PS4 restore will it update firmware?

[mikkelzzz3]

Hey guys,
I've looked everywhere for this question without success, so I hope the awesome community here can help me out! (I'm using the same hardrive as I have invested in an SSHD)

1: I have a PS4 firmware 6.00

2: I bought a PS4 Pro firmware 5.05

3: Did a backup of my PS4 6.00

4: Moved SSHD from PS4 to PS4 Pro

5: Installed SSHD on PS4 Pro, and downlaoded and installed the 5.05 recovery update. (PS4 Pro works, still on 5.05)

Now the question is. If I want to restore the backup I did in step 3, would this update the firmware to v. 6.00, or would it only restore games, save data etc.?

Restoring a backup from a higher FW version will update your console.

What he said ^ also i don't see why you would restore content from a ps4 on firmware 6.00 to a 5.05. Not like you can access games that require higher firmware.

 

[mikkelzzz3]

Because PSN was signed in on it. I know you have some extra features if the PS4 was logged in with PSN once, and the console therefore activated. (Like PSN game updates). And I know you won't have access to PSN itself. But you will be able to do the game updates / regular backup process / remote play.

Oh well the guy I bought it off left his PSN signed it, and he told me I didn't have to sign out so that I could play his games. I'll just create a backup from that HDD, and then restore it in to my SSHD. (Since that backup will be 5.05)

Try using a different browser, or incognito mode. Must be a browser problem, works fine here.

You don't "unhide" content hidden by other members.

Roger that, removed

Though it is still in the quote you made from me, so you would need to edit your reply as well.

Hmm, don't know how that works. But the backup was taken from a non-jailbroken PS4.

 

[scunnyemce]

even a external drive to ps4 transfer ur data to it then plug it into jailbroke one ?
