'Twas the night before Christmas when all through the scene, came releases galore beyond everyone's dreams. 🤗 🎄 🎁 :santa:

Stockings were hung by the chimney with care, in hopes that homebrew devs would soon be there. :notworthy: 🧦 :geek: :ninja:

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays 2020 everyone! :kitty:

Some recent updates:
From the README.md: BwE PS5 NOR Validator

BwE PS5 NOR Validator (Pre-Alpha). Designed to validate the entire raw and semi-encrypted firmware of a PlayStation 5. Created using Perl. Not recommended for use at this stage. Please wait for future developments and additional flash dumps. The next update will actually begin to extract and validate the individual files within the flash.

⚠️ DO NOT USE! Will not give valid result. Wait for proper release!

Hello!

I am BwE of betterwayelectronics.com.au and I have been creating software to validate the PlayStation's flash since 2008 with the help of psdevwiki.com :)
I also repair consoles locally in Australia and have been doing that since 2008 also. I am only recently slowing that down due to commitments with a PhD I am undertaking.

 |     \/    |    \/   \_/.  \
 \___  /\____|__  /\_____\ \_/
     \/         \/        \__>

Why isn't it free?
    This program is targeted towards businesses with bulk amounts of PS5s to repair. My products also come with support and continued development.
 
Will you add more features?
    More features are added whenever I have time to experiment with my PS5s here and or when I get a large amount of PS5 dumps from the public.
 
======================================================================================

TLDR; Will this fix my BLOD? It depends, if the console beeps once and flashes briefly then theres a higher chance. Same if there is no beep at all.
TLDR; Will this prove my BLOD is software based? Yes, if the dump comes up 100% valid then it is likely a hardware issue.

Bulk NOR Tools Menu:

    Launches the comparison app, used for the bulk diagnosis and comparison of dumps (Put multiple .bin files in the same directory). Features multiple output and filter options.
 
        1. Compare Specific Version Only
        2. Compare Specific SKU Only
        3. Compare Specific Version & SKU Only
        4. Compare All Dumps

        1. Compare Offsets (Hex)
        2. Compare Offsets (ASCII)
        3. Compare Offsets MD5
        4. Compare Offsets Entropy
        5. Double Offset Comparison (Data 1 & Data 2)
        6. Double Offset Comparison (Data 1 & MD5 2)
        7. Dynamic MD5 Calculation
        8. Compare File Entropy & Byte Count
        9. Compare File MD5
        10. Sort Dumps Into Folders (SKU - FW)
        11. Extract Dumps by Offset

NOR Menu:

1 - Select Different Dump

    Return to Main Menu!
 
2 - Extract Dump
 
    Extract based on BwE's interpretation of literal files and does so dynamically based on their size.

3 - Patch (/Patches/)

    Designed to load .bin patches from the /Patches/ directory. It will interpret and auto locate patch offsets if they've been extracted by my program. If not it will ask for a start address.

4 - Re-Generate Dump

    Attempts to make an entirely fresh dump, but with your consoles important data within. Will likely fix any corruption you may had, but this process is not perfect.
    Now supports all firmwares and all SKU's but needs more testing. Let me know of any issues, updates to the PS5 FW may require updates to this feature.

5 - Switch Between Disc/Digital

    Only uses flags within the dump itself to change whether it is a disc or digital console. May fix SU-101312-8 errors during updates.
 
6 - IDU Toggle

    Simply enable and disable IDU Mode. Use at own risk!
 
7 - Harvest MAC

    The PS5 will not boot and will beep once if your MAC address (or its hash) is corrupted, harvesting one from another console is the only solution as it cannot be generated/modified.
 
8 - Validate + Statistics
 
    Attempts to validate each file/area within the PS5, still under development and will continue to improve in the future.

    Also uses aggregate statistical data to determine if the console is significantly corrupt or not.
 
9 - Upload Only
 
    Add your dump to the collective!
