How To Clone PS4 Games - Method Discussion

    A method to clone the PS4 nand and use this to also clone any games installed on the donor machine has recently been found which we reported here a couple days ago.

    A lot of people have been asking me how to do this, so for the purposes of research here is a quick guide on how to clone a PS4...
    The following process will clone a PS4 NAND and subsequently any games installed on the 'Donor' PS4.
    This method does work an infinite amount of times, there is no limit to how many times an NAND can be cloned, so no doubt we will soon see the appearence of pre loaded PS4 NANDs for sale if Sony do not patch this method!

    Note: We do not condone piracy or online modding, this tutorial is for educational puposes only, no downloads are supplied so please do NOT ask!

    To perform the cloning process you could use either Teensy ++ 2.0 or a Raspberry Pi to create NAND dumps which you will then need to compare with PS4 AC1D Flash Tool.
    It is also worth noting that messing with a NAND can result in the bricking on your PS4.

    How To Clone PS4 NAND:

    Connect a PS4 to PSN and download games, for this tutorial we will call the main PS4 the 'Donor'.
    Connect the console that will become the clone Console to PSN and create the account (Donor Console) enable sharing and download the games.
    Dump the Clone consoles NAND several times to compare them.
    Connect the clone console to PSN again and disable sharing
    Write the dumped NAND back to the clone console
    Put the PS4 into safe mode and repair the console database.

    This is how the latest mod is being performed on firmware 2.50

    You want to pirate games in such a manner, you run the risk of bricking your console.

    Brings back memories of the early 360 method.. Reading NAND with the LPT port, dumping multiple times @ 16MB for 2 hours each time.. :dash2: :arr:

    so after speaking with razor games the guy sent me a link to faq he created,it does explain that he puts the games on from various accounts and that the accounts have blocked access once games are installed




    I know this process worked on 2.50 but as soon as i asked bout 2.51 he ended chat lol

    I removed the link to the faq haha gonna go read xpgs rules again cant remember if ths type of link was allowed lol

    i get games differantly youve probably heard of this but its my preferred way , i get the account of the person with the game i redownload it once i have it and want to play i start up the game in theyre profile then swap to mine and i can play no problems this is how a few of my friends share games and a lot less worry about bricking consoles we all buy one game each then we all get it , it saves a lot of money but does require a lot of trust
