Method to install any retail pkgs (games, updates, apps) by using IDU OMSK Daemon on non-jailbroken PS4s
- This is a way to install any Retail PKG without the need of Debug Settings and/or any jailbreak. Note!: You still need to own your games and/or have a license for the content you wish to launch.
- The way it works is by utilizing IDU mode that is basically built-in every PS4's firmware. IDU (Individual Display Unit) is a mode used by Kiosk/Demo units found on game/electronic stores. Those do not use any special PS4s like TestKits or DevKits, and just use regular retail PS4s and use a IDU disc like this .
- Note!: Buying the disc is not needed!
- This method can be used on any firmware (>5.00), and does not need a jailbreak.
- Note!: TAKE BACKUP OF SETTINGS AND SAVE DATA BEFORE INSTALLING THIS METHOD, AS IT WILL REPLACE YOUR USER WITH A GENERIC USER1 AND IT WILL REMOVE EVERYTHING!
- Grab a USB drive, and format it as exFAT or FAT32 (FAT32 is not recommended because of 4GB filesize limit).
- Copy PS4 folder from "PS4 User1 Backup and Restore" to the root of the USB drive.
- Plug the USB to the PS4 and Navigate to Settings > System > Back Up and Restore.
- Select Restore PS4. Select OMSK Executable & Daemon restore file.
- Wait until it restores, after it's finished, you will see 2 new applications on the homescreen (★ OMSK Executable and ★ OMSK Daemon).
- Done. You can now sign in to PSN and it will automatically update User1 to your PSN profile.
- Grab a USB drive, and format it as exFAT or FAT32 (FAT32 is not recommended because of 4GB filesize limit).
- Copy all the contents of "USB Retail PKG Installer" to the root of the UBS drive.
- In "pkg" folder simply copy all your Retail PKGs. Note!: For digital Retail Games and Demos PKGs you also need to add .rif and .idx files in "pkg" folder.
- Back on the PS4, simply Open ★ OMSK Daemon. It will give a error, but it's still running in the background!
- Insert the USB drive to the PS4 and wait for a bit. You will soon get a progress notifications and all your Retail PKG will install in order.
- Done, when the pkgs are installed, simply close ★ OMSK Daemon by hitting Options button > Close Application.
- Note!: DO NOT remove/uninstall ★ OMSK Executable. The reason you do need it, it's because it acts like a FPKG placeholder, so that the official full OMSK wouldn't install and cause problems.
- ORBIS Patches Here you will find direct download links to every game update ever. It will show minimum firmware for the update. For big updates, simply grab the delta and all pieces and DO NOT merge them. Put all of them in the pkg folder.
- PS4 IDU Disc Dumps Here you will find all demos from the IDU discs with their licenses.
