Well i'm hearing fake rumors about incoming 5.55 Jailbreak , will it be released in the next month ? Cuz i guess it will not come this month

 

[PuffinMan]

@JOHN FIST No one can really tell when its gonna be released, you should follow devs on twitter they'll let us know when its time.

 

[IshotJR]

@0verzealous: When did Specdev say this ?, he posted a screenshot on twitter of him updating to 5.55 saying "see you on the other side" but that's about it, surely that just means he's working on it ?

 

[JOHN FIST]

, yeah but i just have a feeling that its gonna come out in the first 2 weeks of October. but u r also right , anything can happen at any time... I hope they release it soon

 

[Brigan]

Wrong. As of now, specter, qwerty, Mathieu and others have said that they ARE NOT working on 5.55. They want to be left alone. Which to me means that the ps4 jb scene is dead until different devs revive it.

 

[PuffinMan]

@JOHN FIST just hang in there don't lose hope, eventually it'll be there before you know it

 

[DEFAULTDNB]

when you run hen that activity must surely be logged somewhere.

Regardless of HEN being active or not it’s written to a file and unless we can delete it off whichever of the 15 partitions on the HDD or if it’s on another area of memory written somewhere. I’m not familiar enough with PS4 internals yet.

 

[PuffinMan]

@DEFAULTDNB Oh, thank you for enlightening me

 

[rickalk]

Just enjoy other things and try not to think about when things will be released, much less stressful

 

[Brigan]

I have a question. The assumption is that the devs wont release a jb update until sony patches it. Now... I'm no genius... but unless sony employees are a bunch of highly functioning retards, wouldn't they just not patch it ever? Causing the devs to never release another jb? I hope that makes sense
