= Glitching, Dumping & Flashing =
== Method 1 ==
Based on the attack outlined by Fail0verflow [https://fail0verflow.com/blog/2018/ps4-syscon] '''Wildcard''' designed the following glitch using a Teensy: [https://github.com/VV1LD/SYSGLITCH].
Using '''Wildcard''''s shellcode but using a different methodology on his GitHub, you can copy the original Syscon and dump it to a new Renesas chip with comparatively greater ease. '''Guide available on BwE's GitHub.'''
You can also flash to the original SCE syscon using a different shellcode but this is a commercial product sold by [[User:BwE]].
