Greetings friends.
I humbly seek assistance with fixing PS4 issues I am having.
First, I will explain my situation:
I jailbroke my 9.00 slim PS4 console several months back and until now things have been smooth sailing. All of my fpkgs have lived and functioned perfectly right next to my official pkgs downloaded from the PSN.
The issue occurred after installing a new HDD in the PS4 as my old one was showing signs of failing and I wanted to be proactive about replacement to avoid losing any data.
Upon installing the new HDD and restoring the console via the PS4 internal backup and restore, all of my fpkgs work fine but my official pkgs no longer run and there is a lock icon next to each official pkg tile. I have been led to believe that this is due to a licensing issue.
I have tried to reset the PS4 as the primary active console as it was before the HDD replacement but the options are greyed out unless I connect to PSN.
I have attempted to fix the problem by using HxD on my entitlement.db file from the PS4 but the file appears very short and I am unable to find any mention of .json or .xml anywhere in the file.
I have seen the suggestion to obtain fpkgs with the original keystone for the official pkgs so that my existing game saves will work properly with them. I am unsure of how to do this though and any guidance would be greatly appreciated if this is truly the best/only method I have of keeping my game saves. I do still have the original HDD that the games functioned perfectly on if that could help me fix this at all.
I don't mind losing trophy data if it is unavoidable but I really don't want to lose my progress on so many games.
Please help me save my game saves!
