Mathieulh PS4 Scene PSA: Get PS4 Pro on 3.70 OFW, PS4 CFW Rumors!

Not long after the Chaitin Tech PS4 Exploit which was patched in 4.06 OFW we reported on a PS4Pro 0Day Exploit... and this weekend PlayStation Developer @Mathieulh tweeted a friendly PSA reminder to the PS4 scene to get a PlayStation 4 Pro on 3.70 OFW while you still can and DON'T update beyond 4.05 OFW if you want to be able to run unsigned code including PS4 CFW (TaiHEN perhaps?), PS4 version spoofers and homebrew when available!

Sony's most recent 4.07 OFW update added even more security patches, so once again steer clear of updating your PlayStation 4 as we all await Fail0verflow's CCC 2016 presentation later this month.

Here are some related Tweets from Mathieulh:

Finally, those of you who have been around the scene several years may recognize the name @racer0018 as a dedicated scener and console modder extraordinaire... today he shared a bit of information on PS4 Custom Firmware (CFW) in a post HERE.

That's the most exciting post I've read lately regarding the public PS4 Jailbreak status, and coming from a credible longtime scener I trust what he's stated implicitly... so be patient, good things WILL come to those who wait and remember patience is a virtue!

To recap: Anything below PS4 Firmware 4.06 is safe to remain on for this undisclosed PS4 Jailbreak exploit we're all waiting to surface, and thanks to @B7U3 C50SS, @Cicko24, @Fimo, @HydrogenNGU, @kazookid0, @SockEE and @VultraAID in the PSXHAX Shoutbox for the leads.

Can you still get a PS4 Pro that's not got OFW past 4.06 on it in stores or buying it online? If not, I will just be looking for people selling them online from forums like this one.

Ya... I am worried that hackers are afraid to release the hacks because of the example they made of geohotz last generation.

I know I would.. If I had the time to work on it.

But if theya are really afraid of sony sueing them, they could always release it anonymously on a separate twitter account for instance

so in short nothin new - 1.76 CFW confirmed again but not 3.5+ (no proof of "backup loader"):

I've been following the scene since 2002, and if something is coming out it will just be out. No rumors, no false hopes and no teasers and specially no twitter nonsense talk. A hack will come out one day, but don't tell people to go buy a $399 system when you have no proof.
