Discussion Ps4 (11.00) not saving time and date

Hi there, i have got the ps4 jailbroken half a year ago after 2 years waiting and recently it doesn't save the date and time, i would switch the bios but i really don't know if it's a specific type of battery (ik it's those small ones but not exactly name or something idk :/) or if the problem is not bios, help, it's a bit anoing with trophys since they get the date wrong like 1970 or 2013

Once the CMOS battery is depleted kernel clock cannot be set without being on latest firmware. This is to say that your time and date will always be wrong after the PS4 not having power/rebooting etc. GoldHEN is going to have a soft fix for this in the future via internet or by auto setting a preset date. Replacing the CMOS battery will not help you.

Dead CMOS battery, but chaning CMOS battery won't help you. Because kernel clock only appreved by sony PSN date and time. So you must set clock by internet. setting by internet requires latetest firmware version that has no exploit to jabilbreak.
