Hey guys, i really liked the Padcon function in Loadiine
And most of you know that we now can install games on hdd/nand
So i searched for Padcon without Loadiine, and found the elf in Maschell's github
And diced to make a "simple" icon and a xml
So we can just start it from Homebrew
for those who dont know this tool
here a little description

  • Padcon: Enable the "R3" button patch to switch the gamepage display ON/OFF. the touchscreen still work, only the display is disabled to save the battery when the display is not needed.


thanks @Maschell for this tool

You do not need XML or an icon to start from the HBL, all you did is make an icon and xml, what is the point?
dont talk to much master programmer of universe, then come on give us ps4 hax for latest fw or wait better send a huge amount of money from any bank to my bank account

The point is, there was no PADCON for the HBL! only for loadiine

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

What is the "R3" button? How do I switch the gamepad off with this?

EDIT: Figured it out. For anyone who didn't get it you have to click the right stick.
in the first post i said the R3 button :D

Quick and stupid question. Do I just copy the file to the root of my SD card? Then open it in HBL to activate it?

To turn on your screen, press the right stick again. To disable Padcon, Just switch off your console

    I want a 120hz 4k tv but crazy how more expensive the 120hz over the 60hz are. Or even more crazy is the price of 8k's.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    No real point since movies are 30fps
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Not a big movie buff, more of a gamer tbh. And Series X is 120hz 8k ready, but yea only 120hz 4k games out right now, but thinking of in the future.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Mostly why you never see TV manufacturers going post 60hz
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I only watch tv when i goto bed, it puts me to sleep, and I have a nas drive filled w my fav shows so i can watch them in order, commercial free. I usually watch Married w Children, or South Park
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Stremio ruined my need for nas
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I stream from Nas to firestick, one on every tv, and use Kodi. I'm happy w it, plays everything. (I pirate/torrent shows/movies on pc, and put on nas)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What the hell is Kodi reposts? what do you mean, or "Wut?" -xdqwerty
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)
