Hey guys, i really liked the Padcon function in Loadiine
And most of you know that we now can install games on hdd/nand
So i searched for Padcon without Loadiine, and found the elf in Maschell's github
And diced to make a "simple" icon and a xml
So we can just start it from Homebrew
for those who dont know this tool
here a little description

  • Padcon: Enable the "R3" button patch to switch the gamepage display ON/OFF. the touchscreen still work, only the display is disabled to save the battery when the display is not needed.


thanks @Maschell for this tool

You do not need XML or an icon to start from the HBL, all you did is make an icon and xml, what is the point?
dont talk to much master programmer of universe, then come on give us ps4 hax for latest fw or wait better send a huge amount of money from any bank to my bank account

The point is, there was no PADCON for the HBL! only for loadiine

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

What is the "R3" button? How do I switch the gamepad off with this?

EDIT: Figured it out. For anyone who didn't get it you have to click the right stick.
in the first post i said the R3 button :D

Quick and stupid question. Do I just copy the file to the root of my SD card? Then open it in HBL to activate it?

To turn on your screen, press the right stick again. To disable Padcon, Just switch off your console
