secret about discussed stuff for 7.61 and below revealed... it's Welcome app, it's BIG

But that's not what KiiWii was talking about right, he said it wasn't app related. Also what does this do exactly, I never noticed that the welcome app was never on my JB ps5, never really used it much on my retail ps5, mainly just to check my controller battery. (also strange it would be locked, but astro's playroom runs from legit pkg, I figured all stock apps should)

Interesting post, are you working on something regarding efuses?
Dont be so cryptic, tell us

My problem is that I had the SWRR jailbreak on version 11.6. I loaded games using Shadow Mount. Almost nothing worked, so I deleted the games from the hard drive. However, the game icons remained on the home screen and won’t disappear, regardless of whether the hard drive is connected or not.

Now I’ve updated to firmware 12.00 and the game icons are still there. But the games can no longer be installed or played—probably because of those icons. I guees. Now i am using Homebrewlauncher instead of shadowmount and i am getting this screen.

Is there somewhere a place or folder on the PS5 where I can delete the remaining data from these games? Or a workaround? As you can see on my screenshot. The icon for Splitfiction is a random icon. There is no SSD plugged and the game is not installed anymore. But the "ghost icon" is still visible.
Astro Bot is evend not installed buth the full icon is visible and i am not able to install it again. And so on. There ar som other icons but deinstalled games

When i finished astro bot and deleted from external, i deleted via etahen menu and icon still was there.
Then on home screen just press option Button and select delete. Icon is gone.

Sorry, then i dont really know.
Didnt have that problem.
Just the standard ps home menu, select the game icon and press option button. Delete (or uninstall?) should be available.

Did you try remade database using recovery mode?

ShintaiUS · Apr 11, 2026

I wish people understand how important it is to stay on the lowest firmware posible. The moment you thought on updating to solve this issue (or any issue), you should have stopped and asked questions.

From what I have seen on some sources codes they seem to handle the installation process but not the removal. if you don't see the Delete option after pressing Options, I highly recommend to report the issue to whoever is behind ShadowMount, if you can, before doing anything else.

xalfie · Apr 11, 2026

the reason to don't be able to delete them is again etaHEN. I still have a rest of a game that was handled by etaHEN that I can not delete. I will try by hand via ftp. Just avoid the using of etaHEN all all.

I was on 11.60 and nothing works at this firmware for me and for some other guys i read at "X". No games and some other payloads. So i decide to upgrade.
New games that werent on my ssd are working. It's just this problem with the icons. Nothing more.

Hey guys, I think I messed something up with the jailbreak Y2JB Backup (MW) . I thought I was updating to version Y2JB 1.3 Genize, so I replaced the just one file on the console download0.dat. Now when I launch YouTube, the jailbreak stops at “Awaiting connection at 192.168.0.229:50000”.What should I do to restore it to the state where it was working properly?

you replaced the wromg download0.dat file in the download/1650 folder ^^
get the right one first.

Launch the YouTube app via the (Media) option at the top left in the XMB and note the IP address shown there.

Download NetCat
https://mega.nz/file/3NRyDYLb#2QLj3osh_qUnvhmj2cO9BnEPV7-WyMz4vF2bRM7-ox8
Download the lapse.js kernel exploit
https://mega.nz/file/yQhBQQSb#AAWfkXJZyeEYiK_W1QaQBt_J96WtvorVvmc9tzgEh_Q
Download the latest etaHEN (*.bin file)

Now start NetCat send lapse.js over port 50000 using the IP address shown in the YouTube app.

Once lapse.js has been successfully sent, then send etaHEN over port 9021 using the IP address shown in the YouTube app.

After that replace the rght download0.dat your you are good to go

I'm relatively new to the scene (or even using a PS5) and was not aware you could even do that.

This suggests it only handle game data and may not touch the system or the disc drive patch as it pertains to the BR player code/app.

I have the SWRR disc but I am not at home, I may be later in the day, and can try and check if it affects the drive patch, I doubt it but you can't be too sure.

I need to put some minds / tester together for testing METAL GEAR SOLID Δ: SNAKE EATER - PPSA15304.

For unknown reasons I cannot transfer a PC save back to the PS5. I can transfer PS5 saves to the PC. PC version does not seem to impact it. But once you load save and save again using the PC and transfer it you will get this message:

FTP Folder:

Garlic folder:

I'm trying to improve Garlic savemgr, but I need some testers. This is the only game I've run into that gives difficulties.

If you use the PC version your saves are stored here: C:\Users\{YOUR USER ACCOUNT}\AppData\Local\MGSDelta\Saved\SaveGames\{VERSION FOLDER}
I'm using PC version v1.1.4 = PS5 version 1.001.004 so my folder is called: 76561197960271872

PC save name = SaveGames1_0.sav > rename to ue4savegame.dpx.sav
PS5 save > to PC > rename ue4savegame.dpx.sav to SaveGames1_0.sav

I was checking the console ps5 slim that was always used with the vertical stand. From the first sting I felt that vertical stand is not well designed because is covering the down part where the console is extracting hot air, that is noticeable if you use the console in horizontal.

I can confirm that with the console in horizontal and without the vertical stand attached to it, the console is less hot and even the fan is much more quiet. I suspect that all is because the covering down part... So that means the official vertical stand by Sony is a problem.

About the liquid metal, there are tons images on inet showing the dry spots that appears in the middle and the top part of the SOC. Because the liquid metal when is hot, is always in the down part of the SOC. So... then ?

Anybody else tested this fact ?

This is strange behaviour and should not be happening. Firstly which version of the game do you have? Secondly which save are you using? Is it one downloaded from the internet ? Is it someone else’s save?

Valhalla is a DLC. Have you installed the dlc correctly?
