No. Sony designed the PS4's flash memory to only accept firmware updates with a higher version number than the one currently installed. You cannot simply put an older version on a USB drive and "update" backward. Methods claiming you can "reset" or "restore" to 9.00 through the system menu or a factory reset are false; a factory reset only wipes user data and remains on the current firmware. The Hardware Revert Method

Error 900 is not a victory; it is a different prison. In the modding community, “downgrading to 900” means forcing the console into a state where it recognizes (a famous jailbreakable firmware) rather than a higher, non-jailbreakable one. Methods claiming you can "reset" or "restore" to 9
A PS4 has two firmware slots. When you update from Version A to Version B, Version A remains in the inactive slot. If your previous version was 12.00: You can only revert to 12.00. To reach 9.00: In the modding community, “downgrading to 900” means
This article will explain the firmware landscape of the PS4, dissect error codes SU-42130-2 and SU-42118-9 (often shortened to 1302 and 900), and explore the only fringe scenarios where "downgrading" is possible—primarily involving hardware mods like a Teensy or an ESP32.
This method involves soldering a microcontroller (like a Teensy 2.0++) directly to the PS4’s Syscon chip (the chip that manages power and fuses).
The PS4 motherboard contains two firmware "slots" (Slot A and Slot B).
