Hi

i tried to install a couple of games + update + DLC using vitashell.
I put app folder into the ux0:app, the patch folder into the ux0: patch path and the addcont folder into the ux0:addcont path.
Then i pushed Refresh LiveArea and Refresh Licence and the games appeared and they works. But any DLC isn't detected... i checked the DLC in PKGj too and they are marked with a whitebullet so it means that they are detected.

All the DLC downloaded with PKGj work perfectly. Only the DLC that i installed with the method described above, aren't detected. Please, can you tell me how i can solve this issue?

Do you think that it is needed the UPDATE too? I have only app, patch and addcont folders for these 2 games. I don't have the license folder. Is the license folder the game update? in PS3 when i run a game, i can check if an update is available and it automatically download it. Is this possibile with PSVITA games too? Is it possible to detect if it is available a game update and download it?

thank you!

I face the same issue, dude.
Even with DLC I got from PKGJ before.
The DLC won't be recognized if we don't download it from PKGJ for some games.

In my case, it's Shin Gundam Musou.
Usually I download the game outside from PKGJ, since the download speed isn't fast, some games provide the DLCs too and I just put it on addcont folder and refresh live area then open the game.
The DLCs are active yet it's different on Shin Gundam Musou.

When you click the game icon, before you click again to start the game, there are some icons on the top.
The two blue arrows is the one to check the game updates. If there's an update it wil have a orange circle icon.

ah, ok! good to know! many thanks!
The dlc will only work with the work.bin. check in sce_sys/package for it. There's some dlc in nps browser and pkgj that doesn't work due to that being missing. I don't know why it's even listed with it being incomplete.

Looks like the thread owner has the same problem like me.
In my case, I backed up all DLCs I got from PKGJ and they worked.
After reinstall the game and DLC, the game doesn't recognize the DLC I don't know why even I had refreshed Live Area and License also the PKGJ read the DLCs yet not the game.
To solve it, I delete the DLCs and redownload them again from PKGJ.
Just curious what makes them unrecognized by them game.

no idea why that happened unless something went wrong in the app.db. I don't know for sure if dlc is in there, but games and patches are.

YOU ALSO NEEDED TO BACK UP THE "license" FOLDER, OTHERWISE THE DLC IS USELESS.
