So I came across 0x199's twitter today and it gave me the idea of bringing old pre-3.70 wave back.
IMO old wave looks better because it's more vibrant. Here's what it looks like on pre-3.70 firmware:
I tried to extract these files from decrypted firmware but it seems like wave files aren't included in normal update file, and I can't...
Anyone has wave0.fbxd and wave1.fbxd from pre-3.70 firmware?
I've been researching the background wave on PS4 and if it's possible to change the wave colors, like what we had on PS3.

PS4 uses a .fbxd format, which is probably a custom 3D .fbx format. This file isn't signed by the PS4 itself so changes to this file will stick after reboot.
