Just so I can get ready.

What am I supposed to do exactly?

Just be able to go on your PS4 (will work on normal PS4 or Pro so don't worry if you don't have Pro). All you're doing is adding a new user and signing in with the email address and password of the burner account. Then going to settings, fw update and going to the beta fw. Once installed you can delete the account.

Ignore it, it's just the possibility for you to downgrade if you were having issues. Go into system -> system information and you'll see 4.50 beta 2.

Usually it'd show the newest beta version and the latest release if you wanted to roll back. But as an user without a beta key it seems to ignore it's running a beta FW and suggest an "update" to latest release.

Just saying that because there's a system option to background download and/or automatically update the FW in standby, so might be a good idea to disable both just in case it decides to "update" back to 4.07.

Yup, but you might be waiting a short amount of time in the queue :p

Fair point, but I don't think it'll go down the way automatically.

It'll update. Back when Sony first had betas there was a proxy trick you could use to get the beta installed. Updates then installed fine afterwards.

Imagine you sold your PS4 whilst on a beta FW and a new user bought it and you got stuck in limbo :p

Really? Daaaamn. Sony....

Seems you are going to need to fully download before someone else can come in. Might have to change this so each GAF member can forward on the details once they're done. Post when you're finished WP and then Primethius can go, then back to Ogawa-san.

Can I get back on the list. Home now

Thank you for this! I'd like to add my name to the list of people waiting, even if it takes a few hours from now if you're still willing.

Once 2blackcats is done you can go on before On Demand seeing as you did ask early.



Sure, it'll either be me or we'll be working a GAF conga line where each person just passes on when done.

How many are in the queue?

At this point I don't even know, pray4me. Heh, a few, we're at post #988. Slow going because a user has to stay logged in till download is done, but if everyone is patient you'll get in eventually. Which is better than not getting in at all or having to wait till Sony send out wave 2 in a week or so.
