PS4: New syscon tools released (PS4 Wee Tools 0.6, PS4 NOR Validator 2.2.9) – Wololo.net appeared on wololo.net by Wololo.net.

With the recent lack of news (or even rumors) for PS4 Jailbreaks on the software front, the scene’s attention has been focused on hardware solutions, in particular the Firmware “Rollback” (or revert, if you prefer) mechanism, useful in particular for those on firmware 9.03, who can go back to 9.00, a Jailbreakable firmware.

Following Abkarino and Egycnq‘s release of Syscon tools a couple weeks ago, developer Andy_MaN has released PS4 Wee Tools (updated to 0.5 this week), a tool that lets you manipulate the PS4 NOR and Syscon. In parallel, BWE has updated PS4 NOR Validator to version 2.2.9 today.

What is PS4 Wee Tools

From the official readme:

PS4 wee tools help to work with PS4 nor and syscon dumps.

It is free open source alternative for BwE’s PS4-NOR-Validator & Syscon-Patcher written in Python to keep it simple.

Currently it provides base functional and can not fully replace those tools.

PS4 Wee Tools Features

Common

NOR tool

  • PS4 Nor dump info
  • FW detection in slots (experemental)
  • Flags toggle:
    • boot mode, safe boot, update mode, arcade mode, kiosk mode (idu)
    • registry recovery, manu, button swap, memory budget, slow hdd mode
  • System flags cleaning
  • Memory clock editing (GDDR5)
  • SAMU boot flag edit
  • Downgrade by slot switch
  • Entropy stats

Syscon tool

  • Syscon check
  • Patchable check
  • Show active SNVS slot
  • Manual SNVS patch
  • Auto SNVS patch (4 modes)

The tool itself isn’t useful without proper hardware (and matching skills) to access and patch the syscon. A Teensy 2.0++ seems to be the base, along with other required components
