i can happily report preinstalled internal pkg worked for me without issue. My steps.

Load stock firmware on my 5.05 phat
install update from usb key in settings (recovery mode not needed)
Loaded to 6.72 exploited console and my preinstalled fpkg worked

I am still testing extended storage and stuff. I did an app2usb test that failed but a user later reported he got one to work.

Every Pre-Installed game from 5.05 doesnt work for me anymore.

I always get the Error CE-34878-0.

The later installed games on 6.72 works like a charme.

That's because of mira origin, if you run exploit with mira no HB (no homebrew) those 5.05 will work just fine as well as 6.72.

I need to give it a try, i use the ESP8266 xploit host .. there is currently only HEN available, then this is perhaps the rootcause :)

Not really related to the thread, you should have created a new one (after searching the forum for a previous similar question), anywho it's not related to the JB/exploit/HEN, it's what it says in the error message your HD lacks 20 GB of contiguous space the free space is probably fragmented and Orbis requires contiguous sectors. The fastest workaround is deleting an installed title of at least 20 GB or more, another methods you find mentioned on the Interweb is forcing a DB rebuild from recovering mode, but watch out as you can also find people moaning online that a DB rebuild wiped all their installed FPKGs...

If you ask me, the foolproof way is to delete all the installed titles and install them from scratch...

sorry, i posted here because i saw someone already asked the same thing, i have been looking but no answer yet, i already deleted more than 3 apps with 20+gb, rebuild the database with safe mode and reinstalled the pkgs and left me with 150+gb free and still gives the same error

Delete moar stuff! ^__~

Reading opinions from people with the same question, seems like Orbis requires a fixed percentage of free space on the internal disk, I would say around 10%...

And also, I'm not convinced that "DB rebuild" is a "defragment" utility, it takes too little time, I would say it only touches the app.db SQLite file despite the claims and suggestions I can find online.

Mm I don't think I've done a DB rebuild, but if it doesn't take an agonizing number of hours then it's not a disk defragmenter...
