Hacking Cannot play pkg games, something missing ?

[a5723797]

Hi, folks

I am very new to PS4 jailbreak scene and get some problems.
I got a PS4 Pro 7.51 and followed the jailbreak steps.
I can see the Debug menu in Setting and use it to install some pkg games to test,
It looks all good, however, all of the installed games are with padlock icons and cannot be played.

I found some posts saying those pkgs are encrypted and cannot be played.
So I test some(about 10) different pkg from different sites, but all of them have the same results.

Did I miss something ?
I tried Mira & Goldhen1.0/1.1 (tested the ftp function, it does work).
I directly go to Debug Menu and install those pkg games directly after Mira/Goldhen done loading.
Do I need to load some extra payloads or something ? Didn't get any info from google.
Or I just had bad luck that all pkgs I tried are encrypted?

Any suggestions are appreciated.

P.S. Sorry for my weird English.

just load some exploit host, best way is locally, but networking involved. Once it is loaded, load hen or goldhen payload. After that, install some game in fake pkg format, and it is ready.

Try and install this pkg. Its a homebrew file manager for exploited PS4's.
If this installs and works it will prove that the exploit is working and that the game pkg's you downloaded are probably encrypted.

PS4-Xplorer 1.32

No more problems with FW autodetection.
Multiple PKG installation at a time.
Fixed text encoding.
Update Image Viewer.

Thank to @notzecoxao and @thedarkprogr for the great work with the plugin.

Thanks to @DouglasSampai15 for beta test.https://t.co/ShYjQcuAIz pic.twitter.com/oNVdKzxMWd

Also you can open your downloaded pkgs with this and it will tell you at the bottom left of the window if the pkg is official or fake. (You need them to be fake).

Thank you so much!!! I will try this first, this is exactly what I want at first.
I read posts saying that we cannot know whether the pkg is fake signed or encrypted, so I give up finding something like this which can tell fake signed or encrypted. Also I will try the homebrew later. Thanks

EDIT: The pkg viewer shows (fake) at the bottom so I guess the pkg is fake and I will try the homebrew...
EDIT2: The same for the homebrew, so I didn't jailbreak successfully. I will read the tutorial one more time...

Thanks for clarifying. This just looks like what I did exactly. So I didn't miss any crucial step, I guess.
I will try the method mentioned above.

EDIT2: Seems jailbreak failed. I don't get it. The steps look same...don't know why...

Hi, folks, these are my step snapshots, can anyone check for me ?
a. webkit process

b. exploit (tried 6/3 & 5/27 version)

c. Gold Hen / Mira (tried Gold Hen 1.1/1.0 & Mira V1/V2b)

d. press PS button back to XMB, but as it shows, there is still a padlock on installed homebrews/games

Thanks.

Thats for 7.55 I dont think it supports 7.51
The odd thing is I didnt think GoldHEN for 7.55 would even load on 7.51.

I also suspected the version problem then I tried another one but still not work. It says "this ONLY works on FWs 7.50 to 7.55." so I assumed 7.51 was supported by this one but still no luck. (this screen shot is taken from my pc for convenience)
I will try other packages or update to 7.55 if no luck and try again...

Base on the picture it looks that is for 7.55 not 7.51, since there is padlock on the app, games it means the jailbreak fail.

 

[godreborn]

of all the 7.5x firmwares to be on, 7.51 is considered the worst. I think someone else had this problem, and updating to 7.55 fixed it.

 

[SapphireExile]

Update to 7.55 via PUP and try again. I don't believe 7.51 is supported very well.

 

[a5723797]

Thank you all.
I tried Gold hen for 7.5.1 and STILL failed. Very frustrated.
After 2 days of struggling, it's time to break the rule and update, LOL

 

[a5723797]

Yeah, damn it, after updating to 7.55, everything works...in 3 minutes...

please don't use 7.51 .... at least atm

i used 7.51 and manage to remove all the padlocks using PS4 Xplorer.. renaming all .pkg from "fake" to "free"...
fakeFFXV.pkg
freeFFXV.pkg
