy it once you find it, just so they will know that they will get a sale for the trouble of checking each PS4 they have. 😉
The firmware releases kind of correspond to the release dates of the bundles that I listed. So let’s proceed! And please post below in the comment section the release date and firmware included the bundle if you land a unit running these firmware’s or below, thanks.
Included is a link to all the firmware history, oddly the release date of FW6.72 is not on there but the release date of FW5.01 was on , and FW6.71 was around June 8th, 2019.

5.05 & 6.72 firmware, if I’m not mistaken should be on the consoles, since most of these consoles were released weeks, even months after or before any update. As always this info should be taken lightly as some units could be on different FW depending if more were made at a later date. Sadly most of these bundles are discontinued and can be very hard to find, but they still can be found. So Happy hunting!!
