    Features
    • Homebrew Enabler
    • Jailbreak
    • Sandbox Escape
    • Debug Settings
    • External HDD Support
    • VR Support

    • External HDD Format 7.xx Support
    • FW Version Spoof to 7.02 (5.05) / 7.51 (6.72)
      • Doesn't enable PSN Access
      • Useful for PSVR user's (requires spoof) otherwise systems ask to update and will not proceed, due to psvr having independent firmware for the headset and is looking for later console firmware. this type of spoof resolves that issue for PSVR.
      • Note: Some backported games will ask for update of firmware even after being backported, this spoof should fix those issues .
    • Debug Trophies Support
    • sys_dynlib_dlsym Patch
    • UART Enabler
    • Never Disable Screenshot
    • Remote Play Enabler

@Joonie , you've probably already looked but here it is. my ps4 pkg viewer was messed up originally showing it as an official pkg, but I've corrected it. someone on here asked about this particular game, and he said it forced him to update to 6.72 just to play it. I know the update is for that system version, so maybe it just can't be played without a day one update:

The base version worked fine on 6.72 though, on 5.05 I was able to see the intro, but with an update it would immediately kick back to ShellUI with a CE error code. TBH, I would just update to 6.72 if he really wants to play that game on PS4, Otherwise use PC..

where did you buy that 4TB internal hdd? I thought 2TB was max due to 9.5mm basically.

AFAIK, it's up to 8TB on Pro.

 
@Joonie , both update and base game black screened for me, but I think I've fixed the base game. I'll test it later. I have three more games to test. then, I have maybe one or two more then I'll fixed all games but control.

edit: the red dead redemption 2 update also had a problem. I've lumped those games into "can't be backported" folder. I'll update at some point, but not until I get my saves resigned to my other account. I think you have to use little endian there just like with the vita.

Good luck on Control, I never got it working on 5.xx

Btw, Control is one of those games would KP if you apply backport fix/patch on 6.xx, it will shutdown immediately unless you unfix the mem hole patch at 0xA0 in ELF.

RDR2 has a problem with Pro/Neo mode on 5.05, if you change your resolution to 1080p then it will load fine with the update. this doesn't happen on 6.72.
 
@Joonie , do you mean 1080p on the system? I have a framemeister, so it's always 1080p resolution or upscaled on my tv. unfortunately, I could never get the red dead redemption update to work. I've had multiple kernel panics testing these games, that's for sure. it's frustrating.

that's weird, if 1080p is what you're using then you could probably disable NEO mode on param.sfo.
 
Never tried that game though, did you try selfutil and manually fix the memhole and sdk revision ?

yeah, what happens is it kernel panics when exiting as well. however, it doesn't scan system storage, so it's almost more like a reset. someone on temp asked me to try fixing the game, but it doesn't seem to work. 26 successes and two failures with control being the other one.

edit: I'll update once kiiwii updates his frontend. I don't think he thinks it's stable enough yet. I dunno.

I never used those GUI backporter apps so I don't know what they use for unFselfing, sometimes unfself corrupts ELF so that's why I asked whether you tried selfutil or not. Selfutil's not compatible with flatz's script btw.
 
I dunno. I just use the scripts. I suppose I could do it manually, but I don't know if that will change anything. the person mentioned the game not working, but I don't know what that means. it's odd that it would have this effect. no other game has. even ones I screwed up would normally crash, then sometimes not get out of the crash, so I'd have to hard reset.

just search "ORBI" string on ELF see if it exists, if you can't then that means it's already corrupted.
 
@Joonie , btw, out of desperation, I used someone else's fix for ghostbusters. same thing happened. the fix must not have been checked beyond it loading.
 
@Joonie , I fixed 25 games, 2 failures (ghostbusters and control) and four failed updates including the red dead redemption one and v rally 4. that's a pretty good ratio as that's all of them. now, I'm just going to do the save mounter thing next to decrypt my saves. then, I'll format. I'm going to buy a 5TB external hdd, which I heard from a friend is the biggest you can use without an external power supply or y cable.
