this is a slight mod to PS4 Server 9.00
the only files now required on the spiffs storage of the esp8266 are the .bin payloads, everything else is handled internally including generating a list of payloads.
you can still modify the html by uploading your own index.html, if there is no index.html on the spiffs storage the internal pages will be used.
if you have problems compiling the sketch make sure the ESP8266 library is up to date.
i have added the ability to switch off and on the usb device by using the pin D7 on the board to trigger a relay to control the power to the usb device.
the idea is to cut the 5v power to the usb drive and have it switched on and off by a relay which is controlled by the esp8266 device and switch it off and on during the initial exploit load which removes the need to plug and unplug the usb drive.
you can make it with a usb A female to male cable, this is a basic diagram of how to set it up.
TRR1A05D00 5 Volt SPST DIL Reed Relay
BESTAR BR-500 Reed Relay (5V, 500Ω)
another way to set it up is to use a npn transistor and cut the ground to the usb device which was shown by blumenal over on psxhax.
the parts required are:
1k resistor
1.1k resistor
BC 548 NPN transistor
this is a basic diagram of how to set that up.
this is the test cable i made and this would be the easiest for people to make.
parts used are:
D1 Mini Pro v1 ESP8266 board.
BESTAR BR-500 Reed Relay (5V, 500Ω)
0.5m USB 2.0 A Male to USB A Female
i ended up 3d printing a small box to hold the relay and ESP8266 for the cable mod, i filled the relay/wires side with hot glue and glued the box together.
the files for the box are in the STL folder and it can be printed with PLA and no supports are needed.
i made a cable to test blumenal's method and it works perfectly so if you can source those parts it is an alternative to the relay, the code needs no changes for either method to work.
i made this cable for a friend and i decided to solder the usb chip into the circuit and i made a box for a single usb cable.
the end result:
the parts used are:
D1 Mini Pro v1 ESP8266 board.
TRR1A05D00 5 Volt SPST DIL Reed Relay.
SanDisk Ultra Fit 8gb usb drive
some pictures of the mod:
the end result:
the slim usb hub has less room but you can just fit the board in.
the parts used are:
PS4 Slim USB HUB TP4-821TRR1A05D00 5 Volt SPST DIL Reed Relay.
D1 Mini ESP8266 board.
the end result:
the usb hub for the pro.
the parts used are:
TRR1A05D00 5 Volt SPST DIL Reed Relay.
D1 Mini Pro v1 ESP8266 board.
SanDisk Ultra Fit 8gb usb drive
this one was a little different i removed one of the usb ports and pulled the chip out of the usb drive and soldered it directly into the hub and then blocked the hole for the port i removed.
the end result:
