(chep game ) PS4: GoldHEN 2.4b17.2 released, adds support for Firmwares 10.00 / 10.01. Support for 9.60 is next.
That’s it, that’s the Tweet. If you’re on Firmwares 10.00 or 10.01 and had the patience to not update to 11.00, then rejoice, as GoldHEN 2.4b17.2 (ugh, Sistr0, man, these version numbers are getting out of control…) is now out specifically for you.
Nothing “fancy” with this new release, only the best CFW out there for PS4 making its way to more happy users.
Developer Sistr0 also announced that he’s working on support for 9.60 and a refactoring of the Network servers.
Note: If you are running a PS4 on Firmware 11.02, 11.50, or above, this release is not for you. Check our PS4 Jailbreak page for details on what you can do if you’re on 11.02 and above..
What is GoldHEN for PS4?
GoldHEN is a Homebrew ENabler for the PS4, packed with features. For all intents and purposes, you can think of it as a PS4 Custom Firmware. It offers in particular a remote package installer, an FTP Server, and a binLoader, meaning it’s pretty much the only thing you need to load when you Jailbreak your PS4, to have a lot of options at your disposal.
GoldHEN also supports plugins, cheats and patches, with easy access to online repositories for those game mods.

GoldHEN 2.4b17.2 – What’s new?
This version brings support for the newly released exploit (PPPwn), specifically for firmwares 10.00 and 10.01. Support for Firmware 11.00 was added in the previous release two weeks ago.
Sistr0 credits the following people for this particular release
Hi all! The new beta is out! this version adds support for 10.00 / 10.01. This release supports both the previous WebKit exploits and the new pppwn, but for this it requires a custom stage2 that I wrote and released the code ( github.com/SiSTR0/PPPwn ) Downlaod link: github.com/GoldHEN/GoldHEN/releases/tag/2.4b17.2 GoldHEN has always been and will be free for all
I’d like to take this opportunity to thank the people without whom we wouldn’t have this (and other) release today:
- – TheFlow for releasing his exploit (and not just this one) to everyone.
- – flat_z for conceiving and publishing the hen for ps4 with a writeup.
- – vortex for implementing the first versions of the hen.
- – golden for creating projects that helped me understand many things.
- – OSM for his cool Orbis Toolbox.
- – Hippie68 for his work on the new FTP server.
- – Al_Azif for providing various necessary resources.
- – SocraticBliss for his RE scripts.
- – Illusion for game patches and more.
- – bucanero for his work on the cheat manager.
- – All the cheat developers who shared their trainers with everyone.
Thanks to the testers who had so much patience:
- – Big_Wadger
- – EchoStretch
- – Opoisso893
- – mbcrump
- – MODDED WARFARE
- – vapour
Last but not least, my friends ctn and kameleon for their continuous support, not only technical!
Thanks also to everyone who supported my project on kofi!
Download and run GoldHEN for PS4 10.00/10.01/11.00

GoldHEN 2.4b17 or above is required for PS4 11.00 Compatibility via the PPPwn Exploit.
You can Download GoldHEN 2.4.b17.2 on sistr0’s github here
How to run GoldHEN on PS4 11.00/10.00/10.01
- Download TheFlow’s PPPwn.
- (optional) Make sure you run PPPwn Vanilla at least once
- This step isn’t required, but in general you should be familiar with how to run PPPwn before attempting top run goldHEN. This will make any troubleshooting easier for you down the road. Instructions on how to run PPPwn are on the project’s github here. Once you’ve managed to run PPPwn “as is” and are confident you understand the process, move on to the next step.
- Replace PPPwn’s stage2.bin with Sistr0’s special stage2.bin which can be found here. (note: Stage2.bin is also included in the download link above) There are several files in the archive. Pick the one that matches your firmware, and rename it to stage2.bin
- Important: this stage2.bin file is required to run GoldHEN, and only works on Firmwares 9.00, 10.00, 10.01 and 11.00 at the time of writing.
- Download then extract goldhen.bin and copy it at the root of a usb stick (do not rename it. Name should be exactly goldhen.bin. If in doubt, check this file)
- Insert the usb stick in your PS4
- Run the PPPwn exploit. At this point this should automatically:
- Run PPPwn stage 1
- trigger stage2.bin from Sistr0 which will look for goldhen.bin on your usb stick
- stage2.bin will copy goldhen.bin from the usb to /data/GoldHEN/payloads/goldhen.bin on your console’s hard drive.
- Note: From that point, the usb stick shouldn’t be necessary, even next time you want to trigger the exploit ,as a local copy of goldhen is now on your hard drive (if you use the usb in the future, it will overwrite the local copy again. Probably useful for updates of goldhen, etc…)
- GoldHEN should start at that point
Please note that once you are confident the exploit works on your console, there exists alternative ways to run it, often faster, which rely on a C++ implementation of the PPPwn exploit. Those versions can of course run GoldHEN as well and I urge you to give them a try once you’ve grasped the process. Some details here.
