How to Jailbreak Your PS4 on Firmware 9.00 or Lower!

This step-by-step guide will show you how to easily jailbreak a PlayStation 4 running firmware 9.00! This tutorial works for the original PS4, PS4 Slim, and PS4 Pro as long as the firmware 9.00 is installed on the system. You CANNOT downgrade your PS4 to a lower firmware, if you are on a higher firmware your only choices are to wait for further updates to come to higher firmwares or to purchase another PS4 on 9.00 or lower.

The method of installation covered here involves directing your PS4's DNS settings to Al Azif's PS4 Exploit Host which contains payloads needed to jailbreak the console. This video will will guide you through how to update your console's firmware, set up the jailbreak, block future firmware updates, as well as general usage with installing games or homebrew PKG files. This also covers how to utilize the caching option Al Azif's host provides, so you can completely disconnect your PS4 from any network and still use the browser to jailbreak your system if needed.

Finally, a stable new jailbreak. Works 90% of the time for me. Mad props to the creators. JB 7.55 sucked so much. Miss me with that.

[AttractionSpot]

NOTE: There was something he didnt discuss here that happened to me that might happen to you. If you go to the webpage and click GoldHen and start the process and it says "Not Enough System Memory." This is NORMAL and just click ok and wait for the screen to popup the next step. Inster the USB Flash Drive and wait for it to say its unsupported and wait for it to make the notification go away. Remove the USB Flash Drive. Then click ok. You get ANOTHER "Not Enough System Memory." notification. AGAIN this is NORMAL. Click ok and let it finish until you see the GoldHen Notification and then it will say You're all set!

IC dont know why with some people they get the "Not Enough System Memory" but some do and thats ok it will still work.

Of course I would still double check your system memory FIRST before starting this jailbreak just to make sure your storage isnt completely full.

Thank you for helping us jailbreak our PS3 and PS4!!!

[TheKingazog]

Greetings Mr.Mario. Once again I want to give you a huge thanks for taking your time making well-explained step-by-step tutorials like this.

[jsb]

Already jb my 9.00 a couple days ago but watching anyway because i might learn something new!

[s.y]

I don’t have ps4 at the moment, but i enjoy watching your video.

[GoobyGooby]

i checked my firmware and its EXACTLY 9.00 and it feels good.

[kevinpanini]

literally the best tutorial, clear concise and helped me with all my problems thx

[JJRol.]

This exploit has been a great christmas present. Thanks for making easy and good tutorials on things like this :)

[DJKaYLaR]

Its good to see high firmware jailbreaks it means its much easier to buy a ps4 of ebay and be able to jailbreak it theres a very good chance that someone who is selling their console hasn't played it in months therefore they may not of updated it i remember back in the day it was difficult to get a hold of a low firmware console

[danijelvrebac]

It worked, thanks. Last year i've used your PS3 tutorial how to install Hen, you are #1 :D

[drnkbeer]

Another brilliant guide Mario, don't worry about length of it. I really appreciate how you go through every conceivable option or issue someone might have, and ensure that they're not left confused.

Only just recently exposed to HEN after picking up a slim PS3 followed your guide on that too, only used full CFW before. But with the cutoff being 9.00 turns out I have a standard PS4 and PS4 pro that are eligible! A very nice Christmas Present.

Thank you as always, happy holidays

[birdley]

got home from college and plugged in my ps4 I haven’t used in about a year. I’m so happy

[RDelacroix]

For flashing the img file, I like to use 'USB Image Tool' instead. It will only list flash media (flash drives or SD cards) so there is little worry about accidentaly overwriting your external hard drives. Anyways, Thanks for the tutorial. 👍

[linconabrahams]

I have watched all you ps3 and 4 jailbreaks it is always a good experience

[bignugs]

Legend still in 2024 this is the best totorial I can find somewhere clear and cover it all many thanks you will save people many hours of headache thankyou we appreciate you dude love from the UK brother

[nocereee]

I got to the section where I tested my connection, it said I’m connected but Nat type failed etc. and when I went to go on users guide I just get a “cannot connect to the server” error. Has anyone has this issue and knows a fix or workaround?

[noreenkashif]

You know what, i thought u quitted these jailbreak tutorials but u dropped this tutorial ly mrMario :)

[priesermax]

Hey guys,
I tried this out, but I'm always getting an error when opening the users guide:
"ERROR:
SSLerror:
Couldn't resolve hostname
ok"
I've tried using DHCP and the manual DNS settings but also a static IP outside the DHCP range.
And of course I've put in the DNS servers correctly, multiple times.
Does anyone have an answer?

[inco-gneito]

Had to use the furthest down usb port, or if its sitting horizontally, the usb port all the way to the right. Worked fine after that. The whole thing shut down and restarted and has the hen in the software information now. Thanks and great tutorial.
