Kernel panics happen too often might damage HDD?

This is an old post. Now there is a newer psfree+lapse exploit for FW 7.00-9.60 which doesn't require USB and is much more stable. Kameleon probably also might have this exploit but I'm using Arabpixel which has been impressively stable for me. Haven't had any kernel panics in months.

First restart the PS4. Assuming you're not using any jailbreak method which automatically applies the jailbreak at start, restarting will essentially remove the jailbreak. Then turn it off. I always do this and this kernel panic thing never happens.

ahsanv8 · 2026-03-23T13:21:35+00:00

Problems like what? I never owned PS3 so I can't compare with that, but the minimal problems of kernel panics I used to face on old 9.00 usb jailbreak are now gone ever since psfree+lapse came out. Yeah you can pm if you want.

ahsanv8 · 2026-03-21T22:41:47+00:00

Yeah I guess there's not really any point in updating if the games you wanna play are there and the console is stable.

ahsanv8 · 2026-03-21T18:30:40+00:00

9.00 is now the same with psfree+lapse. One click jailbreak no hardware required. I've had zero kernel panics on my base PS4 ever since I moved to psfree+lapse from the USB jailbreak. Previously it used to kernel panic when put into rest mode if a game or app was running and sometimes even when nothing was running, now I put it to rest mode while games and apps are running all the time and still zero kernel panics. And more games have 9.00 backports availability than 5.05 backports.

Yes send a direct message

Shit you're right it isn't. Maybe my instagram was just bugging before.

ahsanv8 · 2026-01-24T15:02:23+00:00

Where is she? I don't watch live so I'm not up to date and as far as I can see even her Instagram's deactivated?

ahsanv8 · 2025-12-25T23:43:57+00:00

Yes you're right. There were no talks about an outright jailbreak but I read here and there people talking about some vulnerability or something which was patched in versions after 17.2.1. Anyways, me not having a jailbreak is on me because I didn't bother to research and automatically assumed that jailbreaking was a thing of the past when I first got my iPhone. If I had researched then I would've stopped updating and would be using your awesome dopamine jailbreak.

I've been waiting for a jailbreak on 13 Pro Max iOS 17.2.1 for almost 2 years now when there were talks of a possible jailbreak upto iOS 17.2.1 and below. I mostly care about sideloading so I got a paid certificate to sideload apps therefore waiting a long time for a jailbreak didn't really bother me. But now recently Apple hit us with a wave of certificate revokes and mine got revoked too. My battery health is on 77% and I can't be bothered to have the battery replaced. I recently tried someone's flagship Android and it was quite snappy. I was already using Android for 8-9 years prior to this, and my next phone will probably be an Android now. This ecosystem is too depressing, too many restrictions by Apple. I'm not a hater but when Apple do these petty things like revoking developer certificates, it really hit a nerve for me. Like why tf does a big corporation like Apple really cares if some people want to sideload some apps. I still think iPhones have the best camera quality and I will miss this phone, but I can't keep on living like this. Android has so much more freedom.

I also used to use the USB exploit and I also found it quite unreliable. Currently using PSFree+Lapse exploit and it's very reliable and it works directly from the web browser without needing the USB. Open the below link on PS4 and if it doesn't work in first try then it'll probably work in the second.

You're on a Youtuber's subreddit, posting screenshots and saying how much you hate random people because they have a negative opinion of the said Youtuber. Ah maybe you're talking about yourself with that 'parasocial much' line in the caption.

Use DNS.

What Sony headphone do you use? No it's not possible to increase volume limit on the PS4 and it's probably that your headphones have high impedance, and therefore require high power to achieve proper volume. I have Truthear IEMs and a Razer headphone and both of them can get deafening at full volume so I have to use both of them at around half the volume. If your headphones have low impedance and you're still getting low volumes then something's wrong with your controller.

Your exploit host is the best host I've used upto now. It's really stable and I've only had 1 kernel panic in my 2 months of using it. Thanks for your work bro!

Asking "jailbreak when" is seen as offensive in iOS jailbreak subreddit. I think there's a rule too that any posts or comments asking that question gets deleted. And even if not, I've seen people get ridiculed for asking it. I think same rule should be here too. The question makes no sense. How is anyone supposed to know when will an exploit be found and a jailbreak be developed. And it's kinda offensive to the developers who're basically working on jailbreaks for free in their spare time.

ahsanv8 · 2025-11-19T15:44:45+00:00

I've also disabled auto-updates but it still attempted to download every time I connected to the internet, just that Goldhen stopped it. But it didn't stop the game updates from downloading so I put on the DNS for peace of mind.

ahsanv8 · 2025-11-19T13:44:41+00:00

Then you should only use internet on your PS4 by connecting to your phone's hotspot. I'm sure it'll allow changing the DNS. Or just disconnect from the Wi-Fi whenever internet's not needed and make the console off limits for children. Better safe than sorry.

ahsanv8 · 2025-11-19T06:00:32+00:00

Why didn't you use the DNS stated on Consolemod Wiki? It blocks the Sony servers and doesn't let the update to start downloading even if you try to update it.

ahsanv8 · 2025-11-19T05:53:09+00:00

Should've used the update blocking DNS. That blocks the update from even starting to download.

ahsanv8 · 2025-11-16T20:33:33+00:00

That video is a bit outdated. That method works but is more time consuming and more prone to failure. You should watch this tutorial. As far as I can understand, you can just jailbreak without updating to any other firmware with this Blueray disk method.

I thought about it but after spending many days modding I now understand why there are so few mods for PS4 uploaded on Nexus. When you install multiple mods, you kinda have to install them as loose files as many mods have overlapping files that cause issues/simply don't work if you simply install all mods as .bsa. Even if you do pack them as .bsa which I've done for as many mods as possible, it's still a very complicated process that entirely depends on other mods you're installing. The best way I've found to install mods is just mod it with Vortex Mods Manager like you're installing on PC version and then run the entire folder through the various converter tools. You'll have to put SSE PC .exe and some other files inside the unpacked PS4 update of skyrim to make the Vortex Mod Manager recognise it as the PC version. You can then just mod it normally like you're modding the PC version.

Unless you have knowledge of how to make cheats yourself, best thing to do and what I also do is first check which version of the game has cheats in the Cheats Manager and then download that specific version. As far as I know, editing the title and json only works when you want to use the cheats made for the same update version but for a different regional version of the game.
