Can I permanently install ARK-4 on Adrenaline?

OldGnashburg · Jan 27, 2025

I noticed in the ARK CFW wiki that actually installing ARK on Adrenaline isn't permanent. Is there a way to make it permanent? Seems the features on it are better than base Adrenaline.

No. But you can install it as a standalone or use bobble manager to autoboot into Adrenalin with ARK-4
Its very well documented on GitHub

Do not use bubble manager as it reinstalls an older unmainteined version of Adrenaline, instead, make sure to install/update to a updated to the latest version.

After that, rename ARK_Loader folder to BOOT.
Then you have to enter the Adrenaline's recovery menu and in the Configuration page, enable the Autorun program option.

i wanted the original XMB but ARK-4 permanently installed, so there is no way of doing this right?

EDIT:

The latest version of Adrenaline, the one recommended by ARK's git page loads a cfw already, going into the setting panel you can choose to boot up in AKC-4 mode and it just works

Ideally, you all should be using ARK-5, it was already officially released

Once you set the custom OS as ARK you can update it to 5, did it with no issues
