Following his S2 Mini Board Integrated in PS4 Modification and the recent PS4 BD-JB Presentation, a few months back @jose gozalez (aka josegar21481364 on Twitter) shared a PS4 Magic USB file pack with others for testing with their goal being to use the specially formatted USB device as a regular flash drive (to transfer PS4 PKGs, etc) while also using it to launch the pOOBs4 Exploit with GoldHEN v2.2.2 on Jailbroken PS4 consoles without crashes after restarting. 🤩

:idea: Among other circumstances, this could be beneficial for someone in the PlayStation 4 Scene with only a single USB device that wishes to self-host the pOOBs4 Exploit remaining connected while still having normal USB stick functionality.

:alert: He cautions those trying it should make a backup of your PS4 before using Magic USB following instructions inside the zip:

Instructions:
  1. Flash exfathax_pico.img
  2. On PC, go to start, disk management, delete volume.
  3. Format in exFAT, FAT32, or whatever you want.
  4. Pass the System Volume Information folder to the root and overwrite.
  5. Launch the hack on the PS4 with the Magic USB.
  6. Activate FTP, go to usb0, and delete the System Volume Information folder.
  7. Connect the Magic USB in the PC and format the USB, so that Windows makes the new System Volume Information folder.
  8. Done.
Magic USB Test

Magic USB test, I leave the controller and the USB connected all the time, launching the jailbreak and restarting the PS4 without fail.. when restarting it no longer crashes.

Hmmm, i dont get it. Because I use a 1gb stick i dont need to have pkg files together with exfathax pico. But why we should format the stick in the end, it deletes the hacked Systemfile Info, so i have only a clean stick ? what sense for ? Nr. 2: "USB always connected".

Its wrong, i think, after reboot and start JB, when we put the stick in the PS4, the stick would not be recognized, so like before put the stick in the port when we should do that, after the webkit exploit. Otherwise jb failed or not recognized the stick... Can someone explain this to issues, why format the stick agfter the JB and let the usb stick in the console this doesnt work. THX FOR REPLY.
