Proceeding his initial PS4 Remote Package Installer release, PlayStation 4 developer @flatz returns bringing an update to his Remote PKG Installer with the changes detailed below.

Download: remote_pkg_installer.pkg (4.1 MB) / remote_pkg_installer.pkg (Mirror) / RPI Controller.zip (161.09 KB) / ps4-exploit-host-win.x86-0.4.6b3.zip (4.99 MB) by @Al Azif via Twitter

To quote from flat_z's Tweets embedded below on the update: "Remote pkg installer update: added CORS header to interact with browser's ajax & deletion of temporary files in /data (last access date should be more than 3 days)"

"Up to date" with RPI installer using CORS headers. This version only uses HTML/JS, you must specify an external PKG list to list files as there's no server component (Line 47 rpi.js). Add the TMDB key, PS3 is same as PS4, to line 71 of rpi.js, to show PKG metadata automatically.

• https://ithaqua.thegate.network/themes/default/rpi.html

Device using this must be on same network or have port 12800 forwarded to your PS4
Corresponding selfhost- no need to add a pkg list, just stick pkgs in the pkg folder. Still need the key though. rpi.js is in themes/default folder. Make sure you update the RPI PKG and just visit http://yourexploitip/rpi
FPKG code have a bug that yields to game crash after suspend/resume cycle, so i've fixed it...

Since the PS4HEN 1.8 revision by @zecoxao (Twitter), PlayStation 4 developer @stooged combined that with PlayStation VR Payload support for jailbroken 5.05 consoles to @XVortex's PS4 HEN VTX in his latest PS4 HEN VR 5.05 update on Github!
