PS5 Questions

Hey did anyone aver see this mistake before? Ps5 is really expensive and hard to find in Brazil still and this guy is selling it really cheap cause he doesn’t know how to fix it. Couldn’t find anything online about this, any tips?

Thanks!

It seems like IDU mode is active.

You can exit the IDU mode by changing the offset at the nor: 0x001C9600 = 01 (IDU on) → 00 (IDU off)

I have recently purchased a PS5 on eBay and it was in IDU mode, I can get to Staff Mode, and I have tried all of the normal Reset, Restore, Restore with Offline USB, Rebuild DB and Repair Disk and I can not get out of IDU mode. The firmware on the PS5 is too high to enable the Debug Menu where I could turn it off. Is there any other way to get out of it? I see the comment about changing the offset, how would one doe that?

DUMP NOR and use hex edit software to change to offset

Are there detailed instructions how to do this and how to get the info back to the PS5 to post the fix?

Buy a programmer with clamp adapter, like this one:
https://www.amazon.de/TECNOIOT-CH341A-EEPROM-Programmer-Software/dp/B07RKXSMKH

Download NeoProgrammer or something similar
Download HxD or some other hexeditor

  1. put the clamp on the nor ic
  2. put the programmer inside your PC
  3. start NeoProgrammer on your PC
  4. Try to “Detect” your nor ic or choose it manually
  5. Read IC
  6. Save the original dump
  7. Open a copy of the dump in HxD
  8. Goto 0x001C9600 and change 01 (IDU on) to 00 (IDU off)
  9. Save the edited dump
  10. Open the edited dump inside NeoProgrammer
  11. Write the edited dump back to the nor ic
