Yesterday i tried everything and all i got was errors trying to get it to update from the update files i downloaded from the Playstation website v5.05. The problem with it was that it was always giving a update file corrupted error. Please i recently bought a PS4 on ebay in an AS IS condition (quite cheap because i don't have the money), in the hope of repairing it for my use. I have been going everywhere trying to get some help until i found your post. Note: This is the firmware your PS4 must be on to take advantage of the BadIRET exploit. Minor changes and was the last update until version 2.0. Follow the screens to complete the updateįeatures added in the PlayStation 4 1.76 System / Firmware update:.Connect the USB memory stick to the PS4, then on the PS4 go to Settings > System Software Update.Copy the extracted PS4UPDATE.PUP to the USB memory stick in the PS4 > UPDATE folder.On a FAT32 formatted USB memory stick create a folder called PS4, then inside this folder create a folder called UPDATE.Extract the PS4UPDATE.PUP with WinRAR or another program capable of extracting zip files.Download the System Update from the link above.This will allow the PS4's operating system to be re-installed on the new hard drive. The System Recovery will only be required if you upgrade the hard drive inside the PS4. The system update is all that you require to update a PS4 and is generally what you will want to download in most cases. System Recovery: Download PlayStation 4 System Recovery 1.76
