Phase 0.9E-R2 inner archive correlation

Date: 2026-07-19

Result: INNER_ARCHIVE_HASH_MISMATCH

Phase 0.9E-R excluded an outer byte match. R2 separately tests the plausible repack case by comparing complete inner archive.dat bytes.

Mandatory official candidate

The exact official Gezine/Y2JB 1.6 asset Y2JB_backup_1.6.4.03.zip was downloaded once from its GitHub release URL. Resume and retry were disabled. The closed and reopened file was 504395044 bytes and its locally calculated SHA-256 was b01b4f442327f9eca90ffc4506dfa58249e4ac70cb9d7488c856c9e8dfaf37b4, equal to GitHub's official digest.

It was not executed or restored. Static ZIP inventory:

The four directory entries use Unix create-system 3, create/extract version 20, external attributes 1107230720, and empty comments. The inner entry uses create system/version 3/20, extract version 20, flag bits 8, external attributes 2176188416, header offset 315, and an empty comment.

The size differs by 131072 bytes. Complete streaming comparison and both hashes disagree. Classification is INNER_ARCHIVE_HASH_MISMATCH, so the local outer cannot be classified REPACKAGED_OFFICIAL_BACKUP.

Community comparison performed

The one source-motivated community download was owendswang/Y2JB-P2JB-bdj_unpatch release v1.4-autoloader, PS5-7.61-backup-Y2JB+autoloader-20260609-en.zip. GitHub and local size were 504425435 bytes; both SHA-256 values were 8552d7c3c7bb3f078d967f56dfe1b488b37e3ed13e10c5fe97ae222482d56897.

Its inner PS5/EXPORT/BACKUP/202606100638_00/archive.dat is 504627200 bytes, CRC32 cf138df3, and SHA-256 d4f9b1ba4e32af175a3431a7734085d5420370ebb79f9a32852eb824a90e190e. It is neither the same size, hash, nor bytes as the local inner: INNER_ARCHIVE_HASH_MISMATCH.

Outer mismatch did not substitute for inner analysis. The negative inner results now independently exclude both downloaded candidates.
